Looks like I'm coming over!
Discussion
Subject to paperwork/visas etc, I have provisionally accepted a job in Oz.
Brisbane based but FiFo, 2/1 rotation.
Hoping to get the details sorted before Easter, then plan to arrive around May. O/H will eventually come, she needs to finish her qualification in the UK and sell her house first, so I'll be on my own for a while (as I currently am in the Middle East).
Looking for this move to be more permanent & more of a lifestyle choice than the money-oriented decision to go to the Middle East.
Bonus is I can import the TVR too!!
Anyone else in Brisbane? I had a search through old posts but didn't see anyone.

Is the TVR with you ? You will have to supply evidence of use in the country of registration for a year for a personnal import. I had to supply evidence for the 2 weeks I was at Le Mans to qualify for a years ownership - not an issue if its in the UK and used by TOH !One here. I'm in the Gold Coast hinterland.
About 60Km by road south from the centre of Brisbane.
As I presume your requirement is to be within commuting distance of Brisbane airport, you'll actually have the choice of beach city or bush, any where in South East Queensland. Give yourself plenty of time to look around.
Oh, & welcome.

3 years ago it was not ccompulsory to have the speedo in kph, however I had mine changed over whilst being serviced at TVR Power just before I left. Still prefer the look of the mph ones but its so much easier not having to convert from one to the other especially with the number of police on the roads.

Matt,I wonder if you are coming with the same crowd that I am thinking of and in talks with? Its preliminary at the mo with the Recruiter but may have interviews over the next month or so.
They are looking at Comm Managers for two "hubs": Perth & Brisbane.
Ring any bells?
