TNZ warehouse tour - date confirmed!

Postby Dell'Orto » Wed Jan 24, 2007 11:15 pm

I've been asked by an employee at Toyota NZ if we would like to have a guided tour of the newly expanded warehouse.
It now covers a fairly impressive 33,000 square metres 8O and obviously houses the majority of Toyota parts in NZ.
Date has been confirmed as Tuesday 13th of February, at 5:30pm. Limited to 19 people.
If you want to come along, PM PRYMAL and hopefully you'll be able to tag along

Sure, whatever you can successfully get out the door without being caught :lol: I'm sure though we could arrange some kind of discounty kind of thing if people wanted to take stuff home with them.

Or the super-hyper-mega-ultra stash of TRD bits lying around :twisted:

Yeah at this stage I think its likely to be after hours on a weekday.
