Hi,

I know that this has probably been discussed to death already, but I cannot find any relavent postings. So ... for those of you who have already moved to NZ, what did you do about cars? With hindsight, do you wish you imported a car? As with everything, there are so many different sides to a discussion, but with two children under 5 safety has to be a priority. Our main car here is a Cherokee Jeep, which we love, but is very heavy on petrol. We think we can bring it in (but still trying to confirm this), but feel torn between selling it here at a lower price, or biting the bullet to pay for it to be imported and so be up and running from the start. It would not be worth buying a car just to bring in, as we hope to be moving within a year. I know everyone has different priorities and expectations, but would appreciate views from those with experience of going through the upheaval itself.

Many thanks in anticipation,

Emily
