Presented in 'rough, but reliable' condition, my old workhorse is now surplus to requirement and is looking for a new home.

I bought her to move house and lug renovation materials about the place - that work is now substantially done.

Recently she's been demoted to 'commuter'.

She hates it.

She prefers to work.

I've had her for ten years and the only time she ever let me down was last year when the gearbox went.

When I asked my mechanic if it was worth repairing her, he looked at me as if I was mad and said:

'It's a Hilux - you've only just run it in!'

Hence I had the gearbox reconditioned.

She's one of the last of the New Zealand assembled Hiluxes, so that's a piece of history.

No major rust - just the mandatory surface stuff around scuffs.

Rear passenger side door is in primer - had to replace it for a warrant a couple of years ago. Window seals failed at some point in it's history and that door eventually rotted out at the bottom.

No major dings - just the usual war wounds of a twenty year old ute who has worked for living.

Like I said - rough, but reliable.

She's been in daily use, regularly serviced, is cheap to run and starts first time every time.

You should take a test drive today.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
