They were 80K new. 20K loss in a year and 20,000kms. It is a UK import though.

Not really sure if the owner of this Audi V8 knows how rare their car is, considering it has a number of tacky incorrect badges...
Also for the VW fans, photo includes my dad's Syncro Tristar

Lambo Gallardo on the Harbour Bridge shoulder by the Ponsonby off-ramp with a blown right rear tyre, the sidewall looked about as flimsy as the kevlar beaded tyres on the MTB!

Yeah, it's back on the road after sorting electrical issues which is great, but too be honest, I don't get to drive it that much anymore.  (which has it's pluses and minuses).  The wife and I drive to work (via daycare drop off) together and it's easier to chuck the kids into the old beater Hilux.

RS4 is still waiting for parts (new turbo cartridges) - head and top end work is all done and I'm getting gearbox rebuild parts from overseas (may as well sort that 1 > 2nd sticky collar issue while the engine is out!  Plus it'll get a new cambelt, water pump and most likely clutch. 

[/URL]

Then I plan to rotate between the 2 and the 4 - but it looks like they'll only get the occasional weekend run)

We're also looking at a 7 seater still and I also think I want to buy a Leaf - SACRILEGE!  (we live so close to work , all the short cold runs won't be doing the cars any favours!).

Tesla Model X in the carpark at the Y on Akoranga Drive, I think the driver works for Tesla from the way he was talking to his mates, asked him to open the back doors actually very cool in the metal

Saw 2 Red Ferraris (one a 458?  And something else) in Petone closely followed by a yellow Mclaren. 

Didn't realise how wide the 458 was!
