I would like to bye or lease a car for my stay in Sitzerland for 1,5 years.
I know nothing about cars, but ould like to have a used one for ex. audi TT.
Does anybody know where is best to by: internet, garage or...and how the proces goes:like first by a parking place and then look for a car orvice versa.?
I would appreciale some advice on the car matter,so if any of you have experience with bying/leasing a used car....I would be very happy to hear from your.

Does the flat you rent also offer parking (underground)?
If so, and if you can rent one, you've solved that problem.
You will need to swap in your driving-license to a Swiss one.
If not now, you need to after 1 year or you have to redo the whole license from the beginning.
I guess yours is from Denmark, so it should just be an administrative act.
What do you want to do with the car?
If it's only for short-trips, you may be better of using car-sharing (www.mobility.ch), depending on where you live and if you have a place to park the car.
Cost for parking adds up - usually, 120 CHF upwards per month.
I think there are other threads about buying, importing a car.
And there's also this thread about insurances:

There are various sites for buying used cars:
www.ricardo.ch
www.car4you.ch
www.autoscout24.ch
Are there any leasing-experts around here?
I always thought this is only useful for businesses who want to minimize taxes without buying the car on credit.
