Any idea of what a taxi to the central city (well, "The Wood") costs roughly from the airport? Flying up tomorrow for a night, trying to work out whether to book a shuttle.. cheers.

Probably $30 if there isn't any Airport fee.

Yeah, you're both right. The taxi driver quoted $28, the shuttle was $21. Nelson is mint.. can definitely see the attraction in living there, would consider it if I could get a job there!

Well, they advertise jobs in my line of work occasionally, however I'd be taking a substantial pay cut. One day maybe!

It isn't even fast for how much fuel it uses. Will be for sale shortly. Cross that one off my car bucket list.
