MAKE AN OFFER!

NZ NEW VW Passat TDI 2L CR DPF Sedan in very good condition
Fuel: Diesel

.............................
Th­is is one of the greatest, coolest and most comfortable VW I've ever had. My family loves it and it's always been a pleasure to drive it or just be a passenger in it.
The most economical as well: our personal best is 4.9 L / 100km from Auckland to Rotorua - and it's a diesel, with all that torque!

You would pay at least 4 times the price for a new car with this car's features.

Have peace of mind with its five star safety rating.

Extremely comfortable driver's and passengers' seats with plenty of space and highly adjustable. You will also enjoy the dual zone climate control.

Huge boot space and there are even hooks to secure your shopping bags. Lots of storage spaces and compartments in the car, you will be amazed.

Comes with a sturdy umbrella in the driver's door, that's a really cool gadget, always handy and subtly stored.

Stay in control with all these features:
Antilock (ABS) brakes
Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD)
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
Emergency Brake Assist
Traction Control
Trailer Stability Control

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.

🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.

Remember, banks will:​​
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes​​
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device​​
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.

If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
