Let me be the first to agree with dibbers!!

[robm3]

Thanks Lads, I feel like I've won the lottery

[Smiler.]

I hope you sit on a funnel web, ya bastid

[Justayellowbadge]

So you'll have to sell the Ultima and M3?

That'll hurt.

If you can find anything similar they'll be what, twice the price?

[zac510]

What, no Dacia Sandero?

Nice attack. Might have cut a hole in his sails, the lucky b'stard.

You're right, certain cars, namely BMW's, Jags, Mercs are around 2 to 3 times the price 2nd hand that we get here.
Soooo I'm taking the 6 series with me

Selling the GTR closer to the time though as need to free up some cash for the relocation (GTR, now with VXR 6.0ltr engine, AP brakes etc...going cheap)

Enjoy driving absolutly everywhere at the posted speed limit or below.

May as well buy a Prius right now for all the enjoyment you'll get out of motoring over there.

Steady on - don't give him the roast beef ones. He's desperate, not a charity case.

Again, you're right.

This has been a major negative for me!

However....... dual licenses so when it suits I'm a Brit Tourist

Also, think of the fuel economy

Nothing, no nothing can bring me down today not even my slow Aussie countrymates, their ponderous driving and draconian speeding laws enforced by Judge Dredd wannabees.

[V8S]

Just think of all that extra expense on sun tan lotion. And... um... you git.

[GTIR]

So it's not really a case of a lucky Brit getting a dream job in a cool location at the start of summer it's a bloody winging Ozzie buggering off back home after drinking our beer and shagging our women!

Good riddance you fair dinkum, Ozzie rules loving, V8 raping, koala humping, thong wearing, NZ ugly cousin!

Say hi to my ex wife while your there.

How did you get the Brit one wihtout forfeiting your Aus one?

[Soovy]

I am constantly staggered by how many Autralians are here, given how keen they are to go back "haaaaaaaaaaame".

[Carfiend]

They are just going walkabout.

[BoRED S2upid]

Hmm let me see leaving an M3 and Ultima with the Evo triangle 2 hours away for forest fires deadly spiders and one of these
