    Did same trip in April.

    $170 for a Melb to Coffs flight on Virgin (Direct flight on Saturday .)

    OVernight in Crappy motel $50.

    Driving a Series 3 Diesel in 23hours to Melbourne - Priceless! (Quicker in a 130!)

    Seriously, there are plenty of transport companys about - can't recommend any in particular but they will cost you $500 to $700. depending on whether you go depot to depot or home delivery.

    Look at getting it in an empty (back load) container and it will probably be a lot cheaper than a vehicle transporter.

    Virgin Blue, Sat 10th DJ1127, $259. https://bookings.virginblue.com.au/s.../skylights.cgi

    THat's a direct flight too. That only took me 5 mins, hunt around - you may get one even cheaper if you are prepared to fly at crappy times.

    I haven't checked Qantas - I don't think they have direct flights.
