i bought a car sa Page 15

Congratulations on your new set of wheels in South Australia! If you're wondering what to do next, here are some quick pointers:

• Make sure to transfer the registration to your name via Service SA.
• Get a thorough mechanical inspection if you haven’t already—because surprises under the bonnet are rarely pleasant.
• Consider insurance options; comprehensive coverage might save your bacon.

If you want to brag or grumble about your purchase, forums and sites like Tradingpost can be oddly comforting. Remember, buying a car is just the start of a love-hate relationship.
