North Island: Waihi to Whangamata always gets me grinning. So does Whitianga to Coromandel via Kuaotunu.

Just make sure you haven't got your face anywhere near the drainage points when you unclog them. Unless you enjoy dirt freckles that is. BTDT :oops:

Mounties! Where do you take your MX5 for servicing?

Can anybody recommend a reliable Mount garage that's MX5 friendly? Das StripeMonster is in need of a service, and my wallet doesn't really want me to go to the Mazda place :lol:
