The car is in good condition and since I owned it (from Jan 2017) I have done the following to it:
- replaced spark plugs with spark leads
- coolant and thermostat replaced mid 2017
- 16 inch rims installed (in place of factory 15 inch, exact same design, came of R129 SL roadster)
- new KYB shocks (stock spec'd) installed front and back in Aug 2018. What a difference it made to handling!
- new battery fitted (some time in 2019)
- installed new Pioneer mechless head unit with USB input and Bluetooth for handsfree calling, along with steering wheel remote. Original Technics head unit is still available if you are interested in original look
- factory optioned door subwoofer speakers retrofitted and powered by Pioneer amp to bring the sound up to scratch
- "OEM fit" Monacor CRB-120PP (coaxial) speakers installed in the front. Listening to a music is now a pleasure :)
- new tyres fitted to front in Aug 2018, done just 10k, so still almost new.
- new tyres to be fitted back once I receive them (delayed due to you-know-why)
- towbar installed in 2019, no heavy towing done, just a few trips to greenwaste tip with a trailer

- rear axle oil has been replaced around 2018

For a 30Kg Mortar bag - add approx 500gms of Oxide.
For a 30Kg plaster/render bag of Cemix Cemplaster mix 300gms of Oxide.
As a general rule - coloured oxide is added at a ratio of 1% - 4% by weight of cement in the mix.

Do you enjoy managing money? Would you like to join a friendly & positive group of locals who manage the Te Horo Hall to ensure it's available to the community. The Hall committee needs a new treasurer as our current treasurer is stepping down after many years.
The Hall is regularly hired out for celebrations (weddings, birthdays etc), a monthly market, exercise classes & sporting activities, funerals, social and fundraising events. It is also set up to become a Civil Defence community hub to support the community in an emergency.
The committee manages the hall maintenance and improvements, event bookings, health and safety, cleaning, Council requirements, and the CD hub if needed - and also hosts monthly drinks (everyone welcome) plus some social or fundraising events.
The Treasurer’s role includes:
• receiving and banking all payments made to the committee
• paying accounts and expenses
• keeping an accurate record of the transactions and accounts
• providing a financial update to monthly committee meetings
• preparing annual financial accounts for the AGM
• arranging an annual audit of the finances
• managing term deposit investments.
If you're interested or would like more information, please message us or phone our current treasurer, Katherine on 0276712166
We’d love to hear from you, and/or see you at the AGM at the hall on 22 June 7.30pm.

Brian Perry Civil were then engaged as the lead contractor to undertake the enabling works and to manage the other contractors working on site.
A long list of options was quickly whittled down to a shortlist of two options for relining the existing pipes.
From the shortlist SaniTube, from German Company, Amex Sanivar, was selected because it offered the best value for money, could be installed quickly and highly experienced New Zealand agent and installer Hadlee and Brunton was able to undertake the work.
Despite the additional challenge of the global pandemic both pipes were successfully relined by the end of May 2020, thanks to the multi-disciplinary team brought together to deliver this innovative repair.
