Reply to the Baillie Family comment regarding the 2001 Emission Rule.

Thank you Baillie Family for posting your comments, they are much appreciated.
Short answer;
There is no time to petition Emission Testing at WoF, the Emission Rule comes into effect on December 31st this year and after that, 85% of the vehicles that have come into NZ this year can’t enter.

That 85% are cleaner, safer, lower km cars than most of what’s already on our roads. 
(see below for more)




My argument is if we stop such a huge amount of the supply like the Government wants to, then the lower and middle income earners will not be able to afford to upgrade to something in a later year with lower km’s because there will be a lack of supply and what’s already here will become more expensive.

From next year the 15% of cars that can come into the country are going to be priced from $16,000 ~ $25,000,
In Japan if there is a source of much higher km cars that are cheaper, then NZ will try and buy them,
But if the engines have traveled much further it stands to reason, they will be a more polluting car than something which has only traveled say 50,000 Km

There are a few other problems, if there are any higher Km cars available, they will not be so cheap.
There are many other Countries out there also buying from Japan, they are younger markets and have no hesitation in winding back speedos to get a premium sale price, there’s also the issue of supply, Japan has been going through a massive recession and the after math of 2 large natural disasters, supply has been restricted already.

In regards to you comment about introducing a regular emission test at WoF.

I think regular “emission” not performance, testing at time of WOF is a good idea, I’m guessing you didn’t watch Gerald Sharrock’s Interview where he suggests an emissions test once every 2 years?
Anyway the problem is the cost apparently,….but if there were a few designated testing sites throughout the country, then once every 2 years is achievable.

All I’m saying is the policy Labour left us with hasn’t worked so far, in fact it’s had the opposite affect, and if the next phase is implemented, then it will have disastrous effect and actually make the Air Quality in N.Z. worse.

I am all for cleaning up the Air Quality in NZ, so let’s come up with something that works not just willy nilly introduce legislation to gain votes when it not only doesn’t work, but makes things much worse.

We can do better than this, we’re Kiwi’s! With the best “number 8 wire” mentality in the World, surely we can come up with something that will actually work?

Although, all this may be pointless if our fuel quality is substandard and the main cause of poor Air Quality.

The quality of fuel in NZ carries a high concentration of Sulphur and Polly Aromatic Hydro Carbons (not sure of spelling here) which is the biggest pollution issue.
Even new cars with the latest technology will not pass a Euro Standard 4 emissions test using 91 grade fuel.
Recently an entire fleet of  brand new cars were recalled to Japan because they could not meet the emission standards while running on NZ fuel, others experienced major mechanical failure which was attributed to the fuel.

If we want to really do something about this, then let’s start at the cause, not try and score points for votes by introducing bad policy’s.

Please sign the petition, it makes sense.

Petition The NZ Emissions Rule December 2011

The Emission Rule:

Please ckick this link or scroll to the bottom to sign the petition.

Read on to learn more. Comments welcome!







On the 31st of December 2011 the next phase of the emission rule will be implemented by the NZ Government.

The affects will be widespread, and felt for many years. If not stopped, it will increase the cost of living by an average of $4,000 for every person who drives a car or is going to drive a car in New Zealand.

Yes, we will be saying “Goodbye” to cheap, low priced, quality cars in NZ.

The cost of living in NZ is already expensive, and now the stage is set for it to get a lot worse, and for no good reason, because the legislation introduced by the Labour Government doesn’t work!

Make no mistake, “This is the first “un-natural national disaster” to befall NZ following the Christchurch earthquake”.

Due to the Earthquake and Tsunami in Japan, the halt of new vehicle productions and the struggling Japanese economy there is now a global shortage of quality second hand vehicles available out of Japan, and as a result, the prices of second hand cars in Japan has greatly increased.

Back in 2007 the Labour Government came up with what they thought were some good ideas to reduce air pollution.
Some of them “were” good ideas, like reducing the level of sulphur in our fuel from over 80 particles down to 8.
But unfortunately this was not realistic. After upgrading the Marsden Point Oil Refinery it was learned the technology being used there had been upgraded as much as it could, and to reduce the levels of sulphur any further to that below 50 particles, (which it had been reduced to) would require the plant to be completely scrapped and rebuilt using the latest technologies.

The NZ Government is a large shareholder in the Marsden Plant, and now they had placed themselves in a position that could potentially be very embarrassing.

The facts on sulphur content in NZ fuels have now been archived on the Government’s web site. Nobody refers to it, so effectively it has been brushed under the carpet, and remains a goal they could not achieve.

And in fact a whole fleet of brand new diesel vehicles could not comply with current emission standards, (because of the low quality diesel fuel they were being tested with in NZ) and were returned to Japan! A whole fleet of brand new cars!!!
And as I understand it the other manufacturers are also having trouble complying!!

Labour targeted many areas in its “Clean Green” campaign, it was a vicious campaign designed to gain green votes with little in the way of proper research being done.

Example:
Remember the “Fart Tax” for livestock?
Farmers (and the public) did their nut over that one, and finally the Labour Government backed down.

Another target was “CARS”!
There are really only 3 car categories in NZ:
• Cars sold new in NZ
• Cars Imported into NZ
• Cars already here.
At the time and from Labour’s stand point, Car manufactures are too important so they can’t rock that boat.
Many cars already here are old and being driven by Labour constituents, they just couldn’t be seen making things harder for “them”.

So that left the import market, “Holy cow!!! The biggest polluters of them all!!!”

The import market is vital to the supply of quality vehicles in New Zealand, and it’s vital to continue this supply so we can remove older polluting and unsafe cars from our roads.
Through trial and era, stringent restrictions have been set in place to protect the consumer and ensure only the very best vehicles make it onto the NZ roads.

And now 85% of that market is about to be removed!.…. 85%!

And this is the reason why.

Air Quality.

That’s it, the quality of air in NZ.

The Labour Government wrapped it up and passed it through as legislation designed to protect the NZ public from harmful emissions produced from nasty vehicles, so they raised the standards of vehicles being imported. Unfortunately, they are about to raise it too high which will place the vehicles meeting the new rules in the $16,000 ~ $25,000 price bracket.

The majority of import car buyers are in the lower to middle income bracket. There is no way they can afford something that is about to double in price!

They will be forced to keep their old cars on the roads, and fix them when they break, supply will dwindle and car prices will become a lot more expensive.

The first phase of the Emission Rule was actually a good idea, it meant NZ could not import vehicles made prior to 1998. The second phase was not so good, we could not import anything prior to a 2000 for petrol vehicles, which was ok, but for diesel vehicles, the rule was much harder and NZ could not import most diesel vehicles manufactured prior to 2004 and in some cases 2005 and 6.

There is now a lack of supply of low km, good quality diesel vehicles and the ones that are here, are more expensive than ever before! Check it out.

The Labour Government wanted to get older cars off our roads, but what it’s done so far is keep the older diesels “ON” our roads. There is nothing to replace them with, and as they become older, not only do they start to produce more emissions but they also became more expensive.

And now the stage is set for the same thing to happen on a much larger scale involving every single car in NZ.

The 31st December 2011 Emission Rule is going to CUT supply by 85% and will not only drive up the prices of old vehicles, but it will also allow the manufactures to raise the price of new cars.

And with prices jumping sky high across the board, the quality of cars on our roads will decrease; they will become even more polluting and in some cases will be “unsafe” as they would have been repaired by unqualified people working as cheaply as they can.

How many people need to die before the consequences of this rule are acknowledged, or will they even be reported?
Will fatal accidents in unsafe cars be reported as just another car “accident” ending in a fatality? or will they report that the victim was actually driving an old vehicle that may have been unsafe prior to the crash?
My guess is that would require an investigation, which would need money and chances are it was a lower income earner in the accident if it was an old car, so we will never know!

National has the power to overturn this legislation and save our cars, our wallets and make our roads safer.

There are better ways to reduce our carbon footprint that actually work!

Like retro fitting fuel lines so they run over the top of an engine head on a diesel engine pre-heating the diesel to 56 Degrees Celsius (diesels optimum and cleanest burning combustion temperature.) similar to that of a common rail diesel engine, currently being sold in new diesel vehicles.

There are components that can be retro fitted to exhausts to reduce emissions.
The Japanese Government required all busses and trucks’ wanting to drive in inner cities to have this fitted, failure to do so, and they would be breaking the Law.

If it worked for Japan, why can’t it work for us?

If the NZ Government was really concerned about the quality of air the average NZ citizen was breathing, they would make it mandatory to have all busses and trucks fit their exhausts so the tail pipe was above the roof line!
How many of us have been stuck in traffic breathing in the fumes of the bus in front? Or suddenly get a blast of fumes through an open window from a passing truck as it changes gear?

I think that would quickly improve the quality of air the average NZ person is inhaling, but it may upset the new vehicle manufactures as it would be an additional cost and disruption to the manufacturing process.

But when you think about it all manufactures should build buses and trucks in this manner, it just makes so much sense! Take a look at the United States of America, they do it!

Or, why not make it mandatory to actually test the emissions of cars already on our roads?

A suggestion has been put forward to do an exhaust emission test of all vehicles on our roads once every 2 years at designated locations. If they fail the emissions test they will require some servicing and perhaps maintenance work and if they fail 3 times they are “Flagged” and taken off the road until they comply.

Now on the face of it, this seems like a good idea, but there is a real major flaw, and it’s the Petrol we use.

Even brand new cars will not pass a Euro Standard 4 emission tests using 91 grade unleaded fuel, the car needs to be fuelled and run on 98 octane petrol in order to pass in most cases.

The biggest thing the Government could do to fix the quality of our air, is fix the quality of our fuel.

But this will cost the Government a lot of money, actually it will cost “US” money and our Government can’t afford it especially now they’re rebuilding Christchurch!

Yet there are still more ways.…. So why aren’t we investigating them?

It seems utter lunacy to be living in a Country renowned for producing some of the World’s most remarkable minds, brimming with Kiwi “number 8 wire” mentality and “can do anything” attitude, and not be able to come up with a better emissions rule than this?

It is the result of a Government creating an ineffective plan in order to gain public support over a very real environment issue, to better suit their own wants.

It is not legislation designed to improve anything for us, it is legislation designed to boost the ego of overpaid bureaucrats so they can keep their high paying jobs, (after all, they are not the ones driving cars priced under $10,000.)

We absolutely must stop this next phase of the Emission Rule and come up with a plan that actually works!

Damn it! We’re Kiwi’s, that’s what we do best, we come up with things nobody else has thought of and show the World how to do it.

The National Government has said it will not do anything to change the rule, it is an election year and this rule was introduced by Labour and only really affects their constituents.

In other words, National will not gain anything by overturning the rule except to help Labour voters (who aren’t going to vote National anyway).

They will only do something if it benefits them. How stupid, they are there to do what we want them to do, to do what is right, to research and come up with the right answers to issues that affect our lives, and implement them……not introduce ineffective policies that make our lives worse (and more expensive) especially when they don’t work.

Help me put pressure on the Government to change this Law.

Please sign the petition and don’t forget to “like” our video.

Thank you for your support,


Chris Jellie.

This affects: Toyota, Nissan, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Daihatsu, Suzuki, VW, Mercedes, BMW, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Isuzu, Mazda, Volvo as well as any other car entering NZ from overseas and models already here.

2001 Toyota Altezza AS200 2L Travelled 97,000 Km For Sale At Peter Day Motors

http://peter-day.blogspot.com/

http://globalonlinecars.blogspot.com/

Stock # 2970

This 2001 Toyota Altezza AS 200 has a 6 cylinder 2 litre DOHC engine which delivers 160 BHP (Brake Horse Power) assisted by the 4 speed automatic transmission giving a fuel consumption rate of 11.6 Km per 1 litre of gas. All of this is fed by the 60 liter fuel tank. This model has a turning circle of 5.1 meters.

A very popular and sort after sedan in NZ and around the world. With its sporty looks, stylish interior and trade mark Japanese handling it's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.

The Toyota Altezza is the Japanese variant of the European Lexus IS200. It has been available in Japan since 1998, at which time it received many accolades and won Japan's coveted Car of the Year award with its VVTi engines and Beams Tuning. In Japan, the car is produced in two forms, the Inline-6 DOHC 24v VVT AS200, and the more powerful RS200 - with an Inline-4 DOHC 16v VVTi engine

The AS200 more closely resembles the UK variant of the car - with its 6 cylinder engine and 160 bhp (with 4 speed auto box). A cheaper alternative to its 4 cylinder brother, it nonetheless offers an inexpensive way into owning a Toyota Badged Lexus.

"Impressive though the Lexus IS200 is, it is overshadowed by the japanese market Altezza" - Car Import Guide Feb/Mar 2001. The RS200 gives out an explosion of power, almost comparable to the Honda VTEC, feeling and souding like a race car as the variable valve gear starts. The interior is refined and sophisticated, with good looking dials, though the majority of Japanese market Altezzas are Z-Edition without the leather seats. The Toyota Altezza is very enjoyable to drive - particularly in 6 Speed RS200 form, with a race-feel engine and great build quality. If you are looking for an automatic, the Japanese version has the 5 Speed F1-Style gearshift which is also great fun to drive. The Altezza can be spotted by the 'A' badge on its front grille.

The mileage of this vehicle is AA certified and guaranteed.

There's no diesel option for Stream, but the smooth 2.0i VTEC petrol unit pushes out 154 bhp, accelerates from 0-100 KMP/H in 10 seconds, and manages a creditable 33mpg, (for those still stuck in the old counting system). Like many Honda units, it thrives on revs and can be driven enthusiastically. Ride and handling will please the driver, too, with fairly firm suspension and little body roll. Dashboard and driving position are both excellent. The cabin is roomy for five plus luggage, although with seven adults aboard it's a bit of a squeeze and load space is reduced severely. Reliability seems above-average and used vehicle values are holding up well.

The mileage of this vehicle is AA certified and guaranteed.

2002 Ford Escape 3L 4WD Travelled 108,000 Km For Sale At Peter Day Motors.

http://peter-day.blogspot.com/

http://globalonlinecars.blogspot.com/

Stock # 2984

This 2002 Ford Escape is powered by a 3L litre 4WD DOHC engine which gives 203 BHP (Brake Horse Power) assisted by the 4 speed automatic transmission she will give a fuel consumption rate of 8 Km per 1 litre of gas. All of this is fed by the 61 liter fuel tank. This model has a turning circle of 5.6 meters.

A very popular SUV in NZ, with its stylish looks, it's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.
Since its introduction, the Ford Escape has been selling well in NZ and now has a good foothold in the small SUV market. Considering how many other vehicles are available in this segment (many of them well established before the Escape's debut), this may come as a bit of a surprise. But Ford has a keen knack for designing SUVs that appeal to a wide range of buyers.
With the Escape, Ford successfully combined the styling and four-wheel-drive capability of a traditional SUV with the size, practicality and driving characteristics of a midsize car. For the urban dweller in need of something comfortable, versatile, fun to drive and capable of doing some light off-roading or towing, it fits the bill perfectly. Of course, the Escape's low price certainly boosted its appeal as well.
The Ford Escape is a compact four-door SUV. Due to its light-duty four-wheel-drive system, fully independent suspension and unibody construction, it's more suited for on-road driving than off-roading. Its underlying structure was developed with input from Mazda, whose Tribute is very similar to the Escape.

Considering how many of these Escapes were sold, shoppers should have peace of mind they are buying a popular motoring vehicle. Although first-year Escapes were tarnished by numerous recall notices. Though resolved at this point, going with a 2002 or newer model might be a good idea. Potential buyers of this first generation of Escape should note that its interior materials were of poor quality, with cheap, hard plastics everywhere.

This vehicle is Generation 2.

The mileage is AA certified and guaranteed.

2003 Mitsubishi Grandis 2.4L Auto Travelled 59,000 Km For Sale At Peter Day Motors

http://peter-day.blogspot.com/

http://globalonlinecars.blogspot.com/

Stock # 2978

This 2003 Mitsubishi Grandis has the 2.4L SOHC engine which produces 165 BHP (Brake Horse Power) assisted by the 4 speed automatic transmission giving a fuel consumption rate of 11.4 Km per 1 litre of gas. All of this is fed by the 65 liter fuel tank. This model has a turning circle of 5.5 meters.

A very popular People Mover in NZ, with its sporty looks, stylish interior and trade mark Japanese handling it's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.

The Mitsubishi Grandis is a seven seat MPV that replaced the Mitsubishi Chariot. The Grandis is a large five door wagon and compares with a Mazda MPV.
Mitsubishi has a long record of producing people carriers, starting way back in 1984 with the original Space Wagon. That, like all the following incarnations and this new Grandis, offered seven seats in a vehicle little bigger than a traditional estate car. So, another run-of-the-mill MPV then? Well, not really, for the Grandis follows the Space Wagon trend of being that bit lower than the competition, which means access is a little easier and the driving environment is a little more car-like than most. Not that there's much risk of mistaking it for a regular MPV. The Judge Dredd styling is an acquired taste, but there is no denying that it brings a fresh look to a very conservative market segment.

The mileage on this vehicle has been AA certified and guaranteed.

The SUV phenomenon started many years ago in New Zealand with intoxicating images of peaceful places far away from the hustle and bustle of city life and has since become a tidal wave that has flooded our everyday lives.
The weekend getaways to the beach or bush have given way to the trek of a lifetime for those of us willing to explore and many of us have taken to the open road in huge numbers, but the SUV has also set down roots in our towns as more and more families turn to it for day-to-day family transport due to its ease of handling, high riding safe feel and large boot space.
SUVs, or Sports Utility Vehicles, like the Nissan X-Trail have become the enduring phenomenon of modern day motoring and there's no sign they're going to lose favour with car buyers any time soon and should retain a good resale value.
The mileage of this vehicle is AA certified and guaranteed.

2005 Subaru Outback 2.5L travelled 127,000 Km For Sale At Peter Day Motors

http://peter-day.blogspot.com/

http://globalonlinecars.blogspot.com/

Stock # 2946

This 2005 Subaru Outback has a 2.5 litre SOHC engine which gives 165 BHP (Brake Horse Power) assisted by the 4 speed automatic transmission which is full time 4WD giving a fuel consumption rate of 13 Km per 1 litre of gas. All of this is fed by the 64 liter fuel tank. This model has a turning circle of 5.4 meters.

A very popular wagon in NZ, with its sporty looks, stylish interior and trade mark Subaru handling it's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.

In the mid-1990s, New Zealand's desire for SUVs was growing at a rapid pace. To the bright sparks at Subaru, it was a no brainer. It became obvious that consumers liked the elevated seating and macho styling of these vehicles, but had little use for their bouncy rides and poor fuel economy. The Subaru's solution? The Outback, the "world's first sport-utility wagon," and the beginning of an Icon.

The Subaru Outback provided many popular SUVs traits without the associated drawbacks. Subaru based it on its midsize Legacy platform but made sure the vehicle came standard with all-wheel drive, a raised suspension for better ground clearance, and special interior and exterior styling details.

For power, 2.5i trim levels had a 2.5-liter horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine that made 165 hp. The other models were upgraded to a 2.5-liter turbocharged engine with around 243 hp. The 3.0 models came with a 3.0-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder (H6) good for 245 hp. All-wheel drive, as always, was standard across the board.

The mileage on this car is AA certified and guaranteed!

2001 Honda Accord 1.8L VTE, travelled 100,000 Km For Sale At Peter Day Motors.

http://peter-day.blogspot.com/

http://globalonlinecars.blogspot.com/

Stock # 2994

This 2001 Honda Accord has a 1.8L VTE DOHC engine which gives 140 BHP (Brake Horse Power) assisted by the 4 speed automatic transmission giving a fuel consumption rate of 15.6 Km per 1 litre of gas. All of this is fed by the 60 liter fuel tank. This model has a turning circle of 5.4 meters.

A very popular car in NZ, with a reputation for reliability and trade mark Japanese handling. It's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.

Few vehicles over the past three decades have garnered as much respect in New Zealand as the Honda Accord. It hasn't achieved this by being sporty, glamorous or sexy. Instead, it has, for every year, offered what most Kiwi's want out of their daily transportation. Take an Accord for a test-drive, and you'll find it comfortable, roomy, intelligently engineered and easy to drive. Research it, and you'll find it backed by a solid reputation for reliability, a strong resale value and an emphasis on safety.

This is the sixth-generation Honda Accord. It is very popular in the used car market. Sold from 1998-2002, this model came in coupe or sedan body styles and had either four-cylinder or V6 power. In a nine-car comparison test conducted by Edmunds.com editors, this car finished in 2nd place. They noted the car was not exactly entertaining to drive but was very user-friendly and competent in all areas. Buyers should feel relatively free to look at models throughout this generation as Honda didn't make any drastic changes, although, cars built after 2000 have expanded safety features.

The mileage is AA certified and guaranteed.

A very popular wagon in NZ, with its sporty looks, stylish interior and trade mark Japanese handling it's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.
The Subaru Forester debuted in the late 1990s as an option for consumers interested in the emerging segment of compact SUVs.

2003 Mazda Axela 5 door hatchback 2L travelled 102,400 Km For Sale At Peter Day Motors.

http://peter-day.blogspot.com/

http://globalonlinecars.blogspot.com/

Stock # 2960

This little 2003 Mazda Axela 5 door hatchback has a 2 litre DOHC engine which gives 150 BHP (Brake Horse Power) which is assisted by the 4 speed automatic transmission giving a fuel consumption rate of 13.8 Km per 1 litre of gas. All of this is fed by the 55 liter fuel tank. This model has a turning circle of 5.2 meters.

A very popular wagon in NZ, with its sporty looks, stylish interior and trade mark Japanese handling it's no wonder these vehicles are so popular on our country roads and liked by all.
The Mazda Axela, or Mazda3 as it is known in New Zealand is Mazda's idea of a hatchback and is similar to a BMW 3 series compact looking more like a shorter shooting brake more than the conventional sporty hatchback that we're used to, this helps with interior space as well as ensures the cars roofline doesn't make it impossible for taller than average passengers to sit in the rear comfortably. The sedan shares the family look of its older brother the Mazda 6, with a similar horizontal bar wedge grille on the front.
Both body variants look like they have the same front bumper design with a wide air dam flanked by fog lamps, yet in reality, both cars share no body panels! The sedan has its grille integrated with the front bumper, while most of the hatchbacks grille is part of the bonnet. Both the Mazda3 hatchback and sedan have a very planted to the ground looks to them, sitting low to the ground, with minimal wheel arch gaps enhancing the effect. Even more so with the Mazda 3 hatchback, it has a slight wide-body look to it thanks to the design of its shoulder line, making the car look wider despite being no wider than the sedan in reality. Both cars have a sexy rear end with a rear bumper sporting a diffuser-like design. Tail lamps of both cars share a similar nice clear lens crystal design. The sedan has a small tastefully done boot lid spoiler while the hatch has a rooftop spoiler.
The mileage is AA certified and guaranteed.
