I have no idea about that, my bat was bought thanks to backing Delta Blues in the Melbourne Cup a few years ago.

Now, if they sold talent I'd be in the market for that.

I became a tax exile after Kevin07 got in.

I remember the fun under the last Labor government.

What's that got to do with second hand cars being more expensive here?

I'll give you a little bit of advice - Just keep your opinions bottled up because they are generally irrelevant if this topic is anything to go by.

Yeah sounds like you might have burst a main the way you have been going on, best jump on the boat and head home to get it sorted.

You keep banging on and on and on about how cheap cars are in another country. How is the price of used cars in another country relevant to anybody "Quitting Aus due to High Cost of Living"?

I'm back in the UK in November.. I'll put a couple on Mini's in my hand luggage. Apparently I can pick them up for the price of a couple of schooners down the pub here.

Cost of a car is cost of living right?
