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: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
