Hi guys,
As an update to our adventure with picking up the Van, i rang through last Monday to confirm with the Car Carrier Company that my car would arrive into Melbourne so that i could pick it up Friday morning when i fly in - all OK.
I then rang through on Thursday afternoon to see if i needed anything out of the ordinary to pick up my vehicle from their Melbourne premises, from here i was informed that my car was still sitting in Brisbane but was due to be transported that night down to Melbourne where i could pick it from them on the following Monday!!!!
Needless to say i was far from impressed having paid for Flights, taken a day off work & had my hopes up to see my new van. After many phone calls the Car Carrier Company agreed to transport my caravan from Geelong up to Brisbane for approximately the same cost as what it would have cost me in Fuel + Food for the trip up..
So i am still waiting to see my new van, I have been promised that it is going to be up to Brisbane on Wednesday for me to pick up - i told the Carrier that i am not paying for it until the van gets up here & if it is late i am deducting money from the cost of Transport.
This whole ordeal has me never wanting to purchase anything large from interstate again!
Bring on Wednesday!!!!

Hope it all works out for you.
Disappointing if careful plans are stuffed up by poor communication.
You never know, you might be smiling about it next week.

That is so unprofessional of a company. Sometimes a problem can occur where it may not be able to do what was promised but the company should inform the customer as soon as they know a problem exists. I would be more than annoyed and glad to see you have given them a serve. I just hope it comes together for you and you can soon put it all behind you and really get to enjoy your new van.
How frustrating! Glad you have managed to get it sorted. I'd have been livid! Not too long and you will have your new van. That should hopefully make the whole experience worthwhile in the end.
Pick up the Van today - cant wait.
Get to bring it home & re-pack all the camping gear back into it that is taking up our garage floor from after we sold the Swan.
Will post some picks tonight

Hi Guys,
Just picked it up - its like brand new. Couldn't have better things to say about Prestige Jayco & the experience that i have had with them.
I had to drop it off at home & head back to work so i couldn't get any photos - will take some when i get home + post them up.
Cheers

Oh yeah well done guys.
The wife and I where looking at one a few weeks back. We liked the layout but didnt like the finish on the outside, looked to old school.
If they finished it off in a smooth finish like the expanda's we would reconsider.
Have fun and safe travel's Enjoy!! Merry Christmas.

Yes, she's not the flashest around but one advantage of the composite sides vs Fibreglass is the light weight of the Van - Tare is only 1360Kg's
Well done @DLT. Good to see it made it home safely and is just what you wanted, Good luck with the mods, now get out and enjoy it.
