I'll park it on my drive. When you bring your family to NZ for a holiday you can tour the South Island in it.

Sound like a deal?

Are you sure its not Marmite? Since the Christchurch earthquakes Kiwis have been dropping like flies due to their refusal to eat the Australian equivalent. My Kiwi inlaws are looking all pale. No one can afford the real stuff. http://www.trademe.co.nz/home-living/fo ... 883555.htm

Have you ever seen an Austin 1800 van? There was one built recently based on an Australian 1800 pick-up. It gives some idea of what could have been. Its on ebay at the moment, the price is gradually coming down.
