A One Million Rand Mazda

11 March 2024

Is it really that hard to believe that a Mazda can cost you R1 million? Cars these days, in general, are priced at crazy amounts, so if I am honest, this doesn’t surprise me at all. And after having driven Mazda’s top of the range CX-60 Takumi model, I can confidently say that it is actually priced rather well. Especially when you consider that Mazda has, in recent…

This is one way to Elevate Honda again

5 March 2024

It is no secret that I wasn’t a huge fan of the Honda WR-V, so I was really looking forward to the new Elevate that has just arrived in South Africa. Was I going to love it? Hate it? Or be straight down the middle about it? Well, I am so happy to report that I actually rather love it and I think that Honda might just have…

GLC Coupé: Style Meets Substance

2 February 2024

Aaaaand the 2024 launch season has kicked off and what a way to start. We welcome the Mercedes-Benz GLC Coupe to the mix, even though it actually launched last year already. What a beauty it is. Especially in black. I don’t think I have ever really given it a good stare down. Generally I do a once over. But at the launch this week I really took my…

Is the Ford Puma just too expensive?

30 November 2023

I never start a review with the pricing, but you will see why I have. I have read a couple of reviews on the new Ford Puma from fellow motoring journalists and all I can say is that they are all playing it very safe. The reason I say this is that while talking to many at the recent launch, they appeared gobsmacked by the price. But in…

The Omoda C5 GT going for gold!

24 November 2023

Well, it is official. I am a gold wheel lover. That’s right. This somewhat vanilla Tannie actually loves gold wheels on a car. Who would have thought it? Certainly not I! It started with the Mini Clubman JCW, then the Audi RS6 Avant Performance, and now the new Omoda C5 GT has got me in all the feels. You might be familiar with the Omoda C5, but this…

The enchanting Jimny five-door is here!

17 November 2023

In 1970, the first Suzuki Jimny made its debut. That means that in 2020, we saw 50 years of Jimny! That is pretty epic. There were a few more generations to come, one being launched the year I was born (don’t guess), but it was the fourth generation that really got people talking. It came in hot! There was more than a year waiting list to get your…
