THE LYTTELTON Arts<br />
Festival wrapped up on Sunday,<br />
after 10 days jam-packed with<br />
local talent.<br />
you, Lyttelton<br />
More than 2500 people<br />
attended the festival, which was<br />
a great success, organiser Skye<br />
Broberg said.<br />
“It was really wonderful,<br />
overall, with the response we<br />
had,” she said.<br />
The second week featured<br />
acts like Lizzie Tollemache’s<br />
Bedtime Stories for Grown-<br />
Ups, which Broberg said was<br />
magical – and the Lyttelton<br />
Arts Factory may look to host<br />
once a month.<br />
“It was so wonderful,<br />
everyone was just floating out<br />
on a high,” she said.<br />

Squash club,<br />
community<br />
centre<br />
arbitration<br />
date set<br />
• By Heidi Slade<br />
THE MT Pleasant Squash Club<br />
has budgeted $15,000 for legal fees<br />
to try and stop it being taken over<br />
by the Mt Pleasant Community<br />
Centre.<br />
The club is in a legal dispute<br />
with the centre after being issued<br />
a notice to terminate its licence<br />
to occupy the McCormacks <strong>Bay</strong><br />
facility, which it has been in for<br />
more than 40 years.<br />
Tit-for-tat letters between<br />
lawyers acting for the club and the<br />
centre have led to the notice being<br />
put on hold until arbitration is<br />
held between the two.<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News can now<br />
reveal arbitration will take place<br />
in November.<br />
Squash club members were told<br />
at its annual meeting last Tuesday<br />
the $15,000 budget would be taken<br />
from the club’s cash reserves.<br />
Two members raised concerns<br />
using the money would be a<br />
breach of the club’s constitution.<br />
But club president Hamish<br />
Methven said that was incorrect.<br />
“It’s not in the constitution.<br />
We can use club funds for legal<br />
action,” he said.<br />

Quake-damaged lodge restored<br />
THE RESTORATION of a<br />
Lyttelton heritage building is<br />
now complete after more than<br />
five years in the making.<br />
The Kilwinning Masonic<br />
Lodge on Canterbury St was<br />
built in 1881.<br />
It was originally a single-story<br />
structure, named in<br />
honour of what is believed to<br />
be the oldest masonic lodge in<br />
Scotland.<br />
In 2000, well-known Lyttelton<br />
artist Bill Hammond purchased<br />
the building, where he<br />
lived and worked for 10 years.<br />
It was significantly damaged<br />
in the February 22, 2011,<br />
earthquake, and was deemed<br />
uninhabitable.<br />
In 2015, the building was<br />
bought by Kotahi Engineering<br />
Sidewalk and Kohl, excellent value for<br />
this quality.<br />

During the stabilisation<br />
process, the building’s original<br />
brick foundation was carefully<br />
removed and replaced,<br />
revealing the original 1881<br />
foundation stone.<br />
The conservation work<br />
included recreating the<br />
building’s original painted<br />
exterior and colour scheme<br />
to emulate the aesthetics of<br />
traditional Oamaru stone.<br />
Once the final approval<br />

• From page 1<br />
Methven<br />
said the club’s<br />
committee also<br />
got legal advice<br />
on using the<br />
funds.<br />
“Every club<br />
member is<br />
supporting us<br />
to fight for the<br />
club. It’s overwhelming how<br />
much support we’ve got,” he<br />
said.<br />
Community centre acting<br />
president Debbie Wolff did not<br />
respond to <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News’<br />
questions, asking how much the<br />
community centre has allocated<br />
for its legal funds and if the<br />
centre has funds available.<br />
She said she could not respond<br />
to questions due to the upcoming<br />
arbitration.<br />
“We don’t have any further<br />
comments to make on the matter,”<br />
Wolff said.<br />
“There’s not a lot more to say.”<br />
The squash club also passed<br />
several amendments to its<br />
constitution, which was written<br />
in the 1980s, at the annual<br />
meeting.<br />
“We’re trying to do our piece<br />
to make it more modern,” Methven<br />
said.<br />
“We approved our changes at<br />
the AGM. I now have to present<br />
those changes to the community<br />
centre at their next committee<br />
meeting.”<br />
The amendments include<br />
decreasing the number of<br />
committee members the club<br />
has and adjustments to its<br />
timing for its annual general<br />
meeting to coincide with the<br />
modern financial year, Methven<br />
said.<br />
The community centre will<br />
vote on the amendments.<br />

against the changes due to the<br />

The centre will also appoint<br />

Methven believes Paul Monk<br />
is a likely candidate.<br />
Monk is the president of the<br />
Sumner Tennis and Squash Club<br />
and a Squash Canterbury board<br />
member.<br />
“It’s inappropriate. It’s a<br />

Methven said.<br />
Monk would not comment,<br />
saying the only person<br />

What’s our future,<br />
Canterbury?<br />
ENVIRONMENT Canterbury is<br />
responsible for supporting the wellbeing<br />
of our region by delivering<br />
environmental management, public<br />
transport services, and helping build<br />
community resilience.<br />
We want to hear from our<br />
communities about the visions and<br />
outcomes we should work on for our<br />
lived-in and natural environment.<br />
We’re asking for your feedback and<br />
thoughts on:<br />
Air<br />
Clean air is vital for supporting human<br />
health and healthy ecosystems. What<br />
more should we do to keep odour, dust<br />
and pollutants from our air?<br />
Land<br />
Our landscape supports the rural<br />
economy and unique biodiversity, and<br />
has immense historical and cultural<br />
significance. Have we got our priorities<br />
right?<br />
Water<br />
Unhealthy waterways are unacceptable<br />
for our community. How much more<br />
should we do to protect water quality for<br />
future generations?<br />
Coast<br />
Our coastal environment is of special<br />
significance to mana whenua as an<br />
important source of kai moana and<br />
home to a range of taonga species.<br />
Built environment<br />
However we choose to live in the<br />
future, we need infrastructure like<br />
transport, energy and water networks in<br />
the right places.<br />
Climate change<br />
We are already seeing the effects of<br />
climate change on our communities,<br />
businesses and ecosystems. What<br />
more can we do to prepare for future<br />
changes?<br />
Do we have the balance right, are we<br />
doing too much or not enough?<br />

distributed to residents last<br />
week to ask if they wanted<br />
a trap on their property.<br />
The traps will use bait,<br />
such as carrots, apples,<br />
peanut butter and visual<br />
lures, to attract the<br />
possums.<br />
Alex Albright<br />
Albright said staff will<br />
check the traps every<br />
morning for the two-week<br />
period. Any possums<br />
caught will then be disposed<br />
of.<br />
While a considerable<br />
amount of manpower will<br />
be needed to check all the<br />
traps, Albright said<br />
they will be “chucking<br />
everything we<br />
have at it”.<br />
He said the<br />
PFBP plans to<br />
run the trapping<br />
programme annually<br />
over winter,<br />
when the possum’s<br />
food supply is low,<br />
making them more<br />
inclined to take the bait.<br />
“(Possums) do a lot of<br />
damage,” Albright said.<br />
“They go after the<br />
insects, they go after the<br />
foliage, they can eat bird<br />
eggs.<br />
“Ultimately we don’t<br />
want any possums here,”<br />
he said.<br />
Albright estimated there<br />
are more than 100,000 possums<br />
in PFBP’s 23,000ha<br />
operation zone.<br />
After the traps had been<br />
operational for two weeks,<br />
PFBP staff will bring them<br />
in and prepare them for<br />
next year’s trapping programme.<br />
“After the first pulse, I<br />
still imagine there’s going<br />
to be a lot of possums<br />
out there. This is just to<br />
get things rolling and get<br />
things started.”<br />
When asked whether<br />
the traps pose a risk to<br />
pets like domestic cats,<br />
Albright said the trapping<br />
programme is a low-risk<br />
method.<br />
While cats could end up<br />
in the traps, Albright said<br />
they would not be harmed<br />
and team members would<br />
release them very quickly.<br />
“It is harmless and they<br />
will get released.”<br />
He said if a cat walked<br />
into a trap, they would<br />
likely do it at night.<br />
Albright said cat owners<br />
may want to keep their<br />
pets indoors overnight<br />
during the two week<br />
programme.<br />

Longlisted author Emily Perkins<br />
Perkins is an extraordinary writer’ The Sunday Times You know how we say we<br />
devoured a story, and also that we were consumed by it? Eating and being eaten. It<br />
was like that with Claire, for me. From humble beginnings, Therese has let herself<br />
grow used to a life of luxury after marrying into an empire-building family. But<br />
when rumours of corruption gather around her husband’s latest development, the<br />
social opprobrium is shocking, the fallout swift, and Therese begins to look at her<br />
privileged and insular world with new eyes.<br />
In the flat below Therese, something else is brewing. Her neighbour Claire believes<br />
she’s discovered the secret to living with freedom and authenticity, freeing herself<br />
from the mundanity of domesticity. Therese finds herself enchanted by the lure of<br />
the permissive zone Claire creates in her apartment - a place of ecstatic release.<br />
All too quickly, Therese is forced to confront herself and her choices - just how did<br />
she become this person? And what exactly should she do about it?<br />

girls. Twelve random jurors are brought together in a trial to work out what actually<br />
happened. Only they can say whether crimes have been committed and who<br />
should be punished. How does the jury find? Dice is a stunning courtroom drama<br />
told from the perspective of a diverse group of ordinary people - the jury. How will<br />
twelve women and men, aged from eighteen to seventy-two with hugely disparate<br />

outside back Gabe Casey has<br />
been named in Canada’s 32-<br />
man squad to tour Tonga next<br />
month.<br />
The squad for the two-test<br />
series was announced last week.<br />
The uncapped Casey was named<br />
in the team to tour Brazil last<br />
year but did not take the field.<br />
Casey, 23, made his Wave debut<br />
earlier this season. He previously<br />
played for the Toronto Arrows<br />
in North America’s Major<br />
League Rugby competition.<br />
Casey, who hails from Ottawa<br />
and studied at the University of<br />
Victoria in Ontario, started in<br />
all but one of the Wave’s round<br />
robin matches at centre or on<br />
the right wing.<br />
The Wave face Sydenham at<br />
Saint Leonards Square in the<br />
Metro Premier plate semi-final<br />
at 3pm on Saturday. They failed<br />
to make the cup semi-final after<br />
losing to New Brighton 25-21<br />
in the elimination final at the<br />
weekend.<br />
Casey has also been involved<br />
with coaching at St Andrew’s<br />
College this season.<br />

TREASURES FROM THE PAST<br />
The Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> ferry service<br />
THE DIAMOND <strong>Harbour</strong> ferry<br />
wharf at Lyttelton Port, once a<br />
favourite diving platform for<br />
school children, also served local<br />
ferry services for well over a<br />
century, with ferries connecting<br />
a number of jetties around<br />
Whakaraupō Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
– from Te Waipapa Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong>, to Motu-kauati-iti<br />
Corsair <strong>Bay</strong> and Ōtoromiro<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
In 1852, Mark Stoddart<br />
assumed ownership of the<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> land and<br />
identified the necessity of a jetty<br />
to expedite the movement of<br />
goods and produce from his<br />
farm across the short distance<br />
by water to Lyttelton’s port. The<br />
definitive date of Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>’s<br />
jetty construction is not<br />
documented, but evidence from<br />
Stoddart’s journal points to its<br />
existence by at least 1862. There<br />
are indications its creation could<br />
be attributed to a ‘Mr Grubb’,<br />
quite possibly John Grubb, the<br />
respected boat and wharf builder<br />
from Lyttelton.<br />
Stoddart relinquished a significant<br />
portion of his Diamond<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> land to his mortgage<br />
holders in 1871. By 1874, the land<br />
was marked for subdivision,<br />
and Harvey Hawkins, a well<br />
known entrepreneur from Lyttelton,<br />
took possession in 1876.<br />
Hawkins constructed the notable<br />
Godley House on the headland,<br />
which gained popularity – or<br />
some might say notoriety – for<br />
its sociable events, with well-todo<br />
guests from Christchurch<br />
arriving on steam ferries for<br />
weekend pleasantries.<br />
Due to the increased<br />
popularity, a consistent ferry<br />
service was introduced from<br />
Lyttelton to Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
by September 1891. The SS John<br />
Anderson plied a regular ferry<br />
service bringing revellers to<br />
Harvey Hawkins’ Godley House<br />
and its pleasure gardens, with<br />
the Lyttelton Port facilities<br />
being upgraded to support this<br />
increased traffic.<br />
At this time, there was<br />
discussion about charging for<br />
the use of the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
jetty, with complaints that<br />
passengers had been charged a<br />
6 shilling landing fee on Boxing<br />
Day. However, the Lyttelton<br />
<strong>Harbour</strong> Board decided against<br />
such ‘entrepreneurship’, and the<br />
use of the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
jetty was declared free of charge<br />
to the public.<br />
Despite the entry fees to his<br />
increasingly popular social<br />
facilities, Hawkins encountered<br />
financial difficulties in the early<br />
1890s. He attempted to sustain<br />
himself by leasing the property<br />
for use as a hotel, pleasure<br />
gardens and a park, but these<br />

Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum ref 6417.1<br />

efforts were unsuccessful. He<br />
eventually declared bankruptcy<br />
in 1894, and in 1897, the property<br />
reverted back to the Stoddart<br />
family. The impressionist painter<br />
Margaret Stoddart, daughter of<br />
Mark and Anna, lived there until<br />
1913, creating a number of her<br />
most famous works. Meanwhile,<br />
the day trip by steam ferry across<br />
to the Godley House environs<br />
remained popular with weekend<br />
visitors from around the harbour<br />
and beyond.<br />
A significant development occurred<br />
in 1913 when the Lyttelton<br />
Borough Council purchased<br />
140 hectares of land from the<br />
Stoddart Estate, incorporating<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> as a suburb of<br />
Lyttelton. The resulting growth<br />
in water traffic led to the addition<br />
of an ‘L’ shaped extension to<br />
the jetty in 1915, and from this<br />
time on it became known as the<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> Wharf.<br />
By 1926, the growing suburb<br />
of some 38 houses catered to<br />
tourists on the weekends for<br />
picnics, excursions and fishing<br />

parties, while the village’s<br />
professional residents and their<br />
children commuted daily to<br />
work and school via the steam<br />
ferry to Lyttelton port’s railway<br />
station and via locomotive to the<br />
city of Christchurch.<br />
In 1928, in response to ever increasing<br />
water traffic, a prohibition<br />
was placed on private boats<br />
mooring at the wharf, facilitating<br />
easier disembarkation for ferry<br />
passengers. Despite decades-long<br />
difficulties in procuring a<br />
reliable water supply, the village<br />
continued to grow through the<br />
thirties and beyond. It was from<br />
this time the Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
ferries – such as the Owaka,<br />
Moturata, Reo Moana, Manuka,<br />
and the Awhinanui, followed<br />
by Onawe and today’s Black<br />
Diamond – came to symbolise<br />

and love today.<br />

Great turnout for awards evening<br />
THE SOUND of excited chatter<br />
reverberated around the Mt<br />

Friday evening as the recipients<br />
of the Sumner Ferrymead<br />
Foundation scholarships and<br />

a great opportunity to not<br />
only recognise the recipients<br />
achievements, but also to<br />
recognise the sponsors of the<br />
awards programme.<br />
“Without the sponsors,<br />
the scholarships and awards<br />
programme would stretch the<br />
foundation financially, so we<br />
really appreciate their support.”<br />
The recipients had the<br />
opportunity to meet their<br />
sponsors and thank them<br />
personally.<br />
The sponsor of the<br />

What’s On at the Lyttelton Club 328<br />
JUNE at the Lyttelton Club 328 was jam<br />
packed with events peaking with the Club’s<br />
150th Year Celebrations.<br />
“It was an amazing weekend here in<br />
celebration of 150 years of the Lyttelton<br />
Club. 150 years of being a part of this<br />
amazing and progressive community.<br />
The success of this weekend would not<br />
have happened without your support<br />
- our members. Thank you,” said the<br />
management team. “The Lyttelton Club<br />
has seen enormous changes over the<br />
last 150 years, and we are under no<br />
illusion that the years ahead will be<br />
equally challenging. In looking back, it<br />
is impossible not to be impressed by the<br />
level of dedication our Club members<br />
have given to the Lyttelton Club. To have<br />
survived the challenges so far, there has<br />
been strong loyalty amongst our members<br />
and support not only from the Lyttelton<br />
area but Sumner, Heathcote, and beyond.”<br />
<strong>July</strong> is also shaping up to be another<br />
exciting month of events.<br />
“Members asked for more LIVE<br />
screenings of international sporting events<br />
to enjoy in the sports hall. We listened, and<br />
were excited to kick off this request with<br />
the UFC 290 Championship Challenge last<br />
Sunday.”<br />
Queen and BeeGees fans - here’s one for<br />
you. An afternoon of live music on Sunday<br />
23rd <strong>July</strong>, 2pm, presented<br />
by Madsen Promotions.<br />
“We are SUPER<br />
EXCITED and so privileged<br />
to be able to bring this<br />
show to the Lyttelton Club.”<br />
In record sell out<br />
performances up and down<br />
the country, Paul Madsen<br />
and the team will deliver<br />
the silver bullet hits from<br />
these two iconic bands;<br />
Bohemian Rhapsody, Crazy<br />
Little Thing Called Love,<br />
Night Fever, Islands in<br />
the Stream; plus, so much<br />
more.<br />
Paul<br />
Madsen<br />
“This is not an event you’ll want to miss<br />
out on! It is going to be EPIC!”<br />
To be close to the band,<br />
tickets are now available to<br />
access the top bar and lower<br />
lounge areas of the Club during<br />
the performance. Limited<br />
tickets available. Talk to the bar<br />
team; or buy your ticket online<br />
at EventFinda.<br />
Winding up the month on<br />
Saturday 29th <strong>July</strong> sees the<br />
return of the DnD Trio (Gigi,<br />
Jojo & Mark). These guys are<br />
regulars at the Club and pack<br />
the dance floor with their<br />
collection of pop rock covers.<br />
Make a night of it and book in<br />
for dinner.<br />

selection of light meals that includes Chef<br />
Steve’s signature Seafood Chowder, as well<br />
as his iconic Ploughman’s Platters.<br />

Go-anywhere goliath loaded with luxury<br />
IF A NEW Toyota Land Cruiser is<br />
on your wish list but you have a few<br />
extra notes in the bank, the Lexus<br />
LX 500d is the next best option.<br />
It’s a Land Cruiser on steroids in<br />
terms of specification and luxury<br />
and it sits in a part of the market<br />
that has little competition in terms<br />
of prestige and ability than, say,<br />
Range Rover.<br />
What’s more it’s an easy decision<br />
to make if you have decided on<br />
Lexus, there are just two models<br />
– F-Sport and Limited both are<br />
priced at $175,900.<br />
As its nomenclature suggests<br />
the F-Sport has design elements<br />
that are a little on the sporty side<br />
– black mesh grille, unique front<br />
and rear bumpers, while inside<br />
there are aluminium centre console<br />
panels and coloured seat coverings.<br />
The Limited has a chrome slatted<br />
grille, woodgrain shift panel,<br />
wood-rimmed steering wheel and<br />
full black leather.<br />
The only other real difference<br />
lies with the suspension, the<br />
F-Sport gets what Lexus describe<br />
as performance dampers. In effect,<br />
the ride is just marginally firmer,<br />
although I certainly couldn’t detect<br />
much difference between the<br />
standard settings and those fitted to<br />
the F-Sport; I climbed out of it and<br />
stepped straight into the Limited,<br />
there was no immediate feeling of<br />
change.<br />
Of course, if you were to explore<br />
all of the driveline settings and<br />
functions that make the Land<br />
Cruiser/LX 500d so capable, the<br />
chassis and suspension settings<br />
would then come into play.<br />
However, as capable as what it<br />
is off-road, you don’t see too many<br />
Lexus models charging through<br />
the bush or high country tracks, it<br />
is far more of a civilised seven-seat<br />
family wagon that will lend itself to<br />
any challenge, especially in terms<br />
of towing, it is rated with a 3500kg<br />
figure. If towing a horse float or<br />
boat for your recreational pursuits is<br />
what you require, then the Lexus in<br />
this form is the vehicle for you. It is a<br />
true sport utility vehicle with luxury<br />
and quality elements that are true to<br />
the Lexus ethos. For the children in<br />
the second row of seats, each can be<br />
entertained by their own personal<br />
screens that are fixed to the rear of<br />
the front seat head rests.<br />
From a mechanical perspective,<br />
the underpinnings are engineered<br />
for life cross-country and, as I’ve<br />
alluded to, there are many drive<br />
modes that can be dialled in to best<br />
suit the terrain ahead. If you are<br />
heading on a sealed road journey<br />
to, say, Akaroa or Arthur’s Pass<br />
then the suspension and engine<br />
turning parameters can be selected<br />
to optimise engine performance<br />
and/or economy.<br />
Certainly, in terms of that<br />
hill journey the F-Sport model<br />
wouldn’t lean as much through<br />
the bends, but on my evaluation<br />
trip through the Malvern Hills I<br />
can report the Limited model was<br />
equally adept, and certainly there<br />
was never a point where I thought<br />
the handling was less than perfect.<br />
Lexus has indicated that the LX<br />
500d rides on the biggest wheels<br />
LUXURY: The Lexus LX500d is filled with specification.<br />
LEXUS LX500D LIMITED: Huge sport utility vehicle at 5.1m.<br />
it has ever manufactured into a<br />
model. At 22in and measuring 265<br />
x 50 they have a wide footprint<br />
meaning there is a lot of rubber<br />
meeting the surface, which<br />
provides a feeling of stability<br />
and control; steerage is relatively<br />
precise, and even thought the LX<br />
500d weighs in rather tubby at<br />
almost 2700kg it doesn’t feel bulky,<br />
rather it feels somewhat agile given<br />
its size (5.1m).<br />
I also ventured onto a short<br />
former forestry track near Hororata<br />
and can report that even over<br />
undulations the feeling of control<br />
underneath is paramount, the<br />
suspension simply cocoons the<br />
occupants and all occupants are<br />
treated to comfort levels that we<br />
have always been able to relate to<br />
with Lexus.<br />
Under the bonnet sits a new<br />
V6 diesel engine that also comes<br />
courtesy of Toyota’s Land Cruiser.<br />
The best way it can be described is it<br />
is much the same design as the old<br />
V8 that powered previous generation<br />
models, but with two cylinders<br />
fewer. It does get the benefit of a<br />
twin turbocharging system which<br />
provides power outputs greater<br />
than previously, it is rated at 227kW<br />
and a stunning 700Nm. Add in the<br />
coupling to a 10-speed automatic<br />
transmission, the relay of power to<br />
each corner is seamless and constant,<br />
there’s never a point when accelerator<br />
input isn’t met.<br />
It’s a quiet, fuss-free engine that<br />
is amazingly honest, it has a lot<br />
of work to do, constantly pushing<br />
• Price – Lexus LX 500d<br />
Limited, $175,900<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
5100mm; width,<br />
1990mm; height,<br />
1895mm<br />
• Configuration – V6,<br />
four-wheel-drive,<br />
3346cc, 227kW, 700Nm,<br />
10-speed automatic<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 8sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 10.2/100km<br />
nearly 3-tonne is a challenge, but<br />
it is willing and doesn’t work hard,<br />
which has a major bearing on how<br />
much fuel it uses to get about its<br />
business.<br />
I was surprised. I didn’t think<br />
I would come close to Lexus’<br />
10.2-litre per 100km combined<br />
cycle average claim, but when I<br />
took the evaluation car back to the<br />
dealership an 11.8l/100km was<br />
showing on the readout. That along<br />
with 7l/100km instantaneous usage<br />
on a 100km/h highway cruise<br />
(engine speed 1400rpm) means<br />
fuel thrift is impressive.<br />
On the subject of figures, the<br />
LX 500d is also rather swift, it will<br />
power to 100km/h from a standstill<br />
in 8sec and will lunge through a<br />
highway overtake in 5.6sec.<br />
After a fortnight with the two<br />
LX variants I quickly became very<br />
familiar with the concept, that<br />
on top of a drive mid-year in the<br />
Land Cruiser 300 GR. There’s no<br />
question where Toyota and Lexus<br />
pitch these models. Each came with<br />
a towbar, and although I only used<br />
the latter to tow a light trailer and<br />
recycling materials, they have been<br />
designed for a serious role in terms<br />
of transport. Each will go anywhere<br />
and will take that off-road caravan<br />
into some equally gnarly places<br />
that make up New Zealand’s great<br />
outdoors.<br />
However, if you want the Lexus<br />
just to be comfortable with for<br />
everyday transport it’s comforting<br />
to know it, too, will gently ease<br />
you in and out of a tricky situation<br />
with great vision and good<br />
manoeuvrability given its size.<br />
What’s more, it’s easy to drive<br />
and relate to, you don’t need<br />
any special techniques – just an<br />
understanding of its bulk and<br />
complex drive systems should<br />
you find yourself with some loose<br />
surface conditions ahead.<br />
Most of all, though, the LX<br />
500d is chock full of the luxury<br />
ingredients you get with any<br />
model from the Lexus stable,<br />
that’s something the company has<br />
classed as a major manufacturing<br />
ingredient in all of its models. I<br />
was reluctant to take the evaluation<br />
cars back to the dealership, both<br />
variants really grew on me, I simply<br />
enjoyed the driving experience.<br />
Which one would I buy?<br />
The F-Sport, knowing those<br />
performance dampers are sitting<br />
underneath are just one more<br />
reason to feel secure on the road.<br />

HOME SUMNER OFFICE | 2024<br />
Our vision, from the very beginning, is to be the most relatable HOME specialists in our coastal communities. Our<br />
journey began with the little red cottage in the heart of Redcliffs Village and now looking forward to 2024 we are<br />
opening our new offices located in Sumner and Lyttelton. We are looking for likeminded people to join our team<br />
that have the same passion for selling real estate in our coastal communities.<br />
Our core focus is listing and selling HOMES from Waimairi Beach to Southshore, Heathcote Valley to Taylors Mistake<br />
and Lyttelton to Akaroa. We operate with complete transparency, delivering the most honest and straightforward<br />
real estate experience on offer. Ensuring we not only get a premium price for our clients but that they are part of<br />
the entire process is a main objective.<br />
We offer a genuine boutique brand for any individual looking to thrive under the guidance of agents with a<br />
combined 25 years of experience in the industry. Additionally, we have a full support team of powerhouse<br />
administrators, in-house social media and management.<br />
If you are interested in becoming part of the HOME team contact Eddie Spry - 021 156 5884 today for further<br />
information.<br />

DEADLINE: <strong>12</strong>PM, 18 JULY <strong>2023</strong><br />
OFFERS OVER $499,000<br />
(UNLESS SOLD PRIOR)<br />
Here's your chance to own a rarely available, two bedroom<br />
HOME with harbour views in the very heart of Lyttelton!<br />
What a great opportunity to invest or to live and add value<br />
over time.<br />
The classic styling of this charming cottage not only gives<br />
you an instant smile upon first impression, but stepping<br />
inside it offers a spacious kitchen/dining with separate living<br />
room, two heat pumps, a combined tiled bathroom and<br />
laundry. The rear deck offers up stunning harbour views, no<br />
matter what time of day, and steps down into a private<br />
outdoor area make for the perfect entertainment space.<br />
Enjoy all that this port town and the surrounding bays have<br />
to offer, with a leisurely 2min stroll from your front door to<br />
London St where all your favourite cafes, eateries and bars<br />
are located. It's almost too convenient just to cross the road<br />
for a dip in the Norman Kirk Memorial Pool, not to mention<br />
the popular Bridle Path track only 10mins walk away or local<br />
bands down at the Wunderbar most weekends!<br />
This HOME speaks for itself with location, lifestyle and value<br />
all wrapped up in one 208m2 (more or less) easy care section<br />
that will hold the same appeal for decades to come.<br />
This is not an everyday opportunity, so don't hesitate to<br />
contact Khuzwane or Eddie from HOME Christchurch to stake<br />
your claim on this HOME today!<br />
