Take the M1, the whole way. I used to do this trip every year, sometimes a few times a year.

Don't speed, even if you're in a queue of cars speeding. If you have P plates, you'll be the first person to get nabbed.

It's about a 7 hour drive.

Via Albury is probably the fastest but via Perth would be far more scenic.
