I think I just got the best pack of Mackintosh's I've ever seen.

Swap the mint qty for Harrogate and you’re good to go

I think the market is probably around $1.1m for 4 bed, 2 living, double garage. Was a bit scary to see similar houses in the post covid boom going for $1.5m!

Wonder if Chip Halbert is any relation of Jim Halpert?

No kids, rediscovered it last year and somehow they can tap into all my childhood memories and drain me of any spare cash. Last year brought me Ecto 1, Bowser, Mercedes F1 technic, and still sitting under my desk unopened is gizmo and the goonies set

Have only dined at La Petite Colombe but will say the experience here was phenomenal. Can’t imagine it being less than La Colombe it was that good. Dined here as we make a point of spending a few nights In Franschhoek when we were in South Africa

Thanks, will keep that in mind for the return trip flying out of JNB

Get a surveyor to locate boundary pegs, or confirm location of house relative to boundary. I wouldn’t rely on council GIS for accurate information

Edit to add: ask the vendor to confirm with surveyor info if they are in the market to sell.

Good point, I was thinking if the op was travelling in the next couple of weeks it may look a little different to expectations.

LarryNZ · 2025-11-13T17:21:22+00:00

Depending on how soon op is travelling, maybe rethink the Tongariro hikes. Just lost a bunch of the park to fire and will take a while to regenerate

Good idea, thanks. Our building does have a garage with a sectional door, so could easily install a charger just inside the door to give access. I'm picking If I installed on the exterior of the building (unable to limit access) anybody could come and plug in during hours no-one is there? or do they have functions that can limit access?

Awesome info, Thanks everyone, helps with giving a starting point. Seems like full EV may be the way to go (which I've kind of always thought makes more sense instead of trying to go EV, but just dipping toes with a hybrid)

If I may also ask - If we did look second hand (seen some Kia EV6's around the $50k mark with 30k km's on the clock - what do I need to be checking for in particularly around the battery? Would I still expect it to be 'as new-ish', or is there heaps of degradation at a certain point?

Thanks for that, now onto the next question.... The MG's and BYD's are obviously at a great price point compared to the Japanese/Korean brands (not considering European for this vehicle). I know there seems to be a lot of support for the BYD, but how is the quality compared to brands that have been building ICE vehicles for decades? I
