I bought the car anyway as it seemed what I wanted and was $2,000 cheaper than the higher mileage but same model and year car at the toyota dealer. When I got the car home I looked on youtube how to convert the dashboard display from japanese to English. I said to the wife I don't think this will work, otherwise Turners would have done it on all their imports. Less than one minute later my dashboard was in English! I am amazed Turners does not do it itself and nor did they bother with putting the car clock on the right time. Overall though I was happy with my purchase.
    Not too surprising. You have to consider the possibility of such vehicles catching the eye of Japanese people on holiday in New Zealand. If those tourists like the car they might just buy it from Turners and have it shipped back to Japan!

    What is the link to the youtube video of which you speak BTW?

    Think I would be the only person to welcome him at 2CC.Trouble is buying $2mil of 2cc shares would send their share price to over $2.00.

    You could think about a Ferrari if you wanted one Percy. Guy along the road has one...doesn't drive it much.

    As Percy has previously explained, his problem isn't owning a Ferrari. His problem is looking like a gibbon when he gets out.

    Yes Percy is here in his Ferrari.
    Arrived 15 minutes ago.
    However takes him half an hour to get out of it.
    If he is not out in an hour we better dig him out.
    As SNOOPY rightly pointed out getting into a Ferrari/Porsche is a bit of an issue,but getting out is near impossible..lol

    That was only after a 5 minute test drive.
    The challenge is getting out after a three hour drive.
    After crawling on all fours standing up is near impossible.
    What a great clip..Worth a hundred words.

    Checked GTK for SSH but none so far ...so no insider selling there ( so far ) ...maybe the reason for bigger POP there !!!

    TRA is touted as a strong yield stock at super attractive metrics with future growth in yield and SP ...if thats not enough to stay invested then hardly confidence inspiring ...

    My trading range estimates for next few months $ 4 -$ 4.30 !!!

    Reinforces my view that it will underperform next year !! May look at it again around $ 4 level if possible ...
