[VX L67 Getrag]

I'm just on my way back to melbourne Aust.

Had a lovely 2 weeks(almost) in NZ started at aukland went to red beach 2 nights then 2 nights at kerikeri then 4 lovely nights at paihai, followed by 3 smelly nights at rotorua to finish back at aukland!

Invested 5k into the economy & travelled around 4,000 kms in a nice little Toyota sprinter se vintage, lol wasn't too bad but cruise control would have been nice! Best full tank got was 658kms out of 43.88 litres & 91 octane was around 2.10 per litre!

I will follow up later with activities if anyone interested?

Cheers VX L67 Getrag

Not sure whether it's true or not but someone when I got back over here said they don't pay for rego & add that cost into there fuel?

$2.189 / L for 95 octane fuel, $287.75 / year rego (mostly ACC, there's a lot of this in the fuel price too). Plus the twice yearly warrant of fitness checks...

Once you get out of town fuel goes up too, paid $2.439 / L for it the other week.

Rego drops drastically once the vehicle is over 40 years old though, hanging out for that in 2016
