It has a few issues which would can be sorted by someone who has the required skills.
The front bumper has a a few scrapes and needs some new fasteners - upper left hand side currently secured with gaffa-tape and curtain cable-tied. The driver door internal handle is broken, but still works and the driver door window does not open/close. It has a reversing camera, but the connection is not currently working. There are a few cosmetic scratches/dinks on the bodywork that you'd expect of a car this age. Can provide photos of any of these details if you are still interested in the vehicle.
The car is WOF'd to 23/08 and Rego'd to the end of this month.

Relationship Red Flags Workshop
Are you tired of feeling that your relationship isn't fulfilling your needs in a healthy way?
- Do you question boundaries?
- Their actions don't align with their word
- You don't feel safe to share what you feel
- You feel empty around them
- You don't feel they listen to you
- There is never a 'middle ground'
- You more often than not, feel uncomfortable around them
- Your gut instinct tells you to stay alert when certain subjects are touched on
- You apologise even if you have done nothing wrong
- You feel as though you "walk on eggshells" around them.
Narcissistic relationships can be devastating BUT with the right perspective you can 'change' your story and rebuild self-esteem, confidence, and new boundaries.

Hosted by Lizzie Nicholson & Corrie Chambers

Keen to see a fluffy royal albatross live? Head to the Royal Cam - a 24-hour live stream of an albatross nest.
Why the live feed? Well, the royal albatross are slow-breeding birds, and lay only one egg every two years.
Currently the chick in the feed is in its post-guard period, and is left alone. The parents are only returning with food every few days. This little chick will be hitting a milestone really soon - it will finally take their first flight in September! Keep an eye on our little celebrity here.
We hope this link brings a smile!

A scary word that can make people uneasy—and for good reason. According to The Post, more than a third of New Zealand’s public services have recently faced it.
But why is restructuring the go-to strategy for driving change?
In The Post’s article 'Reaching for change: Is our public service obsessed with restructuring?', doctoral candidate Annika Naschitzki from Victoria University is trying to understand repetitive restructuring.
New Zealand’s public service is often seen as risk-averse, slow-moving, and stuck. But interviewed staff indicate that they want change, that change is needed ... just not through restructuring.
Naschitzki doesn’t mince words: “We always have the same issues, but we keep trying to fix the same problem with the same hammer we've been using for decades.”
Are we leaning too heavily on structural change when real transformation might lie elsewhere? Perhaps through training, resourcing, tools, and practice, as Naschitzki suggests.
What do you think?
Is restructuring the right tool for meaningful change, or just a habit we can’t seem to break?
If you are wary of restructuring, how can we do better?

Butter, power bills, and those sneaky surcharges on your card ... it feels like everything’s creeping up in price lately. We’ve seen the headlines, but we want to hear it from you.

Overall, Most Kiwis say they’re ‘not prospering’. But, according to Retirement Commission data, some members of our community (women, Māori, and Pacific people) are experiencing worsening financial positions at elevated rates.
Stats NZ tells us that food prices have jumped 4.6% since this time last year, with meat and dairy doing most of the damage. This jump is hitting us all, but groceries are just one part of the picture.
When basic costs keep climbing, the old cost-saving tricks — like bulk-buying or stockpiling on sale — don’t always work. Who can afford to spend more upfront when every dollar already has a job?
We want to know: What costs have caught you off guard the most? What are the expenses that feel impossible to juggle right now?
