Yea I learned to drive in dads Holden (A 5.7 :D ) but that was only after I mastered the might of the Vincent Aviation Toyota Camry and then Mitsi L300! Phwoar, just look at that beast! :lol:

This is "our" fun car, when I can get my wife out of it. My proper car is a boring Honda Station-wagon.

Note the Tauranga Tower shot in the rear, to keep it in theme.

Actually this shot was taken while I was out photo'ing a visiting Corsair....!

Love the early 80's Camaro's, sold an 1983 about 3 years back to get a 74 Corvette, then had children, will now lose the vette and look at another mid 80's Z28 as I need a back seat!!

I sold my car today actually, so can recommend Trademe as a good place to sell! Nice Caldina by the way, I'm a fan of them (very similar to my ex Corona)
