    C&C in Auckland

    Attended the monthly Cars and coffee and breakfast in Auckland attended mostly by air cooled cars with a smattering of water pumpers. A very welcoming bunch and I am very great full for your hospitality.
    Thanks a bunch!

    Sure did. Gary is the guy behind the get together and is a great host. We drove across town in his 72 911S.

    We just returned from a month in NZ, including much racing. Never have I encountered such a rabidly enthusiastic car culture. They seem to lean towards mid-60s American muscle. Name: Spritz Levels.jpg Views: 136 Size: 102.1 KB

    My goodness! That looks like fun! New Zealand has a wonderful car culture and I was fortunate enough to witness their air cooled Porsche passion first hand. What a great bunch of guys and gals.

    The NZ lads are very accommodating - Glyn T looked after my wife and I very well - with a tour. We arrived Auckland 4.30AM from Houston on the day of C&C so we enjoyed the pastries and coffee....
