THE TRAFFIC FOX ROLLING ‘ROUND THE STREETS

HMC Kapiti was without a doubt, one of our biggest supporters in our founding years, letting us drive around, firstly, in a brand new 2023 Suzuki S-Cross in 2022. Then they upgraded us to this incredibly fancy, sleek, zippy, and technologically advanced 2023 Kia Seltos LX+! Driving anywhere in this was a dream - the Kia Seltos has all the modern bells and whistles AND SOME! Make sure you get in touch with their Levin branch today (HMC Levin) for a test drive. We loved the car, we’re sure you will too!

All of the signwriting on both vehicles was generously sponsored by Nathan & Libby Wood at Creative Sign Co in Paraparaumu. Nathan is THE go-to guy for any interior or exterior signage, car wraps, decals, graphics, design, anything promotional! See his website here!

Indeed - all we can say is - WATCH THIS SPACE! 👀
