You can get Laid Up Insurance quite cheaply if it's to be in storage, but I'd be inclined to sell it. You'll probably be driving a Hilux after 6 months in the country.

Leave it with me. I will store it and give it a regular drive until you come back. Problem solved.

Sweet

As for the car. I do enjoy driving it for sure and its an awesome machine, but its not my dream car. Don't know if I even have a dream car at this stage of my life. As the topic suggests, there's more important things to me atm.

I might put it up for sale, if it goes before I leave, great, if not, I'll store it.

Its going to cost you circa $2k to store it for 6 months in rego, storage, insurance etc.

A replacement will cost you that just in stamp duty.

What is the other car? Sell both, buy a range rover and be king of the manor?!

It was a gift Steve, you're correct. But she is the same as me, she has no problem if we sell it.

If I sell it, I would get something cheaper upon my return. As many have said, there's no point getting a car of the same value when I get back as I would go backwards with stamp duty etc.

An EVO 9 perhaps?? haven't had an EVO before.
