    A delta is a pretty good car, too bad it's not a Integrale.....

    My Mother drives a BMW 328I, grey sedan with rear spoiler, aplty named because it ruins the lines of an otherwise immaculate E36.
    My father drives a 1994 Jeep Cherokee sport. Grey again. so basic it's not funny.
    My Aunt and Uncle drive a 1995 White Ford Telstar Ghia, otherwise known as a badge engineered Mazda 626 from the same era. You may have spotted it about Spastik as they live in Fielding, NZ. Near Palmerston North.
    My Grandmother Used to drive a Holden Barina (Opel/Vauxhall Corsa) Until she passed away, my mother sold the car so that my sister and myself could use the money to buy cars for ourselves when the time arose.

    that's all my family, unfortunately most of them are dead, which doesn't set a good precendent for myself, especially my Grandfather, he died at 35, and not from an accident!

    I know, almost as much of a hole as Masterton.......

    still, it's a sedan, with a rear spoiler and alloys.

    Challenger was just yanking your chain, i think he was just kidding, he seems alright usually.

    Its a great place, its got a good racing track...

    Actually it is a shithole.... the only things that perk it up are Manfield and Mini Putt, and the fact that a slightly more interesting city is 20 minutes away...

    Wellington? HA! Wellington is one big accident zone waiting to happen, i should know, i lived there. The Hospital is built next to a FREAKING faultline! and of course state Highway 1 Runs right down the centre of the Faultline. Add the Psychotic pedestrians, scary, scary busdrivers and lousy, windy weather, it's almost enough to make you stay home.

    Plus: shops all within walking distance of each other
    Minus: there built on old shoreline, in an Earthquake (Which is due) most of Wellingtons going underwater.......
    Plus: good public transport routes, a bus every 2 minutes, as they put it
    Minus; The bus drivers scare the Bejesus out of me, DON'T LOOK THEM IN THE EYE!!!!!!!!

    the prado should be a good car though, not as hardcore as the 75 or 100 series but for some occasional offroading and caravan towing it should be more than enough. that and the Pajero are considered the best in their class so its a good buy on your parents behalf
