    Frenchies mistaking 'Interislanders' for Fighting Rainbows?

    Now the replacement one is having troubles. Not up to bomb status yet but this seems to be beyond bad luck XD

    Maybe they just have some really crap mechanics/engineers?

    Not just shipping companies. NZ Government is getting the Tokelau ferry built in Bangladesh (well know for their ship breaking industry)
    it's not a bad thing till you throw a KLR into the mix.
    those cheap ass bitches can do anything with ductape.

    ...at the opening of the new 'straddle carrier' arena at Lyttlton, way back when it was ''container' time the dignataries and management were all seated for the big display, the brand spanking new straddle lifter came out, did a pirouette and one of it's wheels fell off...made in India...dampening moment...the management bluffed their way through, as always...
