Hi,we are coming over to New Zealand next February(2013) and i was wondering if anybody could recommend any good museums/shows,starting in the north island( mid feb) and them moving to the south were our friends live(Dunedin),Any idea`s would be greatly recieved as i will be limited to how many i can go to(as both my wife and her friend arenot really into it),but would be ok for me and her hubby to wander of occassionally.They live there so would need to give them some notice as they are planning the trips etc. Thanks in advance Simon:-)

Hi deos anybody know what happened to the East Anglia(east england) tank museum as they were relocating a couple of years ago but cannot find out if they have reopened yet and if so where.I had a play on the internet and found pictures of there old site abandoned,but nothing upto date we are visiting that area next week so was hoping to pop along and have a look. Thanks simon:-(

They meet at Sywell in the Avaitor pub/hotel on the aerodrome site,it starts at 20:00 the first Thursday of the month,it would be nice to have more motorcycle fans there,if your free come along we are a friendly lot,My bikes are a bit younger than yours but i like all ages. Simon

I normally go onto the Vintage power wagons web site and see what other dodge wc have the same part and then if they match order that from a uk supplier,it worked fine with the two diff seals i needed as a lot of the axle/diff parts are the same.

Thanks for the info,our friends live in Dunedin we came over a couple of years ago and had a tour round and did lots of the touristy things.Managed to get to one car show and a Truimph motorbike weekend.I did meet a nice couple from New Zealand at last years War and Peace show who were over here buying military vehicles etc, they said there was a lot of owners/collectors over there,but due to the strength of your currency it was cheaper to buy in the USA and UK and ship home. Simon

Hi,welcome to the forum which part of Hobbit land are you from(i presume the south island as that was were it was filmed).We are planning to come over next february/march to see some friends is there any military based museums/ collections or events that you could recommend.We will be mainly in the south but might have time to go to the north island.Is there a New Zealand MVT. Simon:)
