Smile car traders in brisbane or sydney

My husband and i and our 9 yr old son are moving to oz next uk summer.We can not decide brisbane or sydney. I am a student at uni and our main source of income is from our business which is car trading which is a good living in the uk, there seems to be a lot of restrictions in the car trade in oz.Is there anyone there who can throw some advice as we rely on this business for our main family income.Any experiences from traders welcome.cheers lindsay.

I cant offer any advice sorry but I can tell you that in Sydney there is a Car Sales Showroom everywhere you look - literally there are streets full of them (much like they were in the UK I suppose?).

Good luck with whatever you decide

I had a look at Nissans in Brisbane and the car salesman had not long emigrated from Surrey. He had a typical English name too - Mohammed Ahmood as I remember it!
