NZ built. And one of the good things about that was that the mandatory local content included beautiful wool carpets. Even in the spare wheel well.

Very nice and comfortable cars back then. There is still one in my neighbourhood being used as a daily driver in very good but used condition and in its original paint!! No rust.

A 16 year old was on board today in the C-V8. First time she'd ever seen window crank handles in a car. She thought that was the coolest thing ever :D
