kiwi808 Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 Plenty of wanker beers in the fridge mate. And plenty of room at our house if you want to stay a night or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azzurro Posted September 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 we will be driving the van down, possibly doing a north island victory tour and then a south island welcome home tour depending on how the timing works between packing up here and house finding down there. But definitely keen on a garage fridge/wanker beer/cup of tea tour of the South Island if we have the time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzurro Posted October 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 Ha. Fresh pic post* WoF at the Repco round the corner from my mechanic. Was absolutely pishing down, dudes in his ute sharning and reminiscing, and talking up the facebook, while im smiling and nodding in the rain, tapping the starter trying to get the fan belt to a spot where i could see the numbers to get a slightly shorter one. His FIAT twin camtip of the day - get a loose block and put a tight head on it. Also, do a skid Rokay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yoeddynz Posted October 18, 2019 Report Share Posted October 18, 2019 That last photo - both cars at sunset looking out to sea. Wow. Really nice. Cool pic. Do pop in on way down. There's an empty cabin here. Have a break and enjoy a kit kat. We are only probably 25min diversion from the west bank road heading south from motueka which is a sweet road to travel south on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove on 850 Sport once and even with my not over large feet it was tight down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoeddynz Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 although to be fair to fiat there is a slight size difference between a tractor and a teeny tiny car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azzurro Posted September 6 Author Report Share Posted September 6 Just happened to come across this just before too: https://petrolicious.com/articles/this-1973-fiat-238-officially-served-belgiums-biggest-ferrari-dealer I warn you that it includes shocking statements like Normally, an old Fiat panel van wouldn’t brighten the eyes of a supercar enthusiast. Oh, sure, they may be quirky and cute, but they’re not exactly an appealing addition to most collections 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
