Toyota Hilux review New Zealand – Not exactly a Rudimentary (Pre)Runner
Toyota Hilux SR Ute review New Zealand Call me old-fashioned, but a lot of the time, alright most of the time, when I’m asked which model of vehicle I wish to review, I opt for the top of the line version. You see, just as the brands like to show off their fully-loaded edition, I […]
Luxurious Affinity
Infiniti Auckland’s Showroom Grand Opening – New Zealand Vehicle showrooms should be stunning.

Detroit evolution – Ford Mustang Review
2108 Ford Mustang GT review New Zealand I’ve never actually been to Detroit (one day maybe), but up until recently, all the images I’ve seen of the place have portrayed the Motor City to be just that, an industrial, concrete jungle whose sole purpose was to provide cars to the rest of the nation – […]
