I moved down to Central Otago (Cromwell) in early Feb following an opportunity with the company I’d been working for in Christchurch. The first port of call was to find a few spots to go looking for...

The ZD30 has a few other issues too, like fuel pumps being a $5k+ engine-out job to replace or recondition (and commonly wearing out around 160-180k). A mate who is a very good mechanic said from...

If its a 3.1 (4JG2) then its quite a sturdy old diesel. If its a 3.0 (4JX1)... run! A very bad diesel that can give endless probs. That's the trademe dollar auction model. Bighorn and Wizard...

I've been riding Makara peak for 10 years. I've only ever ridden a $700 hard tail and it's served me well. Good for uphill, poor to average for downhill.

If you have an Evo cycles near by see if they can get you a Silverback Spectre Sport. Around the 800 mark but a lot of bike for the money. But yes, brand isn’t too important, look at specs. Lots to...
