I saw a white Imiev with blue EV stickers in Christchurch, NZ today. Cool as, .!. I wound down the Prius C S Tech Window and gave a grin and a Thumb Up and the driver drove past smiling..

Thanks, everyone, for the cool replies. I have found three here on trademe.co.nz, search for i-miev and you will find three currently on there. Best price is $ 20, 000 NZ. I wonder if I should follow you and import one instead.?. Ideally I am looking for five cars, so the cost per each is...

Hi WyVern, Thank you for your reply also. I looked at the pricing on the link you mentioned and after factoring in shipping and exchange rate, the pricing is about the same as in NZ. So I think buying here is going to be best. Hoping to push for buying the before winter here...

Cool photo, merry Christmas and God Bless. Have a safe and happy holiday, and at your range be more than hoped for and you emissions only pleasant singing... Michael.

Hi, and thank you Malm for the link, it was really good and I spent some time there looking. There are some non listed iMiEVs available I think directly from Mitsubishi in NZ, but only 1 that I have seen listed on a dealer site and one private one on a www.trademe.co.nz site. I aim to approach...

Hi, I would like to start a thread for the NZ and Aussie owners. There haven't been a lot of i-MiEV's sold here in NZ, and there are now none on the sales yards that I know of. I understand it may also be similar in Aussie. It would be cool to have a thread where we can talk about the things...

http://www.smove.sg/ a car and bike rental firm in Singapore. I have written to them and they were really helpful. Was thinking of doing the same thing here in NZ.

I wouldn't worry too much about the people who drive silly, and too close, they generally take off past me if I pull over. But the size of the car you are in and how it is percieved sure does change some of the other drivers attitudes. My work has an Adventra V8 which is very similar to the V6...

Hi, Here in New Zealand, we have RUC or Road User Tax, and this is applied to nearly all vehicles that use the road, and do not use already taxed fuel. Petrol here is about the only taxed at pump, fuel with Diesel being popular for many cars as it is not taxed at the pump, but instead a per Km...

Hi Carnut, Yep the cars could come over here ok, problem is warranty, most of the ones in NZ and online in Aus are 2011 ones so no warranty left as such on the car itself, the one we were going to buy was finishing in July 2014. The battery warranty still applies though and I...

We test drove and went to order a 2011 imiev that had been sitting on the yard for a long time, the car was great and we wanted to buy it but not until we were sure of charging infrastructure was available. Mitsubishi NZ were not interested in putting in any fast chargers anywhere as sales...

feet warmers, grin with wireless controls, so ideal to be able to easily turn off at work. http://www.gizmag.com/thermacell-heated-insoles-review/29943/ note that it appears they are not super hot, only to normal room temp feeling.

Thanks guys, good advice. I haven't had any problems with the headrests but they do seem too far forward. I might see if the Holden Adventra ones fit when we get the iMiEV. Patiently waiting for the dealer to fax our paperwork.... Had a crash by being hit once from behind, in a line of cars...

Hi Joe, Thank you for the link, it was good reading and a bit scarey re the rental customers returning the car on a week hire after 1 or two days !. We have found a minor problem with the warranty offered on the car. In initial discussions about a year ago, rental usage was fine and...

GOOD NEWS !, After hearing the car was already sold from dealer back to MMNZ, I prayed about it and then went asking MMNZ about where it went to. The car only has 2, 000 Kms on it and we put about 700 km of those on it during our testing. MMNZ have replied back to me...

Sigh, finally got the boss to agree to buy the car, and got the dealer to offer a great price, $ 135 NZ per week for 5 years. No Deposit. There was one hitch and that was as a test car, he had to get Mitsubishi NZ approval first to sell the test car. Just got an e-mail this morning...

Grin, cool work from these guys, think Singapore ?, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRbzTfzzPhM Mike.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TP_joLqUtxw only subtitle commentry, but not bad. Amazing range due to lower speeds. on open roads here in NZ, we need to be at about 100 Km / Hr or will be tooted at !.

This car Might !!!!!, On our NZ TV ONE NEWS. Cool parking, and they are getting 100 Km per hour, but need to use better batteries to get as good as the iMiEV range though. From the look of the batteries shown, they look like standard Hilux size batteries. Love the parking and ability to U...
