Huge thanks to 𝐃𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 T Sport - Rally Team ! 🏎️💨

We are absolutely thrilled to share that the 𝐌𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐲 𝐋𝐚𝐝𝐚 has found a new home! After a successful sale, David generously gifted the proceeds, resulting in a phenomenal donation of approximately $𝟔,𝟓𝟎𝟎 𝐭𝐨 Lifeline Aotearoa! 🎉

The 𝐌𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐲 𝐋𝐚𝐝𝐚 is now heading to the Christchurch area, where a couple of keen lads plan to see it back in action—possibly even at the Ruapuna Race Circuit. We wish them all the best!

Every single dollar helps us answer the phone, for anyone needing support. This incredible generosity will help us be there for New Zealanders.

Thank you to all the bidders and to David for turning a passion project into a lifeline for so many.
