To add some car related chat...
I was in Melbourne for the F1 recently. Is it the Merc C63 capital?! They were everywhere! Far more than I see in sleepy old Adelaide. They sound immense. But the best of all was the pace car or whatever it was on track. Estate version and surely had pipes because it was loud!
Newcastle appears to be home of Maserati and Merc AMG. I see more here than I did living in Mosman. I was in Melbourne for the F1 recently. Is it the Merc C63 capital?! They were everywhere!

Outside of capitals there is more disposable income due to lower housing prices, so I think people have more interesting cars.
I'd love a decent motor but the reality is owning a nice house or nice car. I bought recently In Brighton and having the beach so close more than makes up for driving a 12 year old Honda CRV which give her her dues she's a trooper and costs Nowt to run. Plus having a decent car here is a waste as the mongs who inhabit the roads here at a cut above any driving population in the fkwittery stakes.

I'm lurking but in general I find the Australia section pretty boring. :O
It used to be a lot more active on here but then I flounced off and a few people drifted away and others have left Australia.To be honest in Perth we meet up a fair bit, it is just organised outside of the forum and not held as a 'PH Beers' type thing as we are all friends.
