Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

It's not local to anybody else. You are definitely cocooned in your part of Australia.

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

Yeah, it was a shithole then and it's still a shithole. You can still find the dirty slappers there. Not a place I'd be taking kids to.

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

What did you expect from a Wetherspoon's pub? They are renowned for their el-cheapo 5 quid shit! That's why they are usually full of pensioners.

If Anybody likes Diesel jeans or similar designer clothing make sure you stock up in the UK. Diesel jeans retail in Australia for $500 - $700.

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

I lived in London (E2) and I had a shock when I arrived back in Melbourne, so as far as London is concerned I would say it is also a "YES!".

I especially couldn't believe the price of a pint. Some...

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

As you said:



Yeah, you won't get much of a 2 bed flat for $370/wk in St Kilda. Probably why there wasn't many viewing and everybody wants a balcony at least. St. Kilda has a tendency to have...

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

I was thinking of the areas that are in more demand like South Melbourne, St. Kilda, Albert Park, South Yarra and surrounds. There is not that high a demand for Brunswick.

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

I do believe the OP mentioned Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney. No mention of Perth.

The reason why there are rentals available in Perth is because no one wants to go there and after visiting for a...

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

And R&D. In fact, in motor racing more money goes into R&D for tyres than any other area.

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

Who writes the reviews? How many Toyo tyres do you see in motor racing?

Japs don't gererally make rubbish when it comes to electronic equipment and cars but they are not known for making tyres.

Re: Is Australia really THAT expensive?

Drive slowly!

What's more important, the cost of tyres or staying alive? Tyres are the one most important thing for a car. Don't skimp! Get a good set of Bridgestone or Pirelli. :thumbup:
