I want to find a neighbour who is keen to car-share, because most of the time our's sits in the driveway (I worked out yesterday that we've done about 20000 km in the last 5 years -- including driving from Brisbane to Adelaide via the coast -- we don't use it much). That way we can share the expenses...<br /><br />Cheers, AngusAngus Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01518875828382696708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7762293635463803805.post-27017015658030144282014-11-26T00:55:20.843-08:002014-11-26T00:55:20.843-08:00Hi Angus.

But nothing beats the comfort of the country trains on the Bendigo line as they rocket into Melbourne at 130km/h. You can't read the ADR or fall asleep when driving, but you can on the train! It is frightening how much cars cost. I service mine regularly and fix it when it goes wrong, but mostly I'm going to try and run it into the ground (hopefully). Do you have a car? Cheers.
