NZTA is unaware of specific concerns relating to other individual vehicles however, due to the concerning admissions around Peninsula Motor’s inspection practices and there is a strong possibility that some vehicles may have been incorrectly passed. For this reason, they strongly encourage people who have a current Warrant of Fitness issued from Peninsula Motors to get their vehicle rechecked.
The NZ Transport Agency will contact around 1170 affected vehicle owners individually as soon as possible to advise them on recheck options. Vouchers will be provided and will be valid for six months from the date of issue. More information here.

Our littlest people need your help. Poverty doesn’t start at 5, but until now there’s been no nationwide programme to help preschoolers who are hungry and cold.
KidsCan is changing that. They’re delivering raincoats, shoes and five fresh meals a week to 25 early childhood centres. Attendance is up, and the children are happier and more settled.
"Everyone has the same meal so children don't feel like they have less," Manaia View Kindergarten teacher Kathy Belz says. "It's upholding everyone's mana.”
40 more centres are waiting for help. KidsCan, Stuff and Neighbourly have partnered up to raise enough money to support 1000 more children - and we need 400 more generous Kiwis to hold little hands. To support a child, sign up at KidsCan.org.nz

The Madison Park Homes show home at 126 Colonial Drive, Millwater stands out from the crowd with its innovative new design, mono pitch styling and contrasting claddings of natural timber and stone.
The home is a showcase of the quality build principles Madison Park is becoming known for. Everywhere you look there are quality fixtures and fittings chosen from carefully selected suppliers. The home gives you a tremendous sense of space and lightness due to the clever use of large windows, high ceilings and oversize doors.
Come and visit. We hope our new show home will inspire visitors as they develop ideas, plans and specification for their own new home”. And until the end of April, every visitor goes into the draw to win an iPhone.
We love giving advice and guidance. Come and see us at our new show home. Open 12 - 4 pm, Tuesday - Sunday.
