ACT leader David Seymour has been stopped by security after he tried to drive a near 80-year-old Land Rover up Parliament's steps.
The 1948 Land Rover Series I, believed to be the oldest in NZ, was at Parliament as part of a fundraising effort for Manaaki Manawa – The Centre for Heart Research.
Owner and research scientist Julian Paton said the car was being driven from Dunedin to Auckland to raise money for the project.
He hoped to raise $300,000 to fund research into a "revolutionary" new heart valve for children with rheumatic fever.
