143,644km. Time to refill, it has been a while, and the car has done very few km's over the last 18months. Tyre pressues reset to 200 all round. Were down to 160 to 180. Steering felt heavy with 160 at front. Passed its WoF with no issues, got a new licence, and took it for a nice sunday morning drive .

141,921km. Fuel up after ROCC trip, a long and slow trip back from Cromwell - Travelling back on Easter Monday, bad idea. Long tailbacks through Lindis pass, along SH8 to Tekapo, and Fairlie, and Geraldine, then a really slow piece through Tinwald and Ashburton. 10:30 am to 6pm for a 350(ish) km trip. Meh! Car ran perfectly, smooth and comfortable, solid water temperature, and oil pressure. Roof off all the way home. Fantastic

Fill up in Oamaru, after lovely drive up from Mosgil, lunch at scotts and wander around the Victorian precinct of Oamaru. Then dropping into Midway motel to say we weren't going to stay and would head for home. Home by 6:30 pm, take away curry from Corriander's - sooper. Roads very quiet, so an easy trip - stopped in Ashvegas BP for a cup of tea and break. Having a break was such a good idea.

136, 944km. Taken a while to get through this tank. A few fun blats around, out to Ruapuna for the Skope classic, a few Port Hill fangs, and a few sunny day drives with Laura, who has driven it a few times now and is getting more confident. And while Andy Casson, on his and Derryn's visit to NZ in February. He enjoyed it, but I think he likes his Boxster more.
