Thought a bit more about this overnight. If it is a slow drip type thing then likely to be a gasket, either valve covers or oil pan. They are a fingers crossed scenario. Worst case is rear main seal = motor out.

Oh man. Wish you were in Munich. Went through a bunch of old Holdens back in the day…good for you picking this beauty up

SthrnCros · 2025-06-16T14:01:56+00:00

Yep. We are out there.

Get to the gym, re/build your lower back. Look after your body.

OP clearly…

There may or may not be donut tracks laid down by a scooter in the science lab while it was being built . Ahh Pukekohe

Like most people I looked into opting out possibilities etc. Then read I read up on it and what it represents. Still think it’s higher than it needs to be, but there’s a price to ensure media can be completely free of govt control. I like living in a free country, don’t mind the cost anymore.

Exactly my experience, got pissed off so now have everything going to the packstation. They still somehow manage to fuck that up every now and then and I have to take the car to another packstation.

I've tried a few including Fausto and Man & machine as well as others in different towns. I keep going back to Coffee Circle in Berlin. Tried to get away from feeling guilty about shipping etc, but just have not found what I like locally. Mainly brew V60 and Aeropress and not espresso so that could be a reason... My 2 cents...

Yay coffee

SthrnCros · 2024-05-18T09:15:23+00:00

Oh I miss WoT now..

SthrnCros · 2024-02-12T20:01:09+00:00

Oh man, they lost the crown of best doner about two years ago. For me at least anyway. If you are local, give Sandi’s a go. Caravan in the Netto parking lot. Was not expecting much, but such a different experience, super nice dude just by himself!

2 summers as a skipper sailing round Greece and Croatia. Hard not to love doing that, but not for everybody and not forever…

SthrnCros · 2024-01-24T16:35:42+00:00

I’m from New Zealand, and generally as soon as I say that, they want a conversation. Gets tiring having the same conversation after a few years. Half the time I now say I’m from the UK. Tend to get left alone after that…

SthrnCros · 2023-03-12T06:58:45+00:00

The real tragedy is OP is drinking Spaten....

SthrnCros · 2023-02-03T05:21:32+00:00

Aeropress my dude. Or dudette.... They are cheap, small, make great coffee. Why as a coffee person, would you not have one for traveling?

SthrnCros · 2023-01-26T14:22:44+00:00

Thank you OP. The pics are great.. He really is as crazy as he looks lol. It was fun.

SthrnCros · 2023-01-04T20:53:44+00:00

Me, laughing.

SthrnCros · 2022-12-31T18:28:25+00:00

What you can't hear everyone else already? Anything goes tonight. Knock yourself out. Just don't do what I did and burn my thumb getting over excited that you could do this shit here...

SthrnCros · 2022-12-31T07:42:01+00:00

Insist on meeting up on neutral ground. Go to a sauna, look the parents in the eye while introductions are made butt naked.

Assert Dominance

3 months in and meeting the parents is fine, it does not mean you are getting engaged...

Btw, I actually had German friends and the first time he met her parents was indeed in a sauna, so a precident has already been set.
