DrDougster Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I emailed Iron Lady a few weeks ago and no response. Are they still in business? Any other recommendations for car shipping? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a phone number on the website, give Kristian a call. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laf Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I've requested a quote from Iron Lady. Their website estimates seem very reasonable compared with the cost of pets and containers! I presume people think it's worth it to ship their vehicles. Ours is fairly new and would be nice not to have the hassle alone of shopping for a replacement.

Ours is fairly new and would be nice not to have the hassle alone of shopping for a replacement. Actually it's the opposite. Most people find it's not worth shipping their vehicles. Shipping goes by size, so in general, the bigger something is, the more expensive it is to transport and so it becomes less worthwhile to ship it. Of course, cars are a high value item so it can be worthwhile, but you also have to check whether it will need expensive modifications to meet Australian requirements, and also whether you'll be able to get parts and service if your model isn't sold in Australia. Iron Lady will let you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other recommendations for car shipping? My apologies, I have been under the pump lately and have probably missed a few. Feel free to message me here and I will go back and find your enquiry. We have had numerous issues recently with a different area of the importing regulations, which ended with a threat of legal action against the federal government to compensate for loss of income, then subsequently an amedment to the legislation to try and fix it. A good win for the industry, but a huge 'time soak' from my side! Not sure if any of you are interested, but media articles below. https://premium.goauto.com.au/vehicle-importers-threaten-to-sue-feds/ https://premium.goauto.com.au/imported-car-delays-to-be-fixed/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
188BFirst Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 We are very attached to our cars, aren't we, and tax implications and considerations make it a difficult but necessary consideration. Where can I read up on this topic, who qualifies, what are the rules and the tax implications? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
