A lovely family road trip in one of our latest vehicles!

Papakura Toyota

Over the holidays our very own Alan Cao, took our newly landed bZ4X for a nice family trip to test its limits and make sure he was ready for any questions our customers would have. 😎

Alan says the bZ4X handled a drive (with charge to spare) from Auckland to Hamilton to visit extended family ... even with the music and aircon blasting! 🔥🎉 He made special mention of the smoothness of steering, suspension and the amount of torque. He says everything was so smooth even Sara, who doesn't usually want to drive, wanted a turn.

He goes on to say that there was plenty of space for his kids and all their stuff in the back even with both front seats back as far as they would go. Very family friendly.

And finally, Alan says when pulling into the driveway in Hamilton, there was much talk amongst family members about just how good the bZ4X looked next to their Prados, RAV4s and Yaris GXs.

All in all, a great weekend for Alan and the bZ4X🔥and cheers for this lovely family pic (Taken before you set off) 😁

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Auckland has a thriving cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures across the country, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫
