View Full Version : New to Oz.
Just thought I'd say hi...
Moved to Melbourne from Auckland a few days ago...
Loving it so far... low humidity, nice and hot.... In general a better place to live :p
Finding it mega hard to find my way around, it seems to be huge...
I live over in St Albans 3021 not too far from that Watergardens mall place
Never know might be easier once my car coves over from NZ next month :D !
Only bad thing is that the beer is so expensive... 24 pack of Heineken is like $55 where as in NZ you would get 36 for the same price

Oh sweet vtakk!
If ever I wanted a Honda wagon, that would be top priority! I like the interior too & the rear windscreen wiper looks like it's just floating there in the glass. Looks great Drew, bring another one over if you can ;) ...Those things are uber rare over herrre.

A lot of cars are just taken to granted in New Zealand because of the really relaxed import regulations...
That and finance is attainable by anyone; hell they would even give finance to an infant if he could sign the papers :thumbdwn:
