    <blockquote id="quote" class="ffs">quote:What are the problems as a resident are you suggesting? I have never had a problem with any cars that i have owned. I pay the tax, i pay the insurance around $1,500 for 2 vehicals each year (and i use Tower Hill they were a lot cheaper than Geico and Progressive)

    To hire a car in Florida is cheap, but to insure a car through hire companys is expensive. If you are in Florida a lot then it is cheaper in the long run to buy a car and leave it in the garage whilst your not here.

    The problem for residents, as outlined above, is simply getting good insurance cover at a reasonable price. I personally wouldn't drive a car without at least $1million liability.

    It might be expensive to insure through USA rental sites. However as a tourist you can rent a car from this site with full insurance(SLI/CDW/UMP) etc for around $200 a week. (and there are cheaper methods if you stay long periods). I spent 18 weeks in Florida last year in six trips, and for a Compact or bigger spent under US$3,000.

    You are a resident. Try and get decent insurance as a non-resident for any reasonable price, then consider depreciation, repairs, tax, loss of interest on capital/HP charges. Are you saying you can run a car for that sort money($3,000) in a year? What would be reasonable? $5,000 minimum I would say.

    Then there is the cost of getting to and from the airport 12 times.

    I maintain it is certainly not "cheaper in the long run to buy a car and leave it in the garage whilst your not here." With the very cheap prices available from UK, not even if you were on a six month stay.

    And anyway who wants the hassle of owning, when the alternative is so trouble free.

    Hey, all i want to do is sell my car. I am getting upset that you say who wants the hassle of owning, when the alternative is so trouble free.
    That is your opinion, and you now have a place in a different area to put your views.

    As you requested I opened another thread.

    You then asked me further questions on this thread and I replied. If you didn't want a reply on this thread you should have asked your questions on the new thread.

    Also as this is a forum, if you make disputed statements(it is cheaper etc,) it is reasonable IMO for that statement to be countered.

    i haven't actually asked any questions. I appreciate another thread concerning buying a car in Florida. But i cannot answer any of the questions posted on there. So a thread i started, and something to do with my car, is inaccessible to me.

    I opened the thread in the Villa owners forum as I assumed that it would only be of interest to those owning a villa - perhaps the mods might like to move it.

    If it is of any interest the thread contains nothing about your car and in fact adds little more than on this thread.

    By the way if you care to look back you will see that you did pose a question on this thread after I opened the new thread.

    If anyone else is interested in a nice condition 4 seat convertible I can tell them that I have testdriven this particular car, it drives well, I could find nothing wrong with it, it has a pretty new top and tyres and drove like new.
    The Sebring convertible has more room in the back than the Mustang and is quite economical and durable. Good value too as there are a lot of them out there.
    If it had been a bit less I would have had it there and then but due to my partner making a wrong banking decision most of our dosh is tied up in an account until July and we would have to pay a stiff penalty pn the whole lot to get any of it out.
    Still if anyone wants some decorating done in Florida in March I might then be able to afford it, I do a nice job at a very reasonable cost.
