    Hi moose, didn’t think you were having a go and it’s a reasonable question and the main reason for my bitch section at Greymouth.

    I specifically ordered, as per their range of vehicles on offer, a 4x4 and if they have offered me ANY 4x4 or AWD, I would have been satisfied, but they were trying to get me to take a lower category vehicle ( at the higher rental ) as a substitute and had they been in the right, I don’t think threatening to involve NZ Consumer Affairs would have had any effect, BUT it did.

    Cheers

    I had the opposite a few years ago for work. We hired 2 station wagons for a driver training course. Due to shortages we got one falcon station wagon and a Mitsubishi challenger. It was fun putting the challenger round the skid pan.

    Was a member of the Canberra Jag Club and we often went out to the Sutton Driver Training complex. The Jag was off the road so took the Disco - was the faster around the track than the 6cylinder jag sedans (the awd did it through the corners).

    On the skid pan the disco was a real handful - plowing straight ahead with plow understeer.

    Was a lot of fun though.
