    If it wasn't for the fact that I want something bigger next time round, this car would be top of my shopping list. Still waiting for a local review though, so many good Euro cars completely fail when it comes to Aussie roads (hello Audi...)

    Yeah buy both. You'll be able to finance it through your home loan and you'll be paying a lower interest rate and over a longer term. Not seeing too many down sides.

    nah, been here for 4 years thought why keep paying heaps of rent (dead money) and buy a nice place on the river in central London so i did Feb 05, will make good money when we return home in 6 or so years, the car came afterwards, had a H SRi 5 door at time of buying apartment but the VXR was a need lol and 3 months after driving out of the dealership i gotta say i made the right choice after testing a few of its competitors, worth every cent, i have kept the mortgage and personal loan for the VXR seperate at 6% i cant complain.

    I will be coming back home though, the money is worth staying for the time being and the car club scene over here is great
