Suzuki Ertiga Ownership Experience & Review
In 2020 I decided to buy a Suzuki Ertiga because our family was growing and out-of-town trips often required seven seats. In this video I tell you about my ownership experience of the past 4 years and 40 000km. I go into detail on its practicality, reliability, efficiency and tell you whether I am happy with my decision, and whether you should consider an Ertiga for yourself.

2023 Subaru WRX Manual Review - South Africa
Переглядів 1,1 тис.10 місяців тому
(apologies for the poor sound quality - I bought a new mic online and only found out after filming that it was horrible - will fix it for next time!) The new 2023 Subaru WRX is available in manual and CVT guises, and most likely the latter will be the top seller. However, when Subaru told us we could have our pick for a long-term test car, we chose the manual, and what a treat it was. This is t...
Suzuki S-Presso Review : South Africa 2023
Переглядів 7 тис.Рік тому
One of South Africa's favourite budget cars, the Suzuki S-Presso has been updated for 2023. In this video I report on my experience with the GL derivative and give you my opinion on its safety, infotainment, efficiency and value for money features. If you are looking to buy an entry-level new car in South Africa, here are the reasons why you should consider the Suzuki S-Presso. VIEW FULL SPECIF...
Cape Town Car Culture: Dodge Viper GTS steals the show at first Park 'n Pizza of 2023
Переглядів 180Рік тому
I take my 1971 Opel GT to the first Park 'n Pizza car meet in Cape Town of 2023. Mpho, our intern, drives my Subaru SVX (and gets spotted by a VERY enthusiastic fan later on). The star of the meet was undoubtedly Jess Goedhals' Dodge Viper GTS.

2023 Hyundai Palisade Review and Test Drive: South Africa
Переглядів 7 тис.Рік тому
The new 2023 Hyundai Palisade benefits from more than just a cosmetic update. That said, the design upgrade is impressive, and gives the flagship Hyundai a lot more road presence. Under the skin not much has changed in terms of its powertrain, but there are added safety and comfort features. For the price of a regular 7-seat pick-up based SUV, it presents a mighty compelling argument. VIEW FULL...
2023 Ford Everest Review and Test Drive: South Africa
Переглядів 17 тис.Рік тому
The new 2023 Ford Everest is now available in South Africa and I spent a month and 4 000km with it over the festive season. I tested the Ford Everest Platinum flagship, powered by a 3.0L V6 turbodiesel engine with 184kW, and priced at just over R1.1 million, without a service or maintenance plan. Ford claims the new Everest is now a Toyota Prado rival and not competing with the Fortuner. Is thi...
BMW E38 750iL V12 Engine Smoothness Test
Переглядів 1 тис.Рік тому
A short video to show you just how smooth the V12 engine of this 1997 BMW (E38) 750iL is. Using a R5 coin placed on the engine cover, with the engine running, the coin doesn't fall over. Not bad for a 25-year old car with more than 230 000km on the odo! At the time of filming this car was for sale.

2022 Porsche 911 Targa Edition 50 Years Porsche Design Review
Переглядів 5 тис.Рік тому
The Targa, which straddles the coupe and cabriolet body styles in the Porsche 911 range, is an acquired taste, but not only has the variant endured… Porsche has created a special edition of the 911 Targa to celebrate 50 years of Porsche Design. It certainly looks the part and with its GTS drivetrain, it also goes like the clappers. But is this numbered Porsche worth R3m? VIEW FULL SPECIFICATION...

Confessions of a Petrolhead (Ep1): Hannes & Ciro talk cars (mostly)

Should you consider the Opel Zafira Life as an alternative to its more established rivals? Maybe....

    Beautiful, and comfortable. A question: when you wear flip-flops, like in this video, do you drive with flip-flops or do you go barefoot? Regardless of the fact that flip-flops, both with a manual and automatic car, can get stuck on the pedals, I prefer to drive barefoot, for greater feeling on the pedals and for greater grip.

    The front left and front right park sensors only detect objects within 25cm. That is far too late to stop in time if there is an object you were not expecting. The design states it will notify you when objects are within 60cm, but that isn’t achieved in real world tests.

    Regarding the SUV's front-wheel drive system, I'm curious about its performance on slippery surfaces such as a sloping dirt road in the countryside or very steep and slippery roads in Cape Town. Can you provide insights into how well it handles these challenging conditions, and if there are any specific features or technologies that enhance its traction and stability in such scenarios?

    • @Hannes_Oosthuizen
      @Hannes_Oosthuizen 4 місяці тому

      Hi there. Like most Chinese cars with a bit more power, throttle application needs to be smooth and sensitive. If you give it too much it will break traction. Of course, now there is an all-wheel drive model, too.

Plus for off reading, the 7 has an all wheel drive and has a higher ride clearance than the 8 if you are into off roading
