2013 Jeep Compass Sport 4x2, 5 Speed Manual.

28,500 Klms, Rego and CTP are paid until Jan 2016.

Car has additional extras - Parrot Bluetooth media system, tinted windows and black 17" alloy wheels.

Car was purchased in March 2014 from Suttons City Rosebery -

I purchased the 3 year servicing package, which will be transferred to the new owner, and will take the dealer service history upto to March 2017 ⁄ 72,000Klms, 2 services per year or every 10,000klms (Inc one of the cars major services which would cost around $1000).

Also when I purchased the car I was given 3 years car washing at Suttons city rosebery site, which will transfer with the car.

Car has standard aircon, remote locking and alarm, electric windows, heated seats, cruise control, etc.

Selling as we are getting a company car for work.

$20,990 O.N.O

Good luck with this one!

we have double that amount and are struggling to find a home that is not in a complex with strata fees, etc.

So i can big up Sans Souci because i live there. Airport noise is fine in Sans Souci (I wouldnt live in Brighton Le Sands if you want low noise)

To get in the city you either get the bus which is around 45/50 minutes, or the train from Kogarah which is about 20 minutes and the bus to and from Kogarah is about 10 minutes.

The area itself is lovely, local shops Coles, Superburn within walking distance, great local butcher at Ramsgate shops. Ramsgate has an organic foodies market every saturday which is a great place to pick up for good gluten free / palio food.

The beach is nice, lovely walking along on a night, gets a bit busy on a weekend with west'ies.

Brighton Le Sands is about a 45 minute walk with lots of nice restaurants.

Swimming at the beach in netted off areas or there is a local leisure centre near taren point bridge which has an olympic size pool.

People in the area are friendly, but the house prices are sharply on the rise!

Westgate at Miranda or Hurstville is around a 15 minute drive, Cronulla is around a 20 minute drive and the airport is around 10 minutes drive.

We also paid 6 months rental upfront and got a rental house with no problems!

We are a young married couple who have been living in Australia now for just over a year. Myself (29) and my wife (28) moved over here together in Sept 2012 and have managed to gain stable full-time employment.

We are looking to find some local friends, round about our age, to go out for drinks, coffee or whatever.

We had a problem when we arrived here.

Neither me or my wife could get a job in our field. In the end i accepted a non-skilled job to get by.....we did both get jobs in our feild eventually

I would agree, If you are willing to live in Cambeltown i would rather travel the little bit extra and live in Wollongong!

Hi guys i am wondering if anyone can reccomend the best way to send back 1 box to the UK

I would imagine it will be 40 x 40 x 40 and about 6kg.

Its Christmas presents so i have a good 2 months for it to get there.

Even if i have to break it down to a few seperate packages, that will be fine also.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Phil

Yes you can get home delivery service from Wollies in Caringbah, but it does cost $13.99 if you spend $99.

You can do click and collect aswell.

You will be a short bus ride from Westfields Miranda - they have a Wollies, IGA, ALDI and various other independent shops. round trip bus fair will be around $6

I believe he can but he will be limited on the jobs he can do on a WHV.....also he is resricted on weekly hours

Welcome and good luck.

Hope things work out well for you!

We are southern sydney near the airport, if you need any advise just send through a message

We took ours on the plane with us.

we didnt drain the hydralic fluid, but we did replace the tyres for new ones so that we didnt have any arguments in the airport.

We also scrubbed the bikes beforehand

also there is a skate park at olympic park if your kids are into that!

Allison take the coast road to wollongong (1hour from where you are), nice drive and the beaches in wollongong are nice.

Blue Mountains are a nice (3 hour drive)

or if you can drive to Kurnell and go to the national park and watch the whales migrate

http://www.ozforex.com.au/ <- best exchange rates & its free if you are exchanging A$3000 or more

transfer money back to your uk account aslong as you still have the card

Most companies over hear like to ring and get a direct reference so they talking to the company/manager you worked for. My wife had written references and no companies would accept them.....also they didnt like e-mail references

If your manager is nice you could ask for a contact number for them to ring direct for the next year or so.

good luck!

Hope you enjoy Australia......

I think it might be a bit dependent on where you live in sydney.

Basically we are south sydney and we dont really get many spiders (I mean we get a few little redbacks on the garage door, but thats about it).

Try NRMA they are very established and well priced.

They give you quite large discounts for insuring your home contents, car and CTP with them.

Just realised that my UK passport is due to expire in March next year.

To renew it from Australia is going to cost $282.21....WTF!! :arghh:

Congratulations.

Big move hope it goes well for you!

gumtree is probably your best bet.

you will be able to find a share house within 15 minutes of the centre from between $100pw to $300.

However if you want to be really flash there is apartment shares in the city for around $350 to $550.

I have found that virgin are good for fixed price $19 (your get $250 credit and 250mb data)

To txt the UK i have used Whatsapp messanger, it uses a tiny bit of data instead of credit (also you can send pictures through it for no extra cost). Also if you have a smartphone you can connect it to your wifi whhen in range and it doesnt even use your mobile data.

When we arrived we got Telstra phone and internet.....but it is expensive and a 24month contract. I paid my way out of the contract and signed up with YesOptus 300gb internet, homephone and tv for $110 a month for 12 month

Hello and welcome
