  1. Can anyone point me in the direction of some social work recruitment agencies in WA, or advise me of the best websites to use to search for social work jobs. 

    I see lots of social work roles on the East Coast being advertised on SEEK, Indeed and Linkedin but very few for WA. 

    Any help/advice much appreciated.

    logo-180.pngOk I've been having a tinker with this for a little while and think I've got it pretty close. I've developed an Excel spreadsheet that provides an estimate of whether or not your car is

    Category A: definitely worth bringing, you'll do nicely out of it when the time comes to sell

    Category B: only worth bringing if you love the car and/or plan to keep it for a while

    Category 😄 not worth the aggro, you're better off selling it in the UK

     

    *Disclaimers* - the estimates are based on the following:

    1) using our most complete 'A Package' service at AUD990 (it's set up for our customers, obviously!)

    2) using RORO shipping from Southampton (does not include transport to get your car to the port)

    3) the current GBP/AUD exchange rate

    4) an estimated Australian Customs value calculated for your specific vehicle

    5) includes customs duty, GST and LCT where necessary

    6) a set figure for customs clearance (which I've deliberately set higher than what they normally come in at)

    7) includes the cost of Australian Customs valuation and transport to the workshop once cleared

    😎 includes allowance for the minor modifications needed before registration

    9) includes road registration and stamp duty costs (for a "no surprises" all inclusive cost estimate)

     

    As you can see, I've tried to be as upfront about the costs of getting the vehicle to Australia, and I have actually over-allowed on what many bills come in at. There are a heap of variables in here and each car is different, so don't be disheartened if you get a category C - the calculator isn't meant to be the ultimate authority, but it will give you a fair guide.

     

    What I need from you:

    - year of manufacture

    - make, model & variant

    - body type (coupe, convertible, etc)

    - engine size & fuel type

    - transmission

    - drive type (4WD, front wheel drive, etc)

    - mileage

    - any special features, options or modification

    - does it have aircon

    - realistic current UK market value

    - Australian RedBook value (www.redbook.com.au - click through to the page with 'Private Price Guide', 'Trade In Price Guide' and 'Price When New' listed, then tell us the 'Private Price Guide' range)

    - Australian market value (http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/search.aspx - search for the closest matching vehicle)

    - which Australian state/city

     

    Please note when you are searching that most Vauxhall, Opel and some Chevrolet models will be badged as Holden in Australia.

     

    Let's test it out :biggrin:

     

    **Please note, our responses will normally be just an A, B or C. If you want a full breakdown of costs, you'll need to email us via our website***
