Moving to Melbourne from UK this Friday

Hello All, just a quick note to say HI As my family and I will be landing in Melbourne on the 29th to start my 4 year 457.

Holden Commodore sportwagon SV6 is ready for me to collect from the dealers and need to grab a car for the Mrs. Then in due course a classic V8 and bike as things settle down in my new job over there.

Currently looking for a place to rent (short term let in place already) and getting school sorted for my two lads.

Can’t wait!

457 has been changed (24th April this year) into 2 year and 4 year visas but not abolished completely

457’s will stop being issued next year and instead a new type of visa is going to be created. Holders of 457’s will still be allowed to use them obviously.

If you're free on the weekend of the 1st Dec, there's a big Historic forest rally on in Lakes Entrance - about 3 hours north of Melbourne.

No turbos or 4wd, but lots of Webers gobbling fuel and air.
Our service crew could do with an extra body

Looks amazing! I’ll do my upmost to be there.

That collection does look good.

We’ve got settled into our permanent house and the kids are at school.

Bought the Mrs. a Mercedes and have been enjoying the Holden and cheap fuel.

Weather is hot (33c) and the traffic is terrible lol

Cheers! I have fond memories hooning around Sydney in a Huracan a couple of years back with a load of maclarens and Ferrari’s for company (a chum has access to Lambo’s through his work).

Where’s the car museum? Might bring my lot over to visit Sydney soon as I have some work going on there in a week or two.
