> One fifth (20%) were fine walking 10-15 mins (or longer!)
> Another fifth (18%) were happy with a walk up to 10 mins.
> Nearly half (45%) indicated they’d be ok walking 2-5 mins.
> Just 15% preferred a short walk of up to 2 mins.
> Only 2% wanted a park right outside their store.

Our masterplan caters for everyone. Take a look at it here

Brought from Toyota Papakura in 2018.
Full service history with Toyota since new.

Latest service and WOF was Friday 3rd June 2022 - only comment was that the rear tyres are at 3mm.
Front tyres are 12 months old.
Battery was replaced in 2020.

It has after market 35% tinted windows and we got a reverse camera installed by Toyota.
Bluetooth stereo & full electrics.

It will be sad to see this car go, however it is no longer required as we have a new SUV company car through work.

Car is located in Conifer Grove, Takanini, Auckland.

*Need this gone. All reasonable/serious offers welcome*
