2007 Volkswagen Passat Variant3.2V64m
A nice VW Passat Wagon Variant3.2V64m
I'm not sure what is "standard" in this model, but it comes with some nice features such as:
Heated leather seats
Electric seats/mirrors/windows
Bluetooth/CD player
Good speaker system
Magnetic phone mount
Window shade screens
Lighted visor mirrors
Immobiliser
Full spare
Recently had a ton of work done on this, including:
New timing chain, chain sensor
CV Boots
Oil change
The interior and exterior is reasonably tidy for it's age, but does have some small nocks and scratches commensurate with it's age.
The biggest flaw in this car is the patch of delaminated paint on the hood, and a crack in one of the speaker covers. The "Adaptive Front Lighting System" says it's failing, but a few mechanics have looked at it and don't see anything wrong with it, so it's probably a sensor or computer issue. I think that's what the lightbulb warning is as well. There's a small tear in the floor upholstery on the driver's side as well.
Strongly suggest stopping by to have a look before bidding.
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐ป๐จ๐
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?
-
36.3% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
63.7% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
๐ก๏ธ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and youโre unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:โโ
โ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codesโโ
โ Never need to know your full credit card number โ especially the CVC
โ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your deviceโโ
โ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
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, weโre 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 โ and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
