Hi Fellow Kiwis.
It is not quite all beer and skittles is it.
I compared cost etc, re reg, Inc, etc before I bought a vehicle in OZ.
It is quite expensive there. My basic vehicle was over %10 after GST, dearer there.
Insc cost much the same percentage of value, reg much dearer, then realise 3rd party has to be paid to reg the vehicle, so in fact you pay 3rd party twice.
I thought the GST etc were in the initial cost of the vehicle, right there, hadn't calculated on the grinning female behind the counter saying that will be more than I expected /budgeted on,of some $4,000.00 more. STAMP DUTY.
Diesel prices are quite high even calculating the RUC that we have here in N.Z.
Never mind there is still a road/track I haven't been on yet.
Idiots around the heavily populated areas still appear to be the same where ever I have driven in other countries.
Have fun
There is a heap of nice people to meet once you get out there.
