I was out and about today and saw 4 other SVXs on the road!

-"Ulrich" in the Domain.
-A Pearlie in Mt.Wellington.
-A black over silver in Remuera, driven by an older woman.
-A black on black in Ellerslie.

Is this a NZ record?

I parked besides 3 others at "Speakers Corner" in Browns Bay last year, but did not have a camera (boy it's moments like these that I will treasure in my mind for a long time.

I last saw "ulrich" about 10 years ago - it was on a hoist at North Shore Giltrap - getting the 4WS module replaced.

At least you know it went to a good home.

Aparantly the reason it ended up on the same yard is the guy who originally bought it traded it for something else on another yard and the sales manager from Cathedral saw it, remembered it and knew it was a good 'un so they bought it back, as a sort of "crowd puller" I guess (little did they know that the crowd was SubbieatNZ

).

BTW you really see the colour mis-match between the guard and bonnet in that pic.

i wonder if that was the case?
just coz at the same time they had an silver svx that was on the yard. real nice too... an while later it sold.
but after about an year it ended up back at the same yard.
