Upper Hutt Community Patrol - Safer Plates Event
Do you want anti-theft screws on your Vehicles number plates?
Upper Hutt Community Patrol and Wellington District Police will be installing tamper-resistant 'Safer Plates' screws on Friday 8th April from 10:45am till 2pm @ Countdown Queen Street, Upper Hutt
Over the past few months, a number of plates have been stolen throughout the Hutt Valley, and this number is on the increase. Stolen plates are being used to switch plates to facilitate crime such as petrol drive offs.
To curb the increase in number plate theft, Community Patrols of New Zealand - CPNZ have produced special screws which require a special driver to remove, these are used to replace the existing standard screws; this lessens the chances of the plates being stolen.
A small donation of $5 is appreciated which will go to running the Upper Hutt Community Patrol Vehicle.
Marketplace Has Its Deplorables
Have had a fair share of trouble selling items through Marketplace in recent months.
Have had the scammers, and "buyers" who have change their minds on going through with the purchase after all arrangements made, but not advising of such.
But just yesterday a guy took out the award for the best try.
Got a 2008 Forester SUV for sale at just over $9000.
This would be purchaser wanted to pay me weekly for the vehicle.
Yeah, right.
If the vehicle was for under $3000 there might be an element of sensibility. I suppose when one is short of cash aiming high provides some kind of relief mechanism.
The Subaru Forester with a low mileage of 148000km, a tow bar, many features and in good to great condition all round is still available.
