your going to WA aren't you, better get your A/C serviced heheh and better get used to cheaper fuel, i don't know what prices are in WA but here in QLD i pay between $1.45 to $1.49 a litre for diesel, and i think hi octane petrol is about the same per litre

so probably a fair bit cheaper than you pay in UK

registration is around $1000 per year for a V8 around $800 for a 6 cylinder

and i pay around $1000 for insurance.

get your self ready for some serious heat , probably dont bother bringing all those big thick jackets, just going to be taking up space hehehe

best of luck with the move, and keep us posted
