Newest 300C has emotional styling. When you see it you start crying cause its so ugly.

Mini Paceman.

The idea of a Range Rover Evoque competitor from Mini, with the hatches dimensions but an SUVs ride height. Sounded awesome and I still think it looks pretty good.

Pity its just crap to drive. Slow, handles like a tug boat, when spec'ced up it costs as much as an X3 and resale on South African ones makes…

Reports coming out that the same aircraft was involved in a similar collision a few years ago with a Sri Lankan Airbus.

Was driving to work, in traffic and all was normal.
Went round a few corners in the industrial area to get to my company. I hit a speed bump slightly faster than I really should have and a Huntsman spider came crawling out of my aircon vent.
I could have dealt with this for the 2 min drive to the office where I could…

So true.

In South Africa we have:
3 State broadcaster channels
1 big satellite TV company
1 little company that went bankrupt and got bought out by the big company.

Thanks to all sorts of agreements made some time in the middle ages, the big company has first rights to all Internet access TV/movies. This means no iTunes…

For the Kadett. South Africa had a version called the Kadett Superboss, 125kW from a 2,0l engine in 1990!

Heres a Kadett Superboss vs BMW 325iS (South African built E30 super sport. We never got the E30 M3.) with Chris Harris.

I love the dude at 1:32 who drives over the crosswalk faker.

Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited.

Its uncomfortable, the suspension crashes about and the gearbox is a 4-speed auto. The ergonomics are so badly designed that the roll cage takes up a good 10% of the cabin.

BUT its got so much character it makes every drive an event. Theres loads of space for your camping gear and…

I love the glove. Wow.

Lancia Stratos. Don't think there are any in Africa, so not much hope. We do have a nice museum of exotics if any of you are ever in Cape Town. Tick things off your 'to see' list: http://www.fmm.co.za/

I'm in the SA motoring game (read: I have a medium sized car blog).

People have been damaging cars for years, and the manufacturers sort of accept it. If these guys were going a tad too fast and thats it, VW will ask them to just be careful next time. They'd have to have been driving drunk, on the wrong side of the…

Was near a town called Ceres. Near the Franschhoek pass. The whole region is full of awesome driving roads.

A lot of these cars have been ruined by Top Gear. Hummer H3 is a bit vulgar and I'd rather have a Range Rover Sport. BMW Subaru WRX (and STi) are magical. Lambos are still kinda cool. 911 GT3 is for drivers. Posers buy the Carrera drop-top, so that other people can see them while GT3 drivers just wanna be like Rikcy…

They see me rollin'...

Really on point. Going to be a classic in the future. BUT... Which one to buy? 1,8T original or the more powerful, nicer to drive 3,2? Hardtop or Roadster?

I'm gonna call it and say 3,2 hardtop will be the desirable one, with a manual gearbox (Was the first car with DSG yes? Not that one)

Windows XP on my backup system which includes Office 2000

Putting your feet up on the dash. This is my car, not your cousins treehouse. Take your filthy feet off there!

Only saw this now. I once took a fake leg, made a fake arm and packaged them into a medical cooling box with ice and coolant packs. I dropped it off at a company with a note saying "I'll give an arm and a leg to work here". Got the interview the next day.

Nissan 200SX. One of the legends.

*hits Google for Goldrush Rally* If you're ever in SA, DM me. We could take for ages.
