Guest nicdavidson7 Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 We are moving to Perth at the beginning of October and are needing a car! Can anyone give us any advice on where to buy a reliable used car or does anyone know of anything for sale? Many thanks! Nic & Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zaramatty Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 Hi, Nic and Chris, What is your budget for a car? do you want new or second hand? we arrived in Perth in may (from sunny Gateshead Tyne & Wear) and our priority was to buy a car, second hand cars do not lose there value, because of the hot climate they do not rust! don't be surprised to see morris minor's,cortinas and escorts still driving around. We decided to buy new, we bought a Kia Rio for $14000 (£7000) this came with all the toys-central locking,electric windows and the must air con and backed by a 8 year warrenty, i can supply information on garage locations and send your prices etc if you require. Just Remember Perth is not cheap!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long have you been over here? We are now in Kinross. Malcs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
