$500 off for Neighbourly Users + THANKS for the support!

Chris Wastney from Cars That Go

Hi all,

This is just a quick message to say hello and thanks! We've appreciated all the support for our business over the past two years as we've grown from my father's home garage to the present - where we have over 50 cars in stock.

We've been directly importing great quality cars from Japan, servicing them, adding a warranty and then putting them on the lot at a fair & reasonable price.

Japanese cars have great build quality & prices have come way down. With shipping being reasonably cheap we should theoretically see cheaper prices across the board in the used car market.

For some reason, Nelson prices have stayed inflated - which is where we step in! This has to change. Sometimes we are up to $1,500 cheaper than our nearest competitor. Not always - but we do price them down as often as we can!

We know it's not all about price BUT who doesn't want a good quality car AND have some money in their back pocket left over?

To that end, if you see this post as a member of Neighbourly, we are offering $500 off your next car purchase through us. This excludes cars that are already on sale.

A HUGE THANKS to all of you who have already supported us over the past two years. It's been a great ride so far and we are looking forward to helping you solve your transport needs.

Cheers,
Chris Wastney

Labour Party Hypocrisy

Tony from Tahunanui

Well, here we go again. More Labour Party hypocrisy.

Just as Labour MP Rachel Boyack has cried crocodile tears over National not building the promised new Nelson hospital when Labour had promised (showing both how little a Labour promise is worth and the hypocrisy of their tears) to get the hospital started before their term ended we now have Deputy Prime Minister Seymour calling for the Air New Zealand shares owned by the government to be sold.

Now that is to be expected given Seymour’s party policies but what is astounding is Labour’s finance spokesperson Barbara Edmonds comments in response.

She tells us Air New Zealand is critical national infrastructure and the Government should not be selling its shares.

Very good, but wait. Labour has clearly (and conveniently) ‘forgotten’ which party privatised Air New Zealand.

In 1989, the Labour Government sold Air New Zealand into private ownership. The sale transferred the airline from being a fully state owned national carrier to a privately owned company. The sale was part of a broader wave of Labour privatisations, also including:
• Telecom (1990)
• New Zealand Steel (1987)
• PostBank (1988)

Labour may well have built state houses for working people (not just beneficiaries like Ardern’s government) in the 1930’s but what have they done since? Very, very little other than to ride on that one good thing ever since and, as we are seeing again and again approaching this election, spent most of their time practicing their hypocrisy. Remember the Kiwibuild promise?

If you want truth in politics beware Labour.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
