So sad to be selling my car - have owned and loved it since new, so just one owner.

Fun to drive, cheap to run, and easy to park.

Never caused me any problems, has just a few stone chips as you'd expect of a car this age, but these have been filled by professional car detailer.

Has added extras of tinted windows and (old school) iPod v4 connector in glove box.

Has been cleaned almost every weekend since new, plus service history is with Mexted Motors Tawa.

As mentioned, owned since new - purchased from Eurocar Suzuki Palmerston North in April 2008.

Price: $9,200

Wellington’s trolley buses won’t be around much longer – so take a last ride while you can.

Community Engagement Advisor from Greater Wellington Regional Council

That’s because the first step in dismantling Wellington’s trolley bus wires is set to start next week. A disused section in the city centre will be the first to go, beginning on 10 October.

A disused section in the city centre will be the first to go, beginning on 10 October. Removing the entire 82 kilometres of overhead wires will take 12 months, starting in November. Power to the trolleys will be switched off on 31 October.

Greater Wellington Regional Council says the trolleys have served the city well over the decades, but it’s time to look to new environmentally-friendly technology that can be used throughout the entire city and region. It says that next year the region will get a new fleet of low-emission diesels, as well as 10 electric double-deckers – and in the next few years there’ll also be another 22 electric double-deckers. Eventually the whole fleet will be electric, it says.
