I think it works out cheaper to ship your car seperately as we did look in to taking my Passat with us, but much as I love her, she just isnt worth the $$$$ we'd have to fork out! There is a company West Country Way whose name escapes me ( It was in the back of Australian News) who quoted £895 plus VAT to ship to Adelaide.
HTH!

I am not sure I would take a car from the UK down under, I only brought mine back as the exchange rate was so bad at the time I couldn't bear the thought of selling my car for peanuts and then exchanging said peanuts for very few £s!!

Our car arrived in as good a condition as we sent it, oh and I will add, after our fears about import tax's etc, having done calculations using Oz import calculations, the final bill was no where near what we expected. (I should mention our car was a three year old Focus). We must have done a pretty good clean up prior to shipping, fully expecting to get a bill for steam cleaning - it didn't come!
