Gas hob, 900mm: Ilve H39BCV with barbecue grill
ILVE H39BCV gas hob, 90cm, stainless steel finish. One wok burner, one medium hob, two small simmer hobs, Central electric barbecue grill.
About 10 years old, $1500 new; has been in storage. Confirmed the 4 igniters and electric element work fine. I'm not 100% certain but I'm fairly sure it is set up for street gas supply (i.e. not LPG bottles, which would require a set of different injector parts, available from ILVE). Comes with a bag of scoria stones for the barbecue unit. Medium hob cap and knob handle missing; can be replaced cheaply enough by phoning an ILVE dealer (e.g. Harvey Norman) or a good gasfitter/plumber.
Driven On The Akatarawa Rd Lately?
If so, its good to know you are still alive and reading this.
We have a function to go to over Christmas up that way and having heard a few hairy stories about the road, I went up there on Thursday to check it out. The road's ok, narrow and winding, but not much worse than a Wellington hill suburb. What was pretty scary was the behavior of other drivers. Three vehicles heading the other way at speed would have crashed into me if I hadn't been pulled off the road. I had pulled in to check the address when a truck came flying past, taking up all of the narrow road at speed. There is no way the driver would have been able to stop had they come around the corner immediately in front of me. The other two drivers came hurtling past as I had turned in to turn around and come back down the hill. They were also driving at speed and taking up most of the road. Coming back down I passed another car coming up and estimate that the safe speed to pass another car was about 30-35 kms.p.h. So, now we're thinking, do we go to the function or not.? Feels a bit like we're taking our life in our hands going up there. Drivers appear to be overconfident, and they are courting serious injury.
