    P4 will be headed for New Zealand in the next hour (once I get James' addy). Got it all boxed back up and ready to go. I'll try and post up the pics I got over the weekend.

    Just checking in... I still haven't pulled the pics off my camera, but P4 is on the way to New Zealand. However, the box does not contain a post card from here - as there were none to be had at any of the half-dozen places I stopped to look. Post office said P4 should be in New Zealand by the 27th - though I'd hope sooner for $23.

    James - I tucked a little something in the box for you too - figured why not, since I'm sending a package anyway...

    Wow, thanks Roy!!! I like surprises!! :D $23 :( Must be fairly large?? I will buy you a beer or 3 :)

    I have a Club gathering on the 7th of December and would like to take P4 along as there will be some good photo opportunities, so long as me holding it from the ~27th till about the 8-9th is OK with everyone here?

    The box isn't too big, or heavy, but it always seems to cost about twice what I think it's going to when I ship stuff down to you... I'm cool with the delay, quite frankly, I think two weeks to have the car is more reasonable than one anyway... Though it's not really my decision to make...

    P4 has arrived down under! It has now officially travelled more than I have! Thanks for the extra bit Roy, I have been looking for one of those since I first saw a photo of them. Very much appreciated.
    The post cards are great, I will organise one from Hamilton, New Zealand. The drawing is cool also.
    P4 has a busy new few weeks lined up, Friday should be something special.

    Some quick shots from tonight.....

    Great shots, and even better looking Spider!
    I will figure out what the total distance traveled so far is later today.

    Thanks Dale, P4 is currently relaxing in the centre console of my 355. :)

    Thanks Clint!! :D

    I was hoping to get some shots of P4 with my 1:18 P4 that I am attempting to restore, might have to be some progress shots....

    Be great to see P4 with your impressive collection Michael.

    If I had seen the pictures of the wooden form I definitely would have inquired! Very cool shots! Is that that McEnzo in that one pic?

    On Sunday the New Zealand Ferrari owners club had it's Christmas fun run and lunch, it was a fantastic day by all accounts and P4 was along for the ride in my 355. If you would like to see more of the run and the 40+ Ferrari's we were joined by please search "Kiwi spotters" in the Aussie section, the are many photo's there of the run.

    Here are the shots I got with P4 :)
