No freakin' way!!!
Well, Melbourne is where I will be staying!
Dad's brother and sister live there, so I will be staying with my cousin in his batchelor pad!
From the pics of the girls you posted I see I won't be bored!!! 
I may hire a car for a few days! What would you recommend?

If you have a international liscen, i recommand to go for a Holden Commordore, which is the sub-division of GM in Australia.
the lowest range is 4 door 175Kw V6, 3.8L, very powerful, its very common on Australian road, easy to get around...
then if you want to have a great Australian car that will turn heads then go for the 300Kw V8 HSV Commordore GTS. its quite expensive to rent.
its a shame that you came b4 i could set up my showroom... other wise i could of lent you a car with a good price...
next time to Australia find me.... if you have a email address, i'll give you my mob, if u need any help, email me or give me a buzz

I'll get in touch when I haved booked the ticket and have a firm date!
Looking at the 2nd week in January!
Not sure I would hire a Holden! A lot of car for just me!
Dad took some footage of a 355, Veilside Supra and EVO 6 when he was there last month!
I also got 'Unique Cars' brought back so I could check out the sort of things for sale!
You pay a lot for supercars eh! 
It would have to be a Skyline for me!
As for meeting up! You got a deal! I'll take my mobile over with me!

2nd week of Janaury??
I might be overseas..... but i might be going in December so i'll be back early mid janaury.
I don't think there is Skylines for rent... but keep in mind that it is not very cheap to rent a car to get around.
I'll give u my contacts when you comfirm ur flight.

I need to complete my MCSE here, other than that I can finalise all my work here and concentrate on moving somewhere we it doesn't rain everyday!!!

Showroom? If you don't mind me asking, what is your showroom for? Are you a car dealer?

lambo_boy, u say u recide in australia/melbourne, and your 18/19?
well I'll also assume that your on your p's but what really boggled me is how u manage to drive a lambo or f40 (don't know which ride u got now) under a p plate which under victorian law it constitute that if you are under your p u must drive a car within a power to weight ratio, which is 125kw per tonne.
how did u manage to find a workaround it? that's wot I wanna know, and since I bought this up, I'm sure many others too would like to know.

I am here for another month, and then I have to head back to England and sort a few things out!
I'll enjoy our summer there and hopefully come back in October for Bathurst!!!
