    Just don't even think of getting 98 in Hawkes Bay. Although a friend of mine is a BP manager and she says they will get soon. Fingers crossed

    What about Gull, their '96' is actually 97.5 and is cheaper.
    Gull station in Napier on the roundabout heading North, INSERT INTO post VALUES ( Taradale Junction ?)
    We ain't had no problems with that, got us through Waikaremoana Road to Rotorua OK.
    Whata neato road, 105 km of serious gravel !!!!:cool1:
    Watch out, I've got a VR4 and a 4G61T and I'm not afraid to use them !
