Toyota Starlet 1997 Glanza S
Fantastic little car for sale, cheap to run (7L/100km), sport model of the ever reliable Toyota Starlet. It’s nippy, handles well and has been serviced regularly.
There’s plenty of life left in this car, with major components that wear, already replaced:
-Full engine renewal at 240,000kms; with cambelt, water pump, and radiator also replaced
-Full set of new mid-range tyres with <7,000kms of wear
-Wheel bearings replaced at 270,000kms
Motor fluids have been renewed & changed regularly and minor consumables replaced (cv joints, brake pads etc.). Wheel alignment done today.
It has done 283,000kms, has a WOF till 14 March 2020, Registration till 11 June 2020
Cosmetically, it’s in an average condition, I’m happy to describe it honestly (also see photos). A low speed roundabout crash years ago, led to the front left panel and suspension being replaced, no structural damage. The passenger side lock has been patched over, after a loser burglary attempt. Like other cars of this age, the clear coat is fading on the roof/bonnet, there are plenty of guides online to fix this (never bothered me). The corners have a few scratches, interior in good condition.
Other features: Airbags, A/C, rear seat folds down fully, good speakers, automatic transmission
This is a fantastic low cost fun car, don’t believe me, see the reviews. Only selling due to our family outgrowing it, sad to see it go. www.productreview.com.au...
$1,250 firm, it’s priced fairly. Please private message me for a viewing/test drive.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
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?
-
36.4% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.6% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
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.
Some Choice News!
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!
