hi,
roadworthy cert is needed on all used cars..only lasts 3 months tho. when a person sells a car they must have the road worthy done, if not dont touch it, it is like an mot
all dealers should have it done, again do not touch it if it hasnt, unless you are good at taking risks
we tried buying a new car when we arrived, but credit company wanted copies of payslips (x3) so thats 6 weeks worth as you get paid every fortnight here. i wouldnt risk an application as if declined will affect your credit rating here, so direct effect if you want to buy other goods or a house.
be partient and wait till you get here
i would recommend fully comp insurance and break down cover we used BUDGET seem to be cheapest for us
hope this helps, its damn confusing weve been here 6 months and still finding out new stuff everyday
