    Is it all that bad? Please say it isn't!

    Car Shipping Advice from US

    We have our car here. Foreign licence. Every 3 or 4 months you have to leave the country (when you don't have residency); if you have residency you need to renew docs every 8 months. The shipping was not a problem, but don't put anything in the trunk. They made us pay for the old spare tires we...

    How do I buy a Car?

    We bought a car before we moved here, as a tourist. No DNI. No problem. Only make sure that the money you pay it with is official, if you pay in cash (which we did) you have to print a receipt showing you got it off an account abroad, or you should exchange it in an official office.

    What did I say?

    To me, a 'we should get together', or a 'ok; I'll let you know when', means 'I will never contact your'. a good answer would be, "ok, lets have a look at our agenda", and settle a date. and this is not argentinian. it is general. just call him back, and make sure to settle on a date before you...
