Hello everyone,

As some of you know I now work in Mile End and still live in Victor Harbor.

But a mate from victor has got a transfer with work up to town. He works at Castle Plaza. So our jobs are fairly close to each others. And we are thinking of getting a place together as it's better than driving 800 km a week.

Just wondering if anyone has any good places to recommend or suburbs. I know squat about adelaide.

I would prefer to be within walking or riding distance of where i work.

Looking at around the 200 dollar a week mark. So 100 bucks each.

Even if you know a real estate agent that would be willing to show us some places that would be good.

Looking at doing it in January.

Thanks.

Well, I reckon the east side is the best, being 15 minutes driving from the city in the morning during traffic and not having little groups of thugs walk around vandalising shit at night is kinda cool

try Richmond, Melroses Park black forrest and Daw park

Ascot Park, Edwardstown, St. Mary is close to his work but not the best area

rostrevor, athelstone, campbelltown area, firle, etc.

if i have to go the eastern suburb

I will live around burnside, max up to firle

any further north is only average surburb, not worth the travel (20mins)

yeh i live off montacute road..(rostrevor) pretty chilled suburb man, shit neva happens here, quite alot of drags up montacute thought from the forest ave lights, if u see a grey skyline represeting its me. haha most likely dragging a commodore

same dude, yeah rostrevors cool, not too far away from the city (10-11min drive to centre no traffic & 18-20mins during morning peak hour) and the best way to make your way to either old norton summit or montacute road cruises to have a bit of fun or a relaxing drive in the car.

Thanks for the replys peeps.

We are going to go to a real estate agent after work one day next week.

I'm getting a bit excited. I know i will miss being at home for a while but will be nice having to look after myself.

Good luck mate

Perhaps look into the Plympton area - close to Mile End and Edwardstown, near the tram line etc. Close to town and Glenelg, Anzac Hwy area.

Lol, I moved out when I was 17 and have never looked back. Rented for a little while down the 'bay prior to buying a small home. Hahaha, god that brings back memories, the crazy trippn midnight triathalon we had was a classic ! :(

I live in South Plympton. Got Castle Plaza about 5 min drive away. tram a 2 min walk from my house. train about 10 - 15min walk.

My g/f has just signed the papers for a place in glandore. About 45 sec drive from my place now. she is paying $120 a week for her place.

If your looking at something with public transport to and from the city i live in the middle of everything really.

Just a few suggestions

    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works!
