What is actually bogan about Belconnen Mall again? If it’s <20% of clientele then it isn't the building's problem

Is it true the 2008 refurbishment of the Belconnen Mall was mainly for the purpose of reinforcing the floor due to the increasing floor loads being experienced in the pedestrian areas?

Ask someone who has been in Canberra before 2008

Would have liked to hae had a shot at the 100,000 points, but the price of admission (having to step into that home of Boganus Australis Capitalus, the Belconnen Mall) was just too high.

If they want to test it out in a harsh environment they should have let it loose in charnwood.

..or, put a red wig on it and take it up to the House of Reps.

Or Wentworth Ave between Dawes and Telopea Park…

It would be swallowed by the massive crack that has developed at Dawes, Qbyn bound.. I’ve seen cars disappear 🙂

I can imagine all the wheels taken and it up on bricks

The deal was that if you had your photo taken with the rover, you went into a draw to win 100,000 frequent flyer points. They are taking the rover around a few westfields in Sydney over this weekend. Not sure if it’s making it’s way anywhere else.

It’s part of QF’s big promotional campaign right now.

Yes it is the QANTAS replica. Disappointed I didn’t remember this and missed it.

Looks more like a QANTAS rover rather than a NASA one.
