Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Poll: Have you ever had a dispute over a used car?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A Hamilton woman who spent $11,585 on a car that broke down days after she bought it has won her case in the Motor Vehicle Disputes Tribunal and wants her experience to inspire others to stand up for their rights.

In July, Shynesia Chapman bought a seven-seater Subaru Exiga from MVP Cars 2023 Ltd (MVP) in Hamilton for a total of $11,585, which included a mechanical warranty and insurance, with the funds financed through First Credit Union.
