    Buying a new car is a massive waste of money. Buy used with low mileage and you get much more value for money.

      100% If you want something that is as close to new as possible you can get ex demo cars from the dealerships and can usually save a few thousand and you can usually take delivery of the car in a matter of days.

    One of the main reason why the uptake of Electric vehicles is low in Australia, is because our country is so large and the fuel range of EV cars with so low.
    Theyre a great option for people who live in inner city areas, but if you have a decent commute to work or like to travel on weekends, ICE vehicles are still a better option for most Australians

    Great video. With rego costs, the big difference in costs is related to the number of cylinders the car/truck has. E.G..it will cost more to register a V8 as opposed to a 4 cylinder vehicle.

      Not every state. for private passenger vehicles in victoria it is based on the risk level of the area you are in. ie. metro or rural. Other states it is either weight of vehicle or size of engine or both.

    Does Australia give consideration or loan assistance to newly landed immigrants in buying a car or a house since we don't have a credit rating yet? Do we need to build a good credit score first to get a loan or do we need to pay in full?

      Hi! Thanks for your questions! As mentioned in the video, I'm 99% sure that you have to have Aus citizenship or PR to access a car loan, but I recommend talking to your bank just in case :)
      edited: there's this article by finder that talks about car loans for temporary visa holders - it seems there're a few major banks that do offer loans but they have stricter eligibility criteria (www.finder.com.au/car-loans-for-temporary-residents) - either way, highly recommend talking to your bank once you're here :)

Having said that, I highly recommend checking the Department of Home Affairs website or contacting a MARA registered agent (only registered entities are able to provide visas or legal migration advice).

    • @ottigreenisgo
      @ottigreenisgo Рік тому +1

      When you go to buy the car the seller needs to have the registration paperwork on them. you will sign your name and amount paid on that form and you will lodge it (online or in person) That will transfer the car into your name. The old owner should also put in the notice of disposal. Only tranfer the money for the car in person where you can also write out a reciept even if its just hand written on a scap piece of paper.

There are people that will help to broker the deal for you if you don’t feel comfortable with the process. And I will always recommend getting a private mechanic to check over the car first to ensure it is a good car for the money
