Dave is a semi-retired automotive technician and on top of his love for technology, he spends his spare time building furniture from recycled wood or pallets. Keep reading to find out why Dave loves his Suzuki Swift Hybrid '6ADGET' so much.
I am a semi retired automotive technician of 55 years. I live in Pukekohe. I now work as a maintenance engineer. I fill in my limited me time by building furniture from recycled/pallet wood.
Was looking for a small car, economical to run as well as being able to down size the repayments. It’s a great little car packed with technology. There is plenty of room inside and the boot is bigger than the last Swift. Drives, rides and handles really well.
Being a Hybrid it is in line with the government climate change policy plus cheap for me to run. And the Clean Car rebate was the icing on the cake. Well worth collecting.
For me it was the cost savings, fuel and no repayments to a finance company.
It is a great feeling buying a new car. And then knowing that I own it and not the finance company.
My last cars have all come from Winger Pukekohe. Sarah is the beez kneez. She went out of her way to find a deal for me each time.
I work 2 days a week. Total of 62kms. The rest of the week I use it to run around in when needed, doing the things that need to be done in town. The rest of the time it lives in a garage. Haven’t gotten to putting a blanket over it yet, to keep it tucked up.
Not sure. Will have to wait and see when the spirit moves and where the spirit and mood takes me. Will incorporate a few road trips.
Know what you want out of a car. I did mine based on past cars. The Swift Hybrid does it for me. I think research is the key.
