    Hi @nadine im moving to canberra next year and was planning to buy a car immediately. Eligible ba magapply for financing kahit unemployed ka pa? As long as your bank acct has sufficient cash.

    It is okey, I secured a 2nd hand Honda 3 months back...

    Do you have a website? I have friends who may be looking for a ride as new migrants din sila, I can definitely recommend if maganda naman ang mga vehicles ninyo...

    Hi, we will be arriving on November and I'm thinking of getting a second hand car (probably an SUV or a wagon). Do you have a website where I can check your units? Regards.

    Hi folks, let's talk about your experiences in buying a car here in Australia...

    I have not regularly driven for the past 4 yrs as we were previously based in Singapore; cars are very expensive there but the good thing was that the transport system can practically take you around the small island. However I am very much aware that getting a car is really a necessity in Australia as buses and trains can sometimes be unreliable.

    We have set aside a small amount for us to get a car hopefully within the first 2 months upon arrival - plano namin a cheap (yet reliable) car so that it can be of help to us when we go around and for us to practice na rin with regard to our practical examination when we will be getting our license. Yung mga brand new car, saka na yun when we are already stable in Melbourne. Eheheh!

    Thanks! :)
    kung bibili ng second hand I advise to check ang history ng car. Kunin nyo lang ang plate number or VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) makikita yan sa registration sticker.

    then copy paste nyo lang dito:

    maalala ko lang ... kung bibili kayo sa dealer you need to know your rights .. like if kung me problem ibalik nyo agad sa dealer .... wag madali ....at check ng mabuti ang bibilhing sasakyan .... you can have it checked with a mecahnic to be sure

    (1)Park parallel sa servo
    (2) Turn off car
    (3) Hand brake
    (4) Open gas tank
    (5) Fill-up tank
    (6) Close gas tank
    (7) PINAKA-importante, magbayad! :)

    Price in the servo here are in cents; yung sinasabi mo na 140, it simply means $1,40/litre sya.
