Subaru Legacy with brand new clutch. Valid WOF/REGO

After 3 months of cruising through NZ, it's time to part ways with my trusty car. I took good care of the car and so it did for me. I would take it home if I could, but unfortunately, it doesn't fit in my backpack and the steering wheel is on the wrong side for driving in my country.

The car has:
- Freezing cold AC and a blazing hot heater (they both work great)
- Electric windows
- All-Wheel-Drive (Subaru 4wd) which makes it great for gravel roads and even 90-mile beach!
- A banging good aftermarket Pioneer audio system including Pioneer speakers (aux/cd/radio)
- Proper tires which will last and be safe for at least 15.000km
- Spare wheel (better safe than sorry.. including all the needed tools: jack stand, spanners etc.)
- A full-sized comfy spring mattress (with covers, blankets and pillows)
- Loads of camping gear (winter-ready sleeping bag, portable stove, cutlery, pots/pans, plates etc.)
- (Optional) Cheesy bumper stickers to scare of bogan drivers and Monster Energy stickers to add more HP *or just look cool*)
- WOF/REGO till 1-06-2018, the car is in good shape, new WOF shouldn't be a problem. The car has done 280k km's.

As said, the car has a brand new clutch which was installed by a licensed garage, this cost me $1000+. (pm me for proof, I'll send you the garage bill)

A lot of backpacker-cars don't get any maintenance on or in between their trips, making them less reliable. Being a car-nerd, i didn't want to take a risk, so I took some precautions before I started traveling. I installed:
- New spark plugs
- New oil/air filter and new oil
- New brake pads
- Steering wheel cover (which adds at least 5HP...)
- Comfier and less worn seats (perfect for long drives, see pictures)

Come and take a look in Kaiapoi or Christchurch from April 30th!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
