| Also, very few car companies will hire to you unless you're over 25... |

And 1 way car hire cost's and extra $200 or so...
And as Web said, if your on your P's or under 25, most likey forget it....
What some ppl i know have done is buy some cheap car, and drive it around, then sell it at your destination... :rolleyes:
Dont know how they sold it, but yeah.
Do cash converters buy cars? |

Well car rentals START at about $70 a day. This trip would take at least 1 week.
You might as well just buy a car!! |

Just a little FYI... here is what i am settling for www.travellersmate.com.au ... it turns out to be $45/day for 4 weeks.... coming to $1200.... this includes insurance, road side assistance (like they will be able to find me before I am dead), unlimited Ks, and camping gear (tent, stove, matress,bags, eskie,etc)
it is a 92 Ford falcon wagon..... I would like to buy a car and just run it into the ground but now I will not have to worry about selling and it breaking down |
