rexxxxy,
I just finished Bob's CPL course (then IREX) up in Redcliffe and commuted from Caloundra (45-50mins drive when the traffic is good), many other commuted from the Western Suburbs. I can say nothing but good things about Bob, it's well worth the time, money and inconvenience that commuting might bring.
If your planning on doing your ATPL's as well then Nathan Higgins @ AFT is the man to do it, I have yet to hear a single negative thing about him, though cannot vouch for him just yet as I won't be starting until May.
Both providers have home stay arrangements, which get you room, board and food for around $220 a week, not sure if this is an option, but quite a few people that live in Brisbane/Sunshine Coast did that so they didn't have to commute.
If you have any specific question feel free to PM me.
Best of luck
