Volkswagens Downunder (book)

Cordwainer from Melville

Volkswagens Downunder
by Steve Reid

2018. Laminated hard cover, large landscape format, colour illustrated, 216 pages.

Tiny sticker residue mark on cover, otherwise excellent condition.

For many decades Volkswagens have been loved and admired by car enthusiasts from all over the world, and Australia and New Zealand are no exception.

Whether it be about the Beetle or the Kombi, there are millions of stories out there waiting to be shared. Summer fun just wouldn't seem the same without these two great motoring icons.

At the beach, on a road trip or cruising around town, they always seem to bring a smile to everyone everywhere, and with that distinctive sound you'll always know when one is close at hand. But there's more to Volkswagen than just the Beetle and the Kombi, as these Downunder enthusiasts will be quick to tell you.

Price: $12

The butcher with a taste for adventure

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Jonathan and Sarah Walker are a couple with a give-it-a-go attitude to life, whether it’s travelling the world in a Land Rover or starting a butchery business with no experience.

Nestled below Hakarimata Scenic Reserve just outside of Ngāruawāhia is Soggy Bottom Holding, the local butcher you’ll recognise from frosty mornings at the farmer’s markets.
