Tagged a very nice SW in the Albany mall's car park a few days ago... Clearly someone's pride and joy. 8)

Saw a nice black SW20 pulled over on the side of the road just south of the roundabout near old north road near Kumeu today. Looked like it had a club sticker on it, but was too focused on the road to get a good look. Looking good anyway!

That might have been me, actually!
I was playing with my Power FC if it was. Good bit of road.

Nice. If I was in the MR2, I would have pulled over and said hi, haha. Yea, it was a black SW with black rims if I remember correctly. It's an amazing road. I live in Helensville and work out west, so I get to drive it every single day. Makes for a fun morning commute!

I didn't get a good look as I was focusing on the traffic ahead and it was overcast, but I just so happen to also be red/green colour blind haha.

That was not directed at you David. It is a very dark green so in low light can be easily mistaken for black but the import inspector creating the documents should get it right.
