Now that's worth looking at.

Somewhat useless to post though, on account of being pick up only...

Melbourne is only  800km from me, and about 6000 from HaaTA.....

Just make a shopping weekend trip out of it, 800 km isn't too far. And from the looks of it, it's a pretty flat route (i.e. no mountain passes).

Driving through the rockies so many times, that's not really all that far.
That's like Prince Rupert to Prince George (first city larger than 20 000 on the route to Edmonton) [~730 km through the Rockies].

My advice though, don't go to Prince George, it's the ass hole of BC. Prince Rupert is nice, but its always raining.

Ah, so that's why it took so long for the Model M parts to reach trievalot. Kangaroo post is to blame.
