Hi Sharon, Thanks for that reply, gives me somehowe a bit more confidence coming over.. 45 sales a month is pretty good! How many cars where there in stock? What brand did you work for? What did they do with the trade ins? I've got so many questions..my mind is sometimes working overhours! If you prefer you can send by PM Thanks in advance..Steven

Thats a good idea! Thanks!

Thanks for that! I'm more keen on how the market is at the moment..hope there's someone out there who can shed a light. Any other info is welcome ofcourse... Thanks Steven

Hi there, Me and my wife are soon moving to Adelaide. We have a car dealership in Holland wich has been good for the last 7 years. Only the last year has been up and down... I am wondering if anybody knows how the market is at the moment and has been for the last couple of years? we sell secondhand cars up to 15k ..and want to continue/start the business in Oz. Is there someone who started a dealership, would love to get some info. Thanks Steven

How will they check or verify that it's been in your posession for 12 months? Will a sale contract for example of a dealer be enough? Or do the regopapers have to be in your name?

That's sounds good! Let us know how you get on. Steven

This link shows you the process it will take. http://www.infrastructure.gov.au/roads/vehicle_regulation/bulletin/importing_vehicles/general/index.aspx If you are a owner of a vehicle for less then one year, you have to pay tax ofcourse...Still cheaper then buying in Australia Steven

Have you got any news TeamV? I've been looking into secondhand motorhomes in Oz and compairing prices with the UK. It seems well worth it shipping it over from the UK. Somewhere next year w'll be looking to buy one in the UK, drive it back to Holland, and ship it to Oz. Steven

Thanks for sharing that info TeamV. Why don't you buy a spare set of wheels of eg. a Vw Polo (15inch). I think they would fit from a new model (2011). Steven

I've been searching for a topic about shipping a campervan over for a while.. We are thinking of buying a mobilehome frome the UK and shipping it from The Netherlands (were we live). Mobilehomes seem to be much cheaper in europe and a lot more modern then Oz. Wich shippingcompany have you been looking at? Steven

Same here please;)

HI there Karen, You only have to submit the the docs online if you apply for an online visa. You do not have to send a hard copy what so ever. If you are getting extra points for work experience, I would submit payslips from 3,5 years back and 1 of every 6 months from then on. That will do! Good luck! Steven

Holy mother...congrads! Thats so fast! Hope it will be as fast with us!
