2000 Ford Festiva for sale
Sorry all - car has now been sold.
Ford Festiva 1.3 automatic in Red
136,000 Kms on Odometer
No WoF, (expired Jan 15th 2020) and Rego on hold - Car has done less than 300 Kms since last WoF as we started to sell it just prior to covid-19 hit - so the car is just sitting in the driveway, (battery dead so have replaced it with another battery).
Small grazes on bumpers as this was the car my daughter learned to drive with and eventually get her full license.
Seats are in great condition, (no tears etc).
Pro's - very easy to drive, fantastic turning circle and great gas economy. I have quite a lot of service history of the vehicle and the last WoF had wheel bearings replaced etc.
Con's - The fuel gauge is slightly faulty, i.e. the needle drops to "empty" just below 3/4's - even though you have 3/4's of a tank of fuel, (what my daughter did was fill the car up and reset the odometer - when she approached 200Kms - she'd refill the tank, which typically didn't cost much). You may need to check the windscreen squirter - When I replaced the dead battery, I checked the car, everything was good except the squirter.
A really neat first car - for learning to drive.
💨 Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?
It’s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! 🌧️ We’ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.
In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!
The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! ☀️
Any local hidden spots or activities you’d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! 👇
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?
-
38.1% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
61.9% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
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!
