New And Used Car Prices

Q.weve heard that car prices are expensive in oz compared to uk. can anyone shed any light on this and where would we get a good 2nd hand car deal ? do they have autotrader or equivalent ?

A.Have a look at this site: http://www.redbook.com.au and http://carsguide.news.com.au/ or http://www.carsales.com.au/ As for "a good 2nd hand car deal ? " You're as likely to get one in Australia as you are wherever you live! In other words - Y'a gotta be jokin'. Buy privately. Check out the big classifieds newspaper wherever you move to (Courier Mail in Brisbane). Usually the Saturday edition. There'll be thousands of cars. Remember you will need a REVS check (available for a small fee on the net 24/7) and a Roadworthy Certificate for the car. Join an auto club - RACV, NRMA etc - they will help you avoid being ripped off!
