That is exacting right.

 

To rare over here for the parts or rebirthing market and sticks out too much for joyriders or for criminal activity (imagine it being use for a ram raid think the windows of the shop will come off better)  . More like to steal a car that blends in or to order for parts. I even park it around town with no top on, windows down and unlocked. Watch people stopping and looking (taking photos etc) while I go to cafe. No one even touches it or even gets to close too it.

 

Have had a person loitering around in the dark near it one night after work (Chef so finnish late). He turned out to be from England out here with the Bentley Club doing a tour with their Bentley's. Must have cost a lot to bring their cars over here although also had the McLean owners club out here for a tour and one guy wrote his off (planted his foot from a stand still at a T intersection straight off the road into a ditch). He said he own one once and they where getting to be a rarer sight on the road in the UK.

 

Been a couple of VX220 facebook members say that they have been/are in New Zealand on holiday and should have brought their cars out as they loved our roads.

 

Now there's an idea. I am willing to be the tour guide.
