As a true petrol head I always
enjoyed driving manual cars, they
give the true feeling of being in
control of the vehicle and always
ensuring that the car is at the right place in the
rev range to pull strongly, be it to overtake or
pull out of a corner.
But for myself and many others who have to
suffer through the daily grind that is rush hour,
automatic gearboxes are becoming more and
more popular.
Recently on the launch of the Nissan 370Z we
were told that worldwide 57 percent of sports-
cars sold were equipped with an automatic gear-
box of sorts. In the 370Z the automatic variant
is only fractionally slower than its manual
counterpart, a small price to pay for everyday
comfort I think.
Another iconic vehicle that was launched in
its 6th generation this month is the Volkswagen
Golf 6 GTI, the DSG gearbox option available in
this model is one of the best types of automatic
gearboxes available.
This gives the driver the comfort of an auto
but the exact same performance as the manual
from 0 – 100 km/h, with the DSG only really out
in the top speed department, where it is a whole
2 km/h slower. The DSG gearbox offers lightning
fast gearchanges both up and down through the
box. When accelerating, for instance, in third
gear, fourth has already been pre-selected. The
only difference is that while third gear’s clutch
is closed, fourth’s is open. The advantage, of
course, is that when the time arrives to actually
upshift, it’s a simple matter of disengaging one
clutch and engaging the other; no actual gear
movement needs be made. It’s this elimina-
tion of the gear selection process that makes it
so rapid. Clutch actuation is a relatively simple
and quick process compared with moving gears
around. It’s why these double-clutch transmis-
sions are so much speedier than either manual
gearboxes or the single-clutch automated ver-
sions such as BMW’s SMG. Acceleration is
quicker because there’s less of a pause between
gears, and the entire process adds more control
since gear selection is so precise. This gearbox,
like many, also does still offer a element of
driver involvement as gears can be changed by
pushing or pulling on the lever or using the F1
style paddles.
Even in racing applications the manual gear-
box is dying out, any proper rally car uses a
sequential gearbox, while Formula One has the
paddle shift steering wheel system and even
World Touring car contenders such as the SEAT
Cupra team have opted for the DSG gearbox
setup.
The M-DCT gearbox first seen in the M3 and
now available in other BMW models is lightning
fast in the way it changes gears and can be
setup in a number of ways depending on how
the driver feels like driving the car that day.
The bonus with gearboxes like this is they often
come with a launch control function too.
And just look at the Porsche pricelist and you
will see that almost all their models are now
available with their PDK gearbox, which is a
similar dual clutch setup to Volkswagens DSG
and just as effective. The big surprise is how
effective these gearboxes have been on the op-
tions checklist.
Yes there is still that school of thought
that believes a human will always be able to
do things better than a computer, but that is
maybe only true for a tiny percent of the driving
population that have lightning fast reactions
and permanently wear their racing overalls and
helmets.
The problem is that while there is extensive
Research and Development going into the devel-
opment of automatic gearboxes, the develop-
ment of manual gearboxes is mostly standing
still.
This is why I believe that in the not too dis-
tant future the so called automatic gearboxes
are going to become so good that a manual
transmission simply wont be able to compare
anymore.
Enjoy our technology issue...cheers

Are you looking for a vehicle
that is practical, sporty, and
offers modern saloon com-
fort? Well of course, anyone
would, but there isn’t an especially wide
range to choose from out there. And that
is why BMW introduced the new BMW 5
series Gran Turismo, a car which defines
a brand new segment in the automobile
world. The BMW 5 series is a combina-
tion of elegance, space and comfort and
this future-orientated extension of the
BMW 5 series is quite unique in the upper
middle vehicle segment. The 5 series Gran
Turismo strives to bring two of BMW’s
strongest selling points, luxury and power,
together into a single package. And with
the BMW 5 series Gran Turismo it seems
they have achieved just that. The 5 series
Gran Turismo combines the proportions
so typical of a BMW with an elegantly
designed silhouette as well as four doors
with frameless windows, transforming it
into a harmonious and complete unit.
The luxurious interior combined with
futuristic design themes makes the 5
series Gran Turismo’s interior a place
you’ll look forward to visiting. Comfort is
further enhanced by easy entry to the car,
a slightly elevated seating position, large
window areas, and an optional panorama
glass roof. These features coupled with
exquisite materials and supreme quality
of finish ensures a sumptuous feeling of
absolute comfort. The interior also offers
generous space, with legroom comparable
to the BMW 7 series. Under the hood the
BMW 5 series Gran Turismo offers owners
one of three engine choices, the new 3.0
litre straight-six petrol in the 535i, the
top-of-the-range V8 TwinPower Turbo in
the 550i and a 3.0 litre straight-six diesel
in the 530d.
Touring In Style
Continuing on their successful
M3 range, BMW unveils the
new BMW M3 Edition Models,
an exclusive variation of
the popular sports car. Based on the M3
coupe, the M3 Edition Models offers a
range of four highly individual cars for
the true M3 connoisseur. These models
will boast perfectly harmonised modifica-
tions in body design and interior features
and will be available in four new exclusive
colour schemes namely, Alpine White,
Black, Dakar Yellow and Monte Carlo
Blue. The exterior paintwork will also be
matched on the inside with individually
matched interior designs. In addition to
this the engine compartment lid will be
finished in black and the BMW kidney
grille, side gills and the dual tailpipes on
the exhaust system will come in dark
eloxy-plated chrome. The Edition Models
will also feature beautiful interior trim
in Carbon Structure Leather with white
contrasting seams and the Black Novillo
Leather seats will feature bespoked
contrasting seams and ensures comfort
and an exquisite look. But the features of
the new M3 Edition Models aren’t purely
cosmetic, all four Edition Models will come
with specially designed light-alloy rims
and a unique suspension that lowers the
entire body by 10 millimetres, adding
to the sporty feel of the M3. But apart
from the wide range of customisation and
colour options the main aspect of the M3
Edition Models will be their exclusivity.
BMW revealed that in the interest of ex-
treme exclusivity their production period
is limited to just six months and that
only twenty of these special models will
be made available for the South African
market on special order. Pricing for the M3
Edition Models start from R831 000 for
the Black and White models and R837 000
for the Yellow or Blue. So if you have the
cash and you’re a hardcore BMW fanatic,
you might want to take a look at the M3
Edition Model.
Exclusivity Is Key
With the launch of the
Renault Twingo earlier
this year Reno fans
in South Africa were
treated to a zesty and practical new small
car. But there is more good news for
Renault fanatics in South Africa with the
launch of the new Twingo RS sport model.
With the launch of the Twingo RS, Renault
claims a wider variety of people can
experience the thrill of owning a Renault
Sport model. The RS combines modern
styling and youthful spunk with track-
proven performance and the motorsport
heritage of Renault Sport. Like all Renault
sport models the Twingo RS was designed
and developed by Renault Sport Technolo-
gies in Dieppe, France. With upgraded and
sharper exterior styling and a revamped
sports interior the Twingo definitely looks
the part. However Renault says the up-
graded looks isn’t all that the Twingo RS
has to offer, on the contrary the Twingo
RS features a highly tuned, twin-camshaft
1.6 litre engine. The naturally aspirated
16-valve engine produces a maximum
output of 98 kW at 6 750 rpm with a
torque peak of 160 Nm at 4 400 rpm.
This little powerhouse is really evident
when noting that the Twingo RS goes from
0-100 km/h in 8.7 seconds and reaches
a top speed of 201 km/h. The Twingo RS
also boasts a sports tuned chassis and
ESP stability control making it a sports car
at heart. The Twingo RS will be available
from a recommended retail price of R195
000.

Motoring news
Set to be unveiled in the
third quarter of 2009 is a
new and very talked about
vehicle from Volkswagen,
the Amarok. But don’t expect another
road hugging city car, the Amarok is set
to be the German automobile giants first
foray into the pickup segment. With the
introduction of the Amarok, Volkswagen
is seeking to enter the global pickup
market generally dominated by Japanese
manufacturers. The name Amarok comes
from the Inuit language whose people hail
from Northern Canada and Greenland and
the name literally translates to wolf. The
Inuit regards the wolf as the king of the
wilderness, an impressive figure due to
its strength, robustness, endurance and
superiority, and this is what VW strives to
associate the Amarok with. The Amarok
will be produced in Argentina at Volkswa-
gen’s “Pacheco” plant near Buenos Airies,
and this boasts well for South African us-
ers as the rugged terrain in South America
is comparable to ours, hence you can be
sure the Amarok will deliver. The Amarok’s
design will be concentrated around reli-
ability and suitability for off-road driving
which makes it a very attractive proposi-
tion. Having been developed from scratch,
the Amarok will be launched as a double-
cab pickup with four-wheel drive, and a
single-cab version will be available at a
later date. The pickup will feature state-
of-the-art robust engineering and a pow-
erful yet efficient common rail turbo diesel
injection (TDI) of the next generation will
be used in the powertrain. The Amarok
will be launched in South Africa late in the
third quarter of 2010 and promises to be
a tough new player in the 4x4 and pickup
segment.
A Volkswagen Pickup?
Hyundai motors, South
Korea’s largest automobile
manufacturer recently
began receiving pre-launch
orders for its Elantra LPI Hybrid Electric
Vehicle (HEV). The car, which is the first
hybrid developed by Hyundai will also
be the worlds first car to be powered
by a Liquefied Petroleum Injected (LPI)
engine. The 1.6 litre LPI Gamma engine
will work together with a 15 kW (105 Nm)
electric motor and a Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) and will ensure that
the Elantra HEV emits just 99 g/km of
CO2 and 90 percent fewer emissions than
an equivalent petrol powered Elantra,
qualifying it as a Super Ultra Low Emis-
sion Vehicle (SULEV). The vehicle is also
the world’s first to make use of advanced
Lithium Ion Polymer rechargeable bat-
teries, these have higher energy density,
lower manufacturing costs, and are more
resistant to physical damage than previ-
ous batteries. The Elantra LPI Hybrid will
enter the market as a mild-type hybrid
with an impressive fuel economy rating of
17.8 km/l, this represents a 47 percent
improvement over a conventional 1.6
litre auto-equipped Elantra. So if thinking
green is your thing, be sure to give the
Elantra Hybrid some thought. Hyundai is
accepting pre-launch orders until the 7th
of July, a day before it officially launches
in the Korean market.
A Green Machine
Rolls-Royce aficionados will
be pleased to learn that the
new Ghost model will deliver
peerless riding dynamics
by making use of the very latest develop-
ments in chassis engineering. The Ghost
will make us of a state-of-the-art chassis
which uses an intelligent four corner
air suspension system and multi link
aluminum front and rear axles. Accord-
ing to Rolls-Royce Motor Cars CEO, Tom
Purves, “the Ghost will be as refined and
as cosseting as anything that this marque
has ever produced.” Designed to be fully
integrated, each of the cars dynamic
handling and safety systems have been
engineered to work together in harmony.
Systems including Active Roll Stabilisa-
tion, four corner air springs and Variable
Damping Control operates in harmony and
imperceptibly to the occupants of the car,
providing the best possible comfort and
ensuring that the tyres maintains opti-
mum contact with the road. The new air
suspension system is so sensitive that it
can detect even the smallest of changes;
for example the movement of a single
rear passenger from one side of the seat
to the other, and will compensate accord-
ingly. In addition to comfort this stately
car will be powered by a new 6.6 litre
turbocharged V12 engine and will feature
an 8-speed gearbox. So look forward to
great style and comfort in the Rolls-Royce
Ghost later this year.

speeds, and those that come fully-kitted: with
air conditioning, hot showers, microwaves,
deep freezes, televisions – you name it. The
bonus of the latter is that you never have to
fork out for pricey holiday accommodation or
search for property, which can be very hard
to come by in sought-after holiday destina-
tions. Andre from Twin Boats says that boating
is also a wonderful way to bring the family
together, ”There’s something for everyone.
From grandma who can enjoy the tranquil-
lity of a day out on the water, to younger kids
and teenagers who can get into healthy and
exciting water sports.” Amongst others, Twin

cruiser – a sport fishing dream that’s loaded
with lifestyle; everything your heart could
desire and more, including not one but two
luxurious sleeping cabins. Broderick Sports
will also showcase world-leading wakeboard,
ski and performance powerboats from Mas-
terCraft, luxury runabouts from Cobalt, and
luxury motor yachts from Azimut. The Award
Winning National Boat Show represents the
entire spectrum of leisure and sport boats:
wakeboard boats, waterskiing boats, fishing
boats, bow riders, deck boats, cruisers, sail-
ing charter and catamarans, ski boats, sports
fishing yachts, inflatables, even jet skis and
trailers. Boating exhibitors include Bluewater
Marine and Sport Fishing, Boating Interna-
tional, Agon Marine, Waterworld, Catamaran
Marquee, Hansen Boatz & Toyz and Honda.
Don’t worry if you’ve never been behind the
wheel of a boat before because the Offshore
Sailing Academy will point your compass in
the right direction. What’s more, you can
investigate insuring your new boat and the
outdoor lifestyle that comes with it; exhibitors
Club Marine Insurance, Compendium Insur-
ance Group and McCrystal & Partners will
be at the show to help you. In fact, if it has
anything to do with water, both on it and near
it you’re sure to find it at the 2009 National
Boat Show featuring Dive Expo: from the
world’s most thrilling water toys to the world’s
most fuel-efficient speed boats. Expect to see
some of the sexiest power boats, sail boats
and leisure toys out on the water this summer,
try out the latest scuba diving equipment
and explore local and exotic boating holidays,
destinations and marina properties, witness
spine-tingling attractions like the Wake Wars
Wakeboarding competition and the live Bass
Africa Classic weigh-in, Rapala ‘Fishing for the
Future’ workshops, casting ponds for kids,
and get the chance to win a boating lifestyle
and a scuba diving lifestyle worth more than R
200 000! Also, the economy may be sour but
the deals will be sweet at the National Boat
Show. The show is the perfect opportunity
to take advantage of special discounts and
show deals and it won’t be hard to hook more
than your fair share of bargain deals. You can
even buy your brand spanking new limited
edition Firefish Harbour T-shirt from Firesfish
Harbour in association with the National Boat
Show, featuring Dive Expo with a perfectly
clear conscience because all the proceeds
will be donated to two worthy charities: the
Ikholwa Home and the Starfish Foundation.

Marine news
Now for the latest flybridge
cruiser from Fairline Boats,
the Phantom 48. This is
the perfect live-aboard
boat. Importer Derrick Levy of Boating
world is particularly impressed with this
15.19m (Beam 4.46m) model. “She re-
ally is an amazing craft and her spacious-
ness is unparalleled,” he says, “great for
entertaining.” A curved seating area and
a table on the flybridge accommodates
six and converts to a cushioned sunbath-
ing area when required. The covered
aft cockpit leads to a large teak bathing
platform which can hold a 2.7 metre RIB
(for quick trips ashore or just for fun) and
is equipped with a hot and cold shower.
Cool contemporary interior finishes in
sophisticated American White Oak present
an expansive open plan saloon/dining
area. The table converts electrically from
a cocktail table to a dining table, seat-
ing eight people with ease. Six to seven

Marine news
After a successful visit to the
Sanctuary Cove Boat show
in Australia recently, Derrick
Levy of Boating World is
pleased to report that Riviera continues as
a leader in the luxury sport fishing market
and is as popular as ever. Despite the
first day of the Show being cancelled due
to the heaviest rains on the Gold Coast
in 50 years, eleven new Riviera boats
were sold with a total value of over R116
million. A further five Riviera’s were sold
immediately after the show confirming
that the market has great confidence in
the Riviera brand. There were sales across
all three lines in the Flybridge, Sport
Yacht and Offshore Express ranges. The
exciting new Riviera 5800 Sport Yacht was
launched to great acclaim by the media
and the boating public - a major victory
for the company with nearly half of all
reported sales at the show. The company
also announced a new line of large Riviera
Motor Yachts at the show, ranging from 22
to 25 metres. These new models extend
the range of options for dedicated Riviera
owners close to super yacht dimensions.
Fairline was also well represented at the
Show with a Fairline Squadron 58 and a
Fairline Phantom 48 on display on which
many orders were signed.
Success at Sanctuary Cove
Riviera brings a new innova-
tion to the market, the 43
Offshore Express! This
exciting sport utility craft,
family entertainer and game fishing ma-
chine is ideal for those fishing trips to Mo-
zambique or even further afield along the
West coast. Importer Derrick Levy says,
“The 43 is ruggedly sophisticated with a
luxuriously functional interior and loads
of space in the cockpit, on the helm deck
and below decks.” There are three design
versions - open (which features a tuna
tower), targa and hardtop. The cockpit is
a game fisherman’s dream! Big enough to
fit a full game chair (or an entertainment
table) with space left over, this area has
moulded toe kicks, fish bins on either side
and an optional live-bait well built into
the transom. Forward of the cockpit, the
raised helm deck area is spacious enough
for six to eight adults. The saloon provides
storage galore with dedicated space for
additional rod storage in the lounge. The
43 is well-equipped for weekends away,
sleeping five comfortably. Twin Volvo
IPS 500 (370hp) D6 diesel engines are
standard equipment running Volvo IPS
propulsion units. The Volvo IPS system
includes traditional twin lever controls as
well as the joystick to simplify one-handed
manoeuvring of the boat, in and out of
tight marina berths.
A Fisherman’s Dream
Continuously striving to pro-
vide a reliable, convenient
and performance based out-
board, Yamaha has recently
unveiled its new F40F. This new four
stroke is a true outboard; engineered, de-
signed, and developed specifically for the
marine environment. Its three-cylinder,
single overhead camshaft design means
powerful performance in a compact pack-
age, and that performance is available
in all the varying shaft-length models to
effectively power a myriad of applications
and designs. Used in conjunction with
Yamaha’s electronic multi-point fuel injec-
tion, the F40F offers dependable turnkey
starting in both hot and cold conditions.
A single overhead camshaft provides
precise valve timing for maximum power
with minimum weight. This 6-valve, SOHC
design efficiently exchanges intake and
exhaust gasses for responsive power and
fuel efficiency. A large, on-engine water-
separating fuel filter further adds to its
long-term reliability approach, as does an
integral engine monitoring and warning
system and Yamaha’s renowned Ultimate
Corrosion Protection System. From its
front-mounted gearshift and ignition key
switch controls, to the easy-to-use Vari-
able Trolling RPM Switch, it’s ergonomical-
ly designed to provide maximum control
with maximum comfort. The benefit?
Ultimate convenience, expansive available
information and great control, all in a
compact, lightweight, easy-to-own-and-
operate package. The F40F’s displacement
is an impressive 747cc and it’s clocked
at 40 hp @ 5 500 rpm. All in all the F40F
comes together as a mixture of reliability,
smooth operation, outstanding fuel effi-
ciency and great performance to make the
new Yamaha F40F an incredibly powerful
and versatile engine, both for now and in
the years ahead.

news
The organisers of the Dakar
Rally have announced that
from 2010, only motorcycles
of up to 450cc engine capac-
ity would be allowed to compete. And
the first outcome of this new ‘rule’ is that
KTM – who’ve taken eight consecutive
wins at the Dakar in recent years – have
announced their immediate withdrawal
from the Dakar Rally. The announcement
regarding the 450cc engine limit being
implemented from 2010 does seem a bit
unfair for KTM, whose Dakar racebikes are
fitted with 654cc single-cylinder engines.
Various KTM teams and riders had already
started preparing for the 2010 Dakar Rally
and the new rule would certainly mean
that all their plans have now gone down
the drain.
‘Every sport regulation needs changes
and adjustments to new developments to
retain an interest in it, but this also re-
quire the appropriate lead times. We have
the entire material for the 690 Rally mo-
torcycles for our factory team as well as
that for 50 customers motorcycles in our
storage facility ready to be constructed in
June. Riders contracts have been finalised
and all the team members have been
engaged. We will now fully concentrate
on the World Rally Championship and we
will seek out alternatives,’ says Winfried
Kerschhaggl, KTM Motor Sport Director.
Dakar Rule Change
The 2009 Erzberg Rodeo lived
up to its name of being the
toughest one day race in the
world. DCM Chrome and KTM
sent Darryl Curtis, Louwrens Mahoney and
Altus de Wet to compete in the annual
Erzberg Extreme event. Split over three
days, riders have two days to qualify in
the prologue which is a 14Km sprint up
the mountain. They get only one run per
day and only the fastest 500 are allowed
to start the Hare Scramble on the last day.
After two runs Darryl Curtis qualified
13th, Altus de Wet 32nd and Louwrens
Mahoney 37th.
It was important to qualify within the
top 50 and start on the front row. Jade
Gudzeit and Gray Dick also qualified in
10th and 22nd
“Tougher than anything I’ve ever rid-
den!” were Taddy Blazusiak’s first words
after reaching the Red Bull arch inside
the Erzberg-Arena. It was definitely the
hardest Hare Scramble of all times and
Taddy crowned his Erzberg rodeo success
with an unbelievable margin of more than
40 minutes over the second placed rider.
The 2008 Roof of Africa winner Chris
Birch came home in a creditable eighth
place. Jade Gudzeit and Darryl Curtis
(DCM Chrome KTM) helped each other
through some unrideable sections of the
route finishing in 15th and 16th places.
Louwrens Mahoney (DCM Chrome KTM)
conquered the iron giant coming in as the
21st and final finisher. Altus de Wet (DCM
Chrome) got time barred after a bad start
and some bottle necks out on the course
got the better of him. Gray Dick had to
pull out of the race due to a broken gear
selector shaft.

The opportunity to ride for the German
based Kölling-Yamaha-Team came about
very suddenly and, together with sponsor-
ship assistance from Mr Price and Yamaha
Distributors South Africa, Sweigers has
jumped at the chance to show off her im-
mense talent in the international arena.
The Kölling-Yamaha-Team, under the
leadership of team principal Carsten
Kölling, will provide Nanda with a fully
race prepared Yamaha YZ250F together
with full race support, mechanic, spares,
fuel and lubes, race van and hospital-
ity. When questioned about this exciting
opportunity Sweigers said: “This is just
so amazing! I can hardly believe that in a
matter of days I will be racing against the
worlds best lady motocrossers in an actual
Grand Prix! With such short notice there
seems so much to do and organise before
I get on the plane to Germany. I am really
excited about this opportunity and I can’t
wait to fly the South African flag high. I’m
realistic about my chances but I intend to
give it my very best shot. I would like to
particularly thank my sponsors Mr Price
and Yamaha Distributors South Africa for
making this dream come true for me.”
Sweigers will be pitting her skills up
against the worlds best women moto-
crossers, including the likes of Germany’s
Stephanie Laier, Maria Franke and Larissa
Papenmeier, as well as defending cham-
pion and current series leader, France’s
Livia Lancelot.

We journalists are lucky, or so
they say, as we get to drive
and experience the latest
cars, bikes and water craft
as they become available. That may be true,
but we also have a job to do, which is to inform
readers and subscribers about what is good, and
what isn’t as good. But every once in a while
there are new products that come out that just
grabs the attention, not simply because they
look good, but because they are loaded with
technology that astounds.
June of 2009 turned out to be a month of
surprises as far as launches go, with specifically
the new Z4 and a brand new Sea Doo personal
water craft being launched. It only makes sense
that there would be new technology in any new
model launch, but when it is technology that
radically changes the way you look at these
machines, it demands attention.
Now the BMW Z4 has been around for a num-
ber of years, starting life as a Z3, and although
it has always been a little radical in terms of
styling, it never really lived up to what it should
have been. But with the latest version of the Z4,
BMW have clearly hit the nail on the head. The
new Z4 is the first BMW roadster ever to feature
a retractable hard top, with a two-piece electro-
hydraulically retractable hardtop in lightweight
aluminium shell construction. The hardtop opens
and closes fully automatically in each case within
20 seconds. Upon first glance, it is quite easy to
mistake the Z4 for a 6 series, but then you real-
ize that the bonnet is even longer, and there are
definite styling cues that just shouts that this
is a sports car. This car almost resembles the
iconic 850i of years gone by, but in a much more
modern package.
But it is not just the outside styling that gives
the new Z4 its sporty yet luxurious persona,
as the interior is spacious, modern and super
functional. The Z4 is both comfortable and styl-
ish, with all-round visibility up 14 per cent from
the outgoing model. A further advantage is that
the four side windows of the new BMW Roadster
may be lowered individually as required. The
low seating position near the rear axle gives the
driving experience typical of a BMW Roadster.
Comprehensive use of BMW EfficientDynamics
technologies serves furthermore to provide an
unparalleled balance of driving pleasure and fuel
economy. And last but certainly not least, the
top model is available not only with a manual
six-speed gearbox, but also with sports auto-
matic featuring seven gears and double-clutch
transmission. Boasting Dynamic Drive Control
as standard, the BMW Z4 enables the driver to
vary the set-up of the drivetrain and suspension
at the touch of a button in three modes. BMW
iDrive, in turn, is now available for the first time
as an option on the BMW Roadster, the new
generation of iDrive coming together with the
optional Professional navigation system (stan-
dard on sDrive35i).
The most sporting and dynamic version of
the new BMW Z4 comes with the world’s first
straight-six power unit to feature Twin Turbo
technology, High Precision Injection with direct
injection of fuel, and an all-aluminium crank-
case. The use of two turbochargers each supply-
ing three cylinders with compressed air ensures
a standard of spontaneity never seen before on
a turbocharged engine. The power unit builds up
peak torque of 400 Newton-metres without the
slightest delay, then maintaining this high level
Technology Alive
Issue 57Car & Leisure 15
of torque throughout a broad speed range from
1 300–5 000 rpm. Maximum output of 225 kW
comes at 5 800 rpm, and the BMW Z4 sDrive35i
accelerates to 100 km/h within just 5.2 seconds
(seven-speed sports automatic with double
clutch in 5.1 seconds). Top speed is limited to
250 km/h.
High Precision Injection is a key function
in the philosophy to save fuel to the greatest
possible extent. Injecting fuel directly into the
combustion chamber, High Precision Injec-
tion offers a cooling effect allowing a higher
compression ratio and optimising the efficiency
of the combustion process. The second genera-
tion of direct petrol injection developed by BMW
ensures significant benefits in fuel efficiency
without in any way restricting the dynamic
qualities of the power unit. Hence, the BMW Z4
sDrive35i achieves average fuel consumption
in the EU test cycle of 9.8 lites 100 kilometres,
enhanced to an even better 9.4 litres with the
car’s seven-speed double-clutch sport automatic
transmission.
As an option the top version of the new Road-
ster, the BMW Z4 sDrive35i, is available with
BMW’s newly developed sports automatic com-
plete with a double-clutch gearbox. This ensures
even faster acceleration, combining this extra
performance and dynamism even in compari-
son with the regular six-speed manual gearbox
with all the comfort features of BMW automatic
transmission. Sports automatic gives the driver
the choice of either an automatic gearshift or
manual selection of gears. A newly designed
electronic gearshift lever on the centre console
serves to control the sports automatic whenever
required. As an alternative the driver is able to
shift gears manually by means of paddles on the
steering wheel.
In the SPORT and SPORT+ modes, this
ensures significantly more powerful accelera-
tion with an even faster gearshift, gears being
shifted by closing the clutch even faster than
before, with sporting feedback going straight to
the driver.
Featuring a double-joint tiebar front axle
made largely of aluminium and further enhanced
by spring struts and a centrally guided rear
axle, the new BMW Z4 comes with proven axle
concepts in a configuration perfectly tailored
to the specific characteristics of BMW’s unique
Roadster.
A particularly outstanding feature is consistent
lightweight technology in the area of the front
axle, the double-joint construction offering ideal
conditions for supreme dynamics thanks to kine-
matic arrangement of the various components.
The rear axle of the BMW Z4 Roadster, in
turn, stands out through its compact configura-
tion and precise wheel guidance, clear distribu-
tion of functions between the longitudinal arms
connected to the body and the track control
arms pivoting on the rear axle subframe facili-
tating the set-up of the suspension. As a result,
directional stability, steering behaviour and lane
change stability may all be optimised indepen-
dently of one another.
EPS Electric Power Steering plays a leading
role also in the BMW Z4 segment, enhancing the
precision and comfort of steering manoeuvres
and at the same time reducing fuel consump-
tion, since the electric motor for steering power
assistance is activated only when required or
desired by the driver.
Technology Alive
Issue 57Car & Leisure16
The new BMW Z4 comes with new high-per-
formance brakes, fading-free characteristics, low
weight, and low brake pad wear. At the same
time the BMW Z4 is the first car in its segment
to feature an electrical parking brake activated
and released by a button on the centre console.
The latest generation of DSC (Dynamic Stability
Control) serves not only to activate the ABS
brakes and ensure stability on slippery surfaces
by activating the brakes or reducing engine
power, but also comprises other functions such
as Braking drying, Brake Pre-tensioning as well
as a Start-Off Assist on the new BMW Z4. Act-
ing in a similar way to a differential lock, DSC
furthermore serves to prevent slip on the inner
wheel in a bend running under minor load or no
load whatsoever under dynamic, one-sided driv-
ing conditions.
Activating the traction mode again at the
touch of a button, the driver is able to raise
the response thresholds for intervention by the
brakes, thus enjoying the option, for example,
to set off on loose snow with the drive wheels
slightly spinning. And whenever desired, the
driver is also able to deactivate the DSC control
system altogether.
Which brings us to the new Sea Doo RXT iS
255. The performance segment is all about the
highest performance and most leading edge
technology. The 2009 Sea-Doo RXT iS 255
model gets its performance from a supercharged
and intercooled 255 hp Rotax 4-TEC engine.
And now it comes with a host of technology and
innovation.
The RXT iS 255 is equipped with BRP’s all-
new, industry-first, Intelligent Suspension (iS)
System. iS delivers a smooth ride, while being
incredibly versatile and very user-friendly. With
15 cm of travel, the RXT iS 255 is factory cali-
brated to accommodate the larger waves typical
of off-shore riding. iS supports the entire rider
environment, so the operator can stay seated,
while the impact from waves is absorbed by the
suspension. iS is also rider adjustable on the
fly. A rocker switch on the left handle bar allows
the rider to fine tune the suspension calibra-
tion through nine different settings from soft to
firm. This way, the operator can adapt the ride
according to personal preference and changing
conditions. The current setting is displayed at
the top of the Interactive Multi-Function Digital
Information Centre.
The major benefit of iS is to enhance the PWC
experience by allowing the rider to travel longer
distances with more comfort and less fatigue.
For passengers, iS also means less strain, plus
High Precision Injection is a key function in the philosophy to save fuel
an enhanced feeling of security and comfort.
When the RXT iS 255 is turned off, or the rider
engages “Park” mode by pressing a button on
the Info Centre, the iS system automatically
lowers the centre of gravity of the watercraft by
almost 76 mm for greater stability at rest.
The RXT iS 255 is also equipped with BRP’s
highly innovative Intelligent Brake and Reverse
(iBR) system. iBR is a Sea-Doo exclusive with
several integrated functions: the first-ever on
water braking system; new hands-on-the-han-
dlebars reverse; and an enhanced variable trim
system. The brake system significantly increases
watercraft safety by providing the ability for
rider initiated and controlled slowing down, stop-
ping and improved obstacle avoidance. A lever
on the left handlebar controls braking, similar
to the one found on Can-Am ATV’s. Through the
natural and intuitive positioning and operation of
this lever, the rider controls the amount of brak-
ing and can stop within a significantly shorter
distance. The brake system works by cutting
engine power, deploying the reverse gate and
by reapplying engine power in reverse within a
fraction of a second of applying sufficient brake
lever pressure. After applying the brake, the
system will default to neutral until the throttle is
reapplied.
When the watercraft is stopped and the iBR
lever is squeezed, it acts like a shift lever to
select reverse. For greater control, both hands
remain on the handlebars for all reverse func-
tions. With iBR, the watercraft always starts in
neutral, which prevents the PWC from moving
on startup.
This feature is especially important for dock-
ing and maneuvering in close quarters. A VTS
(Variable Trim System) is also integrated into
the iBR system. This intuitive VTS allows the
rider to easily fine-tune performance to suit
personal preference and enhance handling. The
iBR also allows the rider to pre-set up and down
positions using handlebar-mounted buttons. The
rider can also make on-the-fly trim adjustments
of +/- 4 degrees to accommodate changing
water or load conditions.
Also new is the stepped hull design on the
RXT iS 255 model. On the S3 hull, the “step” is
aft of the intake and reduces drag by creating a
low-pressure zone. The benefit is more nimble
handling and keeping the hull “glued to the wa-
ter”. When combined with the VTS the stepped
hull delivers precise, tunable handling.
The RXT iS 255 S3 hull delivers a smoother,
more stable ride. With its Deep-V design, narrow
chine and 353 cm length, the new S3 hull is
exceptionally stable. The hull design is very tol-
erant to lateral wave impacts, resulting in very
little roll or change in direction from this cross
motion. What’s more, the longer length provides
more room for passengers and allows the hull to
bridge waves better for a smoother ride.
The S3 hull makes the RXT iS 255 excep-
tionally strong. Stiffer than other hull designs
thanks to its ribbed construction, the S3 has the
strength to better resist damage from impacts
and maintain its shape even under high loads.
The new, lightweight hull material is up to 15%
lighter than best material currently in use. The
S3 hull is built using a closed-mold process,
which allows precise control over shape, in addi-
tion to increasing manufacturing efficiency and
being more environmentally friendly.
Both of these machines feature intelligent
technology and awesome looks to match.

A while ago I had the privilege to
drive the new Kia Soul at the of-
ficial media launch in Franschhoek
in the Western Cape. Now at first
glance the Kia looks quite different from other
cars, is it a hatchback? No. Is it a SUV? No, so
what is it then? Well Kia claims to have created
a new entry to the car market with the Soul,
calling it a CUV or crossover utility vehicle. In
other words the Soul has the sporty looks of
a hatchback with the space of a SUV, an all in
one package for the modern consumer, or so it
seems. Kia has put a lot of emphasis on the Soul
being a car for the young, or the young at heart,
and this can be seen in its trendy design and
modern looks. According to Kia, the Soul has
been designed to appeal to a new generation of
drivers by giving them something new and fresh
to experience in the Soul. As Ray Levin from
Kia South Africa put it, Kia’s suggestion to their
customers is to “think inside the box and drive
beyond it”.
With this in mind we can move on to what
makes the Soul different from other cars on
the road. In addition to filling a new gap in the
market with a new urban crossover vehicle, the
Soul will also encourage customers to rethink
everything they’ve known about Kia in the past.
The Soul will sport wide customization options
with different interior and exterior styling to
choose from, whether it be sporty roadster,
sensible family car or contemporary urban style.
But let’s get down to the essentials, the Soul is a
five door hatchback with front wheel drive, this
means no mean off-roading, but you’ll still be
able to tackle most farm roads with it’s
impressive ground clearance of 165 mm. The
Soul also sports impressive measurements all
round with a wheelbase of 2 250 mm and overall
height of 1 610 mm, the base of the windscreen
is also 135 mm higher than in a typical compact
car. Soul drivers will also have access to 340

litres of luggage space in the back with the back
seats upright and 570 litres with the seats folded
down.
The Soul will come standard with a 1.6 litre
Gamma petrol engine equipped with
performance-boosting electronic multi-point fuel
injection and continuously variable valve
timing (CVVT). This all aluminum 16-valve
engine produces a peak power output of
91.2 kW at 6 300 rpm and 156 Nm of torque
at 4 200 rpm. This enables the soul to go from
0-100 km/h in 10.4 seconds and reach a top
speed of 177 km/h. The Soul is also fitted with
a remarkably long wheelbase and is equipped
with a fully independent front and twist-beam
suspension system improving the driving
experience and making handling a breeze. And
I can vouch for this, flinging the Soul through
the twisty wet roads of Franschhoek it never felt
strained or out of control, always stable on the
road and easily maneuverable.
Whilst the Soul delivers a sizeable amount of
power and grip the engineers at Kia haven’t let
up on safety either though. The Kia Soul comes
standard with dual airbags and a four-channel,
four-sensor, ABS anti-lock braking system. This
system also incorporates an electronic brake
force distributor (EBS) which helps distribute
braking force evenly between the front and rear
wheels.
In addition to impressive performance and
safety features the Soul is also packed with
goodies inside. The driver enjoys both a sporty
and compact cockpit as well as a commanding,
high-rise view of the road. The instrument
cluster incorporates Kia’s new
“three-cylinder-style” look with four gauges,
namely a rev-counter, large central
speedometer, engine temperature/fuel status
meter and a bank of warning lights on the right.
The cluster has red-orange negative LCS
lighting which provides improved vision at day or
night, with white figures and graphics against a
black background. The end result is a clear and
detailed new ‘high-tec’ look. Every Soul will also
be fitted with a RDS Radio/CD player with MP3
compatibility and USB, AUX and iPod connec-
tions in the centre console, adding to the Soul’s
reputation as a vehicle for the modern
consumer. Even more impressive is the sound
systems speed rated volume control, six audio
speakers, a 112 watt output, innovative
PowerBass technology, steering wheel mounted
audio controls and a roof-top antenna if you
prefer going more old school.
Adding to this already impressive compliment
the Soul also features 16-inch alloy wheels,
205/55 R16 tires, electric windows in the front
and back, three-point seatbelts for all five
occupants, remote release filler cap, rear
window wiper, electric power steering,
air-conditioning, central locking, electrically
heated door mirrors, a rear spoiler and front
and rear footlights, which is impressive to say
the least. With this myriad of features at your
disposal you may ask yourself if this is going to
cost as much as a luxury 4x4, but luckily no.
The Kia Soul will go on sale for a suggested
retail price of R189 995, cheaper than most
other vehicles in its class. So instead of giving
you another prolonged feature list I’ll just say
this, the Kia Soul is a brilliant car that will
definitely reinvigorate your body and soul.

Mention the word sportscar and a
host of exotic names spring to
mind, so it is rather surprising
that the Nissan Z cars hold the
record for the best selling sports car of all time.
But it is probably because these cars have and
still do, offer great performance, great looks, re-
liability and yet they can still be used everyday,
but most importantly Nissan Z cars have always
stood for great bang for buck. The brand new
Nissan 370Z is no different as its launch marks
40 years of Nissan Z car’s and none of that vital
DNA has changed.
Obviously the sixth generation Z is the fast-
est, most high tech, agile and responsive Z ever
built and it had to be to gain acceptance from
hardened Z fans of this performance icon. Com-
pared to the previous model, the 370Z is lighter,
shorter and wider, with a lower centre of gravity.
The rear wheels are also closer to the driver for
a better feel and the car is a whole 80 kilograms
lighter than its predecessor. But tighter dimen-
sions doesn’t necessarily mean a smaller cabin.
Weight saving initiatives include a carbon fibre
composite radiator mounting and propshaft.
The propshaft also improves the engines ability
to rapidly achieve optimum revolutions while
providing an even stronger, rigid pathway for
that substantial amount of twisting force being
channelled to the driving rear wheels.
The design is iconic Z car but with a more
aggressive stance. Niceties include a flashing Z
emblem in the place of a normal side indica-
tor repeater. The new car has a sharp modern
look, that is unmistakably Japanese. There is the
traditional long, powerful bonnet and athletic,
purposeful stance.
Under that long bonnet beats the heart of
a monster. A new 3.7 litre V6 that provides a
healthy 245 kW and a broad spread of torque
throughout its 7 500 rpm rev range. The flat
torque curve is responsive throughout the rev
range, so much so that the car will pull from as
low down as 800 rpm in 6th gear all the way
to the redline without hesitation or making you
look like a learner driver.
This is thanks to the application of even
further advanced Variable Valve Even and Lift
(VVEL) technology, which despite the obvious
performance gains, also makes the new motor
more efficient. The result is six percent more

power with a 11 percent reduction in fuel con-
sumption.
This performance meant that Nissan claims
a 0 – 100 km/ sprint time of 5.3 seconds for
the manual and 5.6 seconds for the 7 speed
automatic, both variations will run up to an
electronically governed top speed of 250 km/h
quite easily.
The fact is that, worldwide, automatic vehicles
are becoming more and more popular, so much
so that in 2008, 57 percent of sports cars sold
were equipped with an automatic gearbox of
sorts. Enthusiasts now also have a choice of
transmissions to have fitted to their 370Z, the
automatic combines the traffic easing conve-
nience of a full automatic with an element of
driver involvement thanks to the use of the semi
automatic paddle shift.
For the true enthusiast a manual is still avail-
able but it too benefits from Nissans technology
wand. The manual now features the worlds first
SynchroRev matching six speed manual trans-
mission fitted to the 370Z. The perfect harsh
downshift is one which stabilises the vehicle
entering bends at full commitment by match-
ing engine revs with road speed so that the
reengagement of the clutch does not unsettle
the car, which previously needed an experienced
driver to pull off. With this new system the
manual transmission delivers the same levels of
peerless dynamic execution to a much broader
driver base by providing the ideal downshift
every time thanks to an electronic blip of the
throttle at the precise moment for both up and
down shifts.
Dynamically the chassis is now shorter which
means even sharper agility, as well as lower
for improved body control in all situations while
extra width increases lateral grip. The 370Z also
benefits from cleverly calculated weight distribu-
tion. While most believe that a 50/50 split is
ideal, the 370Z has a 53/47 weight distribution
formula which places more weight over the front
wheels, helping with turn in, but it shifts to a
perfect 50/50 as the driver unleashes all the
power as they exit a corner. Electronic Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) systems ensure that
even when pushing the limits of the vehicle
the driver is kept as safe as possible thanks to
sensors monitoring all four wheels and software
that will step in instantly to put an end to life
threatening slides.
Inside, the cabin is certainly roomier, while
cabin materials have been substantially im-
proved. The comfortable sport seats feature
leather upholstery with high grip cloth inserts
and are electrically adjustable and have built
in heating elements for those chilly mornings.
There is also a premium entertainment system
featuring eight Bose speakers and two subwoof-
ers, that has been purpose built for the 370Z
and also features an iPod dock as well as full
integration for your Bluetooth cellphone.
In the safety department a full compliment of
six airbags deploy in the event of a collision.
The manual version will retail for R499 000
and the automatic for R516 000 which includes
a 3 year / 90 000 km service plan. This is only
marginally more expensive than the successful
350Z that it replaces.

It sure is tough to be a sportscar in this day and age, but the new Nissan 370Z fills the shoes of a 40 year old legacy with confidence.

There is an enormous pride in owning
a GTI and it has a lot to do with
how passionate these car owners
are, it is not surprising to hear how
a current GTI owner has owned many of the
previous generation models and is planning on
staying loyal to the brand. The Golf five GTI was
hugely successful with around 40 percent of all
Golf five sales being the GTI, the fifth generation
was also the one that really took the car back to
its roots after two generations of slouchier GTI
models. So improving on the GTI was going to
be a tough task, luckily designers have kept all
the good parts and simply made the new model
better and more refined in every area.
The fact that Volkswagen is and always has
been so involved in motorsport means that the
brand has attracted driving enthusiasts to the
brand that pioneered the hot hatch market.
In terms of design the car is pure Golf and a
consistently clear GTI design is true to its roots.

The Legend Lives OnThe dictionary describes an icon as ‘an important or enduring symbol’ or ‘one who is the object of great attention and devotion’. The legacy that is GTI can be described as both which is prob-ably why this car, successful for its bang for buck performance that has always remained acces-sible to the masses has such a following. We drove the 6th generation at Kyalami.
The honeycombe grille has been retained with
a red frame that hints back to the front of the
ever popular Mk2 GTi. Other sporting accents
include new fog lights, a larger rear spoiler, twin
tail pipes, red brake callipers and 18 inch Detroit
alloy wheels as standard.
Inside the GTI remains comfortable and
sufficiently roomy. Luxuries include dual zone
Climatronic air conditioning, a three spoke
leather steering wheel with aluminium trim,
GTI designed leather sport seats, multi function
display and a radio CD with MP3 compatibility.
But it is behind the steering wheel that
the GTI comes into its own. Compared to the
previous model the new car has an improved
sport chassis, while the ride height is 22 mm
lower in front and 15 mm lower at the rear.
Springs, dampers and rear stabilisers have been
completely retuned.
Kyalami can be a challenging track to drive in
anger due to its range of different corners and
characteristic elevation changes but the GTI
instills a sense of confidence in the driver and
makes mastering the track easy as it dances
from entry to apex to exit with minimal effort,
even through the three hair raising high speed
corners, that can be taken almost flat out. In
short the GTI is now even sharper and more
confident than its predecessors.
The car is very well balanced, steering is
precise and understeer is only evident when
you are doing something seriously wrong. Not
that this was a huge problem on the old model
but it has been almost completely eliminated
thanks to a nifty piece of technology called XDS,
which is in essence an electronic transverse
differential that operates as an extension of the
electronic limited slip differential. This improves
traction and handling through control of the very
efficient ESP system.
An optional extra is the DCC or Dynamic
Chassis Control that tailors the individual han-
dling dynamics at the touch of a button. These
adjustments include the steering that adjusts
to provide better steering as well as continuous
damper adjustment.
Under the bonnet there is still a 2.0 litre
turbocharged engine that now produces 155 kW
between 5 300 and 6 200 rpm, torque is still
280 Nm but is now available earlier, from 1 800
rpm, and lasts longer, all the way to 5 200 rpm.
This can be felt as the GTI pulls strongly out
of the slower corners. Some might think that
VW simply upped the power of the old engine,
but this is in fact a brand new engine featuring
modified pistons and rings, a regulated oil pump,
a new vacuum pump, a new high pressure fuel
pump and new mass airflow sensor. VW claim
a 0 – 100 km/h sprint time of 6.9 seconds for
both the six speed manual and the DSG gearbox
options. Top speed is slightly improved to 240
and 238 km/h respectively.
As always the DSG gearbox is fast and precise
and the way in which the Golf GTI automatically
double de- clutches when downshifting is a joy
for any sports car driver and the sound that
goes along with this is absolutely spine tingling.
The engine and exhaust note on its own is
uniquely GTI, making a sporty impression that
will not irritate car occupants.
The biggest feather in the GTI’s cap is that it
can be a comfortable family runabout, especially
in DSG guise, that battles traffic in the week but
when needed it still offers serious boy racer fun,
whether you get your kicks at the lights or on
your favourite piece of twisty road.
Safety is up there with the best. Systems
include ABS, EBD, ESP, seven airbags,
adjustable whiplash optimised head restraints
and three rear head restraints, resulting in the
obligatory five star Euro NCAP rating
Pricing is only slightly more than the outgoing
model, with the manual selling for R317 300 and
the DSG going for R 331 800, what a bargain.

With the way the world is go-
ing, there is an increasing de-
mand for armoured vehicles.
There has also been an
increased demand for these vehicles with events
such as the recent Presidential election and the
upcoming 2010 Soccer World Cup, which will see
many heads of state and important dignitaries
visit our country.
The kind of people who will buy an armoured
vehicle leave no room for compromise and that
is why they have to have a vehicle like this, to
be prepared and lessen their risk while travel-
ling on the roads, these Land Rover models. It
combines all the qualities of the most innovative
4x4 vehicles on the road with comprehensive
protection for driver and passengers.
Obviously the increased weight will put strain
on the suspension and braking components
of a traditional aftermarket armoured vehicle,
but because this is an OE armoured vehicle,
meaning that it was built this way from the
word go, attention has been paid in these areas.
The suspension has been beefed up to handle

the extra weight without a very big compro-
mise on handling. The braking system has also
been upgraded by racing guru’s Prodrive, who
made their name with the Subaru WRC team.
The Range Rover for example, now sports six
pot front and four pot rear Alcon brakes. The
Armoured Range Rover has undergone the same
durability approval testing as all other Land
rover vehicles, ensuring the same quality build
and feel that you would get in a standard model.
The options list includes specialist Armoured
Vehicle driver training and Global After sales
support. The driver training is very important
because there is no point in having this tool and
not being able to use it properly, this train-
ing teaches defensive driving techniques and
evasive driving techniques which can be used in
threatening situations. Global after sales support
means that should your armoured vehicle need a
service or repair a technician will come do it on
your premises, this means that the safety of the
vehicle itself is never compromised by it having
to leave your sight. The biggest buyers of these
cars will be governments, royalty, statesmen,
pop stars and Blue Chip business executives as
well as NGO’s working in conflict zones.
Bullet resistant glazing, ballistic steel armour-
ing and under floor Kevlar protection all go
towards ensuring it can withstand attack includ-
ing that by high velocity, high calibre bullets.
Standard run flat tyres will keep you moving
following loss of pressure. Extra protection
comes in the form of options including an under
bonnet fire extinguisher, tamper proof exhaust,
self sealing fuel tank and an independent oxygen
supply to ensure a continuous flow of fresh air
to the cabin. The B6 grading means that the
vehicle can withstand attack from weapons up to
and including an AK74.
The commanding driving position of Land
Rover vehicles already puts it head and shoul-
ders above the crowd, helping anticipate dan-
gerous situations and diminishing the element of
surprise. The capabilities of the Armoured Range
Rover are beyond compare. It is the worlds
most complete luxury 4x4, with impressive on-
road performance complimented by its off road
confidence. What is also great is how discreet
the vehicle is, from the outside it looks like any
other Land Rover on the road, great for those
VIP’s that like to travel inconspicuously.
The armoured Range Rover is a powerful
performer as it benefits from the 4.4 litre V8
engine and six speed automatic transmission.
Other technology includes a rear view camera,
Premium Navigation, a touch screen DVD based
navigation system, Bi-Xenon Adaptive Front
Lighting System and advanced communication
via the Personal telephone Integration System.
The Discovery is powered by the 2.7 litre TDV6
diesel engine .
And of course all this comes at a price, but if
you are even thinking of buying an armoured
vehicle, the price probably does not matter to
you.

The E-class has been synony-
mous with comfort and safety for
decades. It is not surprising that
technology we first find in E-class
models often trickles down to other Mercedes
Benz models before becoming the norm in many
cars.
The look of the new E-class may have
changed but it is instantly recognisable and in-
creasingly modern. It retains the twin headlamp
face and distinctive V-shaped front. Pronounced
shoulders above the rear wheel arches extend to
the tail lights that are now illuminated by LED’s.
Engine variants include, the E300 and E350
with direct petrol injection (200 kW) and the top
of the line E500 (285 kW) are included in the
range of engine variants in the new E Class. By
optimising engine design it has been possible to
reduce the fuel consumption of these models.
The E-Class Coupe is introduced with the
E300 six cylinder engine which is based on the
previous E280 model that still produces 170 kW
and 300 Nm.
The V6 and V8 models are equipped as stan-
dard with a seven speed automatic transmission,
steering wheel selector lever and shift paddles.
But it is the host of technology that makes
this car stand out from the rest. The new E-class
is the first car in the world to be equipped with
headlamps which adapt to the traffic situation
and respond automatically to avoid dazzling
other drivers. The optional Adaptive Highbeam
Assist uses a camera on the windscreen to

recognise oncoming traffic and vehicles moving
ahead and to control the headlamps so that
their beams do not reach the other vehicle. The
range of the dipped headlamp can be extended
from 65 to as much as 300 metres. If the road is
clear, the system performs a gentle transition to
high beam. This new system is available as part
of the lighting package that includes bi-xenon
headlamps, the Intelligent light system, active
cornering lights and daytime running lights.
Also available is a lane tracking package that
includes Blind Spot Assist, which is a new devel-
opment along with Lane Keeping assist.
Innovative technology means that the new
E-class is very sensitive to its driver attention
level, and warns him or her of drowsiness in
good time. This new Attention Assist drowsiness
detection system, that comes standard on all
models, uses sensors and 70 parameters to ob-
serve the drivers behaviour and alert them if it
detects that they are getting drowsy, by means
of visual and audible warnings.
The well establiashed radar based assistance
systems from the S class are now also option-
ally available in the E-class, which includes long
and short distance radar. The radar supported
systems are able to assist the driver with emer-
gency braking. Their sensors are linked to the
Brake Assist PLUS system, which automatically
calculates the braking pressure to prevent a col-
lision in critical situations. When the brake pedal
is pressed, the system immediately provides
the calculated level of braking assistance. If
the driver fails to respond to the warnings, the
radar system first initiates partial braking action
and then if there is still no driver response and
a collision is unavoidable, emergency braking is
initiated.
Distronic Plus is a radar based proximity
control system that automatically maintains the
E-Class at a set distance from the vehicle in the
front, braking it to a standstill if necessary and
accelerating when the gap ahead is sufficiently
large. This system works in conjunction with the
traditional cruise control system, ensuring stress
free trips on the motorway. If the distance to the
vehicle ahead decreases too quickly, the system
gives the driver visual and audible warnings.
With seven airbags as standard, belt tension-
ers, belt force limiters, crash responsive head
restraints and ISOFIX child seat attachments,
the new E-Class has even more extensive safety
features than the preceding model. Another
standard feature is the PRE-SAFE system that
activates precautionary protective measures in
potentially hazardous situations, so that the seat
belts and airbags are able to fulfil their protec-
tive function to the full during an impact.
Apart from being an extremely safe car the
E-class is also an extremely comfortable car,
continuing to set the standards for long distance
comfort. In this new model engineers have
achieved further advances with the new saloon,
especially where ride, seating and climate com-
fort are concerned. Standard equipment includes
a further improved suspension with adaptive
shock absorbers. These automatically adapt
to the current driving situation by reducing
the damping forces when driving normally and
therefore improving ride comfort. When taking
bends at speed the system switches to maxi-
mum damping effect. The AVANTGARDE line
features dynamic damping characteristics and a
lowered suspension.
The new E-class will be the downfall of the
indecisive, it provides Mercedes customers with
a choice of several engines and three suspension
variants, but also two design and equipment
lines, three wheel/tyre combinations in 16, 17
and 18 inch size, twelve exterior paint finishes
and six different seat upholstery materials. The
choice of interior trim has also been increased,
now including high gloss exotic wood, open
pored wood and brushed aluminium trim.
In South Africa the E-Class has maintained
its dominance in the premium luxury segment
with consistent sales giving it a market share
of 46 percent. Since 1947 Mercedes Benz has
produced more than ten million sedan vehicles
in this vehicle category, making the E-Class the
worlds most successful business saloon by far.

The Chevrolet Lumina SS has been
around for a while now, and for
the newest generation muscle car,
General Motors has subtly updated
the interior as well as the technology coupled to
the automatic version for better fuel economy –
all still with the driver in mind. The result is all
the raw power you would expect, tempered by a
degree of refinement that provides a responsive
and enjoyable driving experience.
The Lumina sedan has undergone evolution-
ary processes throughout the years, and the lat-
est minor updates serves to add to that process.
Sourced from General Motors in Australia,
this model range has topped that country’s car
market for many consecutive years. The vehicle
was specifically designed for left-hand-drive
and right-hand-drive applications, making use
of clever ideas such as an integrated handbrake
function so that the model platform could poten-
tially enter any market around the world.
The Lumina is still a vehicle for people looking
for a spacious, well-equipped vehicle that pro-

vides exceptional power at an affordable price.
More than just a mere performer, the Lumina
range is surprisingly refined – offering excellent
luxury, safety and convenience.
The Lumina offers stylish and dynamic lines
that provide a bold presence. The sporty nature
of the car is emphasised by the front air dam
and rear spoiler that smoothes airflow over the
vehicle. Striking 18-inch alloy wheels complete
the exterior styling package.
The driver and front seat passenger in the
Lumina SS are protected by frontal and thorax
airbags while full-length curtain airbags provide
protection for both front and rear sections of the
cab in the event of a side-on impact.
The Lumina SS boasts sharp handling and
good all round stability thanks to a Linear Con-
trol Suspension – an advanced four-link system
at the rear and multi-link strut system at the
front. Stopping power comes with compliments
from large fade resistant brakes.
The Lumina SS sedan is a very driveable car
with a strong feel, the engine giving responsive
and torquey delivery.
The V8 engine is matched to a dual exhaust,
quad outlet system that is focussed on ensur-
ing low back pressure, which assists significant
increases in gas flow efficiency which in turn
helps deliver power and torque increases.
The 6-litre Generation IV V8 still delivers
power of 270 KW at 5 700 rpm and torque of
530 Nm and 4 400 rpm. Fuel economy controls,
include a regulated voltage control to reduce
alternator power consumption. Although we had
the manual on test, the electronically controlled
six-speed automatic transmission version will
shut down half of its cylinders when setting
cruise control at a 110 km/h. This function fur-
ther helps with fuel consumption and emissions
control.
The Lumina SS is packed with an extensive
list of standard equipment: Power steering,
remote rear view mirrors, cruise control, power
windows, a height and reach adjustable steering
wheel, as well as a user-friendly trip computer,
including visual and audible warnings for under-
speed in addition to overspeed. The driver seat
is four-way power adjustable, and the driver and
passenger seats offer lumbar support adjust-
ment.
The audio package consists of an in-dash
six-CD changer and RDS radio. A high perfor-
mance amplifier drives the speakers while steer-
ing wheel mounted satellite controls provide for
easy tuning and adjustment by the driver. The
system is Bluetooth cellular compatible.
The Lumina SS is still one of those ultra en-
joyable cars that just keeps on entertaining on
the drive. The awesome V8 sound and aggres-
sive styling adds up to a very good package, and
at the price it offers excellent bang for buck.

As an established and respected
player in the motor industry,
Fiat has always been known for
producing reliable, affordable
and practical road cars. But compared to other
Italian automobile manufacturers like Ferrari
or Lamborghini, most Fiat’s are practically tor-
toises. Not anymore though because Fiat is lead-
ing the race to squeeze more performance out
of their cars than anyone else. And surprisingly
enough, they’re starting by downsizing their
engines. They’re doing this to retain their ‘green’
crown as the most eco-friendly motor manufac-
turer in Europe. Now to achieve the seemingly
impossible dream of lowering emissions whilst
increasing performance Fiat has introduced its
revolutionary new T-Jet engines.
These motors work with the adoption of a
new-generation turbo charger combined with a
smaller capacity engine. And this allows Fiat to
achieve performance level comparable or even
better than much higher-capacity units, but
with significantly lower fuel consumption and
emission levels. By adding the turbo, maximum
torque is increased dramatically and is made
available at a very low rpm, thus providing
quicker responses compared to conventionally
aspirated engines. And it’s worth mentioning
that Fiat is the first manufacturer to make use
of this new technology. At present you’ll be able
to find the new Grande Punto and Bravo models
utilizing the T-Jet technology, and its success is
evident when glancing at the sales figures, over
850 000 Grande Punto’s sold last year. And the
new Grande Punto Series II models, in 1.4 T-Jet
three-door Sport and five-door Dynamic outfit
is officially SA’s best performance car in the sub
R180 000 bracket, and the only car in that cat-
egory to boast a turbo-petrol powerplant. Now
let’s take a look at the specs, in the new Grande
Punto the 1.4 T-Jet delivers a peak power output
of 88 kW at 5 000 rpm and a maximum torque
Fiat is leading the race to squeeze more performance out of their cars than anyone else.
Issue 57Car & Leisure34
of 206 Nm, with 200 Nm available at as little
as 1 700 rpm, an impressive figure to say the
least. These results are achieved thanks to the
low inertia of the turbocharger, generating the
best performance in response to the accelera-
tor and this smooth acceleration enhances the
drive whilst producing the performance of a
true sports car with an impressive top speed of
195 km/h. Under the power of the 1.4 T-Jet the
Grande Punto will accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h
in just 8.9 seconds, and still fuel consumption
remains low, just 6.6 l / 100 km, a truly amaz-
ing feat by the engineers at Fiat. The revolution-
ary T-Jet motors are also available in the Fiat
Bravo, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see them
filtering through more of the Fiat line-up in the
future.
But performance isn’t the only things you look
at in a technology feature, it’s the finer things
inside the car that really catches your attention.
And Fiat is leading the pack as far as innova-
tion goes with many new and exciting features
in their new vehicles. But probably the most
convenient thing about Fiat’s new technolo-
gies and features is that unlike certain German
manufacturers, you wont have to take out a
second mortgage on your house just to afford
the optional extras, everything is standard. One
of the most exciting new features in the Fiat line
is the Blue&Me infotainment system developed
in a partnership between Microsoft corporation
and Magneti Marelli, a part of the Fiat group and
a company that excels in automotive technol-
ogy. Blue&Me is a device which offers Bluetooth
and USB connectivity and is compatible with
most mobile phones, MP3 players and other
media devices. This device provides a hands-
free system and allows you to listen to music,
phone, scroll down names in your phonebook
and receive text messages through Bluetooth,
all without ever taking your hands off the wheel
or your eyes off the road. Also introduced to
the system is a new portable navigation unit
called Blue&Me Map that incorporates satellite
navigation into your Fiat. Another amazing new
innovation is EcoDrive, a system unveiled at last
years Paris Motor Show. EcoDrive is a state-of-
the-art system which offers drivers the option of
tracking their driving efficiency, it collects data
on CO2 emissions and fuel consumption levels,
saving them to a USB device using Blue&Me’s
versatile USB port which can then be connected
with your PC and analyzed on Fiat’s website.
This amazing feature is available free of charge
and in the first five months of its launch has
seen an amazing 35 000 users. According to
Fiat, EcoDrive’s advice can cut Europe’s CO2
Issue 57Car & Leisure 35
emissions by 700 tons, enough energy to light
up Geneva for eight months! So, how does it
work? Well, as you drive the system collects
information on how you handle the vehicle and
how efficient your driving style is. You can then
upload the data and take an in-depth look at the
consumption and emissions for each journey,
and then be advised on how to drive in a more
economical and environmentally friendly way.
And by following a progressive set of tutorials
the more eco-responsible driver can expect a 15
percent improvement in vehicle handling, which
in turn means a 15 percent cut in CO2 emissions
and a sizeable saving on fuel.
And on top of all of these features the new
line of Fiat Grande Punto’s for 2009 also offers
extra niceties. And you’ll find these specs on
all of their vehicles, even the entry-level 1.2
Active, the smallest and cheapest of the Grand
Punto series sports dual front airbags, ABS with
EBD, remote central locking, power steering,
front electric windows and mirrors, and a trip
computer. And these features only improve as
you go higher into the Fiat range with the range-
topping Grande Punto 1.4 T-Jet coming fitted as
standard with ESP (Electronic Stability Program),
a feature usually exclusive to higher-end and
even sports cars. The sophisticated ESP fitted
on the Grande Punto helps to ensure maximum
control of the car’s dynamic behaviour and cuts
in under extreme conditions when car stability
is at risk to help the driver keep control of the
car. When the ESP’s computer system picks up
instability in the vehicle, for example when the
car is sliding on the road it generates a yawing
movement in the opposite direction and brakes
the appropriate wheel whilst reducing engine
power to restore the car to full stability. So
when we look at Fiat’s recent technological of-
ferings, you can’t help but be impressed. Turbo
charged engines that increases performance
and fuel efficiency, advanced in-car infotainment
systems and controls, an EcoDrive system that
allows you to track and improve your driving
habits and even advanced driver assist systems
such as ESP. It’s safe to say that Fiat is on the
cutting edge of automobile technology, and
even better news is that these systems are
implemented not only in Fiat’s, but also in other
brands which they own such as Alfa Romeo and
Lancia. So if you’re keen on the latest and great-
est car technology, you might have to look
somewhere you didn’t expect to, at Fiat.

So we’ve all heard about, read about
and seen the Ford Focus, it isn’t
something new on the road and
whilst you may say it’s a “nice” car,
it isn’t something that is especially eye catching
anymore. But now Ford is striving to reinvigo-
rate the Focus with a new series of vehicles for
2009. And Ford has gone all out in their attempt
to give the Focus a new look, the exterior has
been remodeled, interior upgraded and refined
and new engine choices will be available for the
2009 models. The Focus has been gobbling up
South African tarmac for about 5 years now,
being produced locally in 2004 for the South
African and Australian markets and going on to
sell over half a million units. The Focus is also
the only model to ever win ‘Car of the Year’ titles
in both Europe and North America, illustrating
the ability of the vehicle.
Now when you look at the new Focus the first
thing one notices is the newly designed front-
end, Ford didn’t just add a new grill or badge
but instead revised it entirely using kinetic
design elements. The new Focus looks sleek
and athletic on the road and its modern interior
features assure a comfortable drive every
time. When it came to upgrading the interior
Ford placed the emphasis on overall comfort
and adding high-quality materials to improve
ergonomics, this makes the inside of the new
Focus a beautiful and refined place to be. Sitting
in the cockpit the driver now sees a large-
face tachometer and speedometer set deeply
into individual binnacles, positioned above are
small-face water temperature and fuel gauges,
each surrounded by a silver bezel. Between the
two gauges there sits a large LCD screen which
displays information like time, outside tempera-
ture, trip meter, odometer and menu options for
distance to empty, average speed and average
fuel consumption. The centre console has also
been redesigned with new intuitive controls for
the air-conditioning, heater and ventilation sys-
tems and when darkness falls the centre stack
controls becomes illuminated in a soothing soft
red light. USB connectivity on high-grade models
and Blue Tooth capability are also featured on
the new Focus line-up. Speaking of the line-up,
the new Focus will be available in two model
series, namely the entry level Ambiente and the
higer-grade Si.
Whilst a lot of restructuring took place in
the looks department, don’t let this make you
think that the new Focus is all bark and no bite.
Ford will offer four new engine derivatives for
the new Focus line, allowing drivers the option
to choose between favoured fuels and engine
size. Spearheading the engine procession is
the new 1.8 litre Duratec which replaces the
previous 1.6 litre model. It produces 92 kW @
6 000 rpm and has a torque peak of 166 Nm @
4 000 rpm and will be available with five-speed
manual transmission. If you want something a
little bigger though you can opt for the 2.0 litre
Duratec, the model remains unchanged but is
now mated to a new five-speed gearbox with
sequential sport shift. It will produce 107 kW
@ 6 000 rpm with a maximum torque output
of 185 Nm @ 4 500 rpm. If diesel power is
more to your tastes though, you’ll be pleased to
learn that the new Focus will also be available
in a 2.0 litre DuraTorq turbodiesel engine. Ford

also debuts its innovative six-speed PowerShift
automatic transmission with the diesel engine,
this drivetrain combination offers outstanding
fuel efficiency with no compromise to driving
performance. If you prefer manual power though
the TDCi will also be featured with a six-speed
manual gearbox. The diesel derivative sports a
maximum power output of 100 kW @ 4 000 rpm
and 320 Nm of torque @ 2 000 rpm. And last,
but definitely not least is the 2.5 litre Focus ST,
this powerhouse offers 166 kW @ 6 000 rpm
and a peak torque of 320 Nm between 1 600
rpm and 4 000 rpm.
But as the Focus is primarily a comfortable
mid-range vehicle and not a roadster there is
also a good level of emphasis put on safety and
reliability. All models will feature ABS braking
while Electronic Stability Program (ESP) with
Traction Control (TCS) technology will make its
debut with the PowerShift system, providing
increased stability in any situation. Driver and
passenger front airbags are also standard across
the range and side curtain airbags are fitted to
the high-end Si models. A solid driving experi-
ence is also instilled in the new Focus with an
excellent chassis, and this coupled with precision
steering provides a stable road going platform.
And as Ford marketing manager, Ben Pillay puts
it, “While the major changes to the new Focus
are most visible in its new exterior and interior
design elements, there have been extensive
efforts made to improve the comfort and the
ride and drive of the new model.” And this is the
very thing that makes the Focus appealing, it’s
a good looking, mid-range car that provides a
comfortable and enjoyable driving experience
without sacrificing its sporty edge. The new Fo-
cus will be available from Ford with a four year /
120 000km warranty and a roadside assistance
plan for five years or 90 000 km.

Finding yourself in distress on the
water is any mariner or casual boat
owner’s biggest nightmare. And in
the spirit of our technology issue I
took a look at some great innovations that may
save your life one day. First off we have the new
Mariner Channel 150N lifejacket manufactured
by British based Parmaris. This lifejacket stands
out due to its super slim design, not at all like
some of the bulky and uncomfortable lifejackets
on sale today. This lifejacket has a small CO2
gas cylinder that is manually inflated by pulling
a toggle on the jacket, or if you want total peace
of mind for your children or loved ones it’s also
available in an automatic version that inflates
itself when fully immersed in water. They also
come standard with a whistle, oral inflation
tube, a lifting strop, retro-reflective tapes and is
available in one-size fits all. Secondly we look at
something a little more high-tec, the McMurdo
Fastfind 210, a satellite PLB (personal location
beacon) that transmits in both the 406Mhz and
121.5Mhz frequencies. Containing an integrated
50-channel GPS receiver and not being larger
than your average cell phone the Fastfind 210
offers recreational and professional boaters alike
the best chance of being quickly found at sea in
an emergency. And then an even more intrigu-
ing and useful piece of technology is the Nasa
MOBi state of the art, fail-safe transponder man
overboard monitor. This systems works with a
base unit and up to eight active transponders
that can be given to crew members or attached
to valuable equipment. The transponders are
in constant contact with the base unit and each
transponder can even be assigned the name of
the crew member carrying it. In the event of a
crew member falling overboard the base unit
detects the transponders drop in signal level and
then emits a high intensity audible alarm. Three
AAA power cells power each transponder which
can be used for several weeks of continuous
service, truly an amazing piece of kit to have
when braving the open ocean. Other interest-
ing new offerings in the marine safety industry
include innovations such as personal waterproof
first aid kits and automatic fire extinguishers. So
the next time you head out on your boat, be it
on sea or your local dam, be sure to check out
the latest marine safety equipment to keep you,
your crew and your loved one as safe as they
can be.

The first and only 1812cc engine in the industry.
Quite recently, actually just a
day before I attended the new
Yamaha FZS and FZR launch
at the Vaal river, I also had the
opportunity to ride the new Sea Doo RXT iS PWC
which is also featured elsewhere in this issue.
Now, the first thing most people would ask
me is ‘which one is best?’ At first glance it is
easy to accept that the Sea Doo is the better
ski, because it is loaded with brand new and
innovative technology, but in reality the new
Yamaha FZ range is a completely different ani-
mal. You might as well ask me which is better, a
lion or a cheetah? Both are hunters that do the
same things in order to achieve a kill, but they
ultimately hunt in radically different ways to still
achieve the same end result. And that is about
as best a description I can give of the difference
between the latest offerings from Sea Doo and
Yamaha. It really all depends on your preference
of style.
The all-new FZ Series ushers in a new era of
high-performance design as the first sit down
watercraft made for stand up riding. A new
feature for Yamaha that is exclusive to the FZ
Series is an innovative, three-position telescop-
ing steering column that gives the rider the
option to ride seated or standing, depending on
where the rider is most comfortable conquering
the water.
The all-new Yamaha FZ Series combines
an advanced hull and the industry’s largest
displacement, supercharged engine in one pack-
age for the PWC enthusiast that wants a purist
performance watercraft. This next generation of
the Yamaha GP Series offers improved handling,
more power, stronger performance and more
versatility than any previous Yamaha.
The FZ’s all-new hull design combines
remarkably tight turning with an edge-to-edge
inside lean character. The FZ Series features
Yamaha’s exclusive, award winning NanoXcel
hulls and decks that are engineered using nano-
technology to reduce overall weight. The result
is a state of the art watercraft that is quick and
Issue 57Car & Leisure 41
nimble, but with balance and maneuverability.
The FZ Series includes the two-person FZR
that features a muscular coupe-like profile and
the three-person FZS that offers the versatility
to tow or ride with multiple passengers.
Both the FZR and FZS are powered by Ya-
maha’s 1812cc, supercharged SHO engine that
is the largest displacement engine in the PWC
industry. This engine produces awesome power,
but it is also the most fuel efficient in its class
and is optimized to deliver the utmost perfor-
mance using Regular Unleaded fuel. The FZ
styling reflects Yamaha’s racing heritage – sleek
lines, deep gauge automotive instrumentation,
and a masculine fastback profile with bold colors
and graphics.
Throttle response is instant and aggressive,
and the handling is crisp and precise. A pure
adrenalin rush. The fact is that the new Yamaha
is a Cheetah in Cheetah clothing – lean and
mean, built for speed, no frills and no fuss.

For years Heesen has been one of
Holland’s leading manufacturers of
performance super yachts. And it
seems they have reached the ideal
of design and luxury in their new 50-metre gi-
ant, the aptly named Man of Steel. This super
yacht is the largest displacement yacht designed
by Heesen throughout their illustrious 30-year
history. The Man of Steel’s beautiful design
originated from the drawing boards of Omega
Architects and features interior design by Marc
Wallace. As with most Heesen yachts the Man of
Steel continues their design trend of sleek lines
and although it’s a different type compared to
the speedy 3700 the Man of Steel bears the re-
semblance in design, including the reverse sheer
and pelican-beak bow. And its sheer size is also
something to be marveled at with a third deck
level topped by an extensive sun deck giving the
vessel a much more imposing look.
The interior of this vessel is certainly stun-
ning beyond belief, using a fine combination

combination of Macassar veneer with black steel
accents and beautiful stone floors this is a yacht
fit for royalty. And this is accentuated when
taking a look at the beautiful owners area which
includes all of the upper deck aft of the stairway
lobby and includes a study, walk-in wardrobes
and a private bathroom. Also to be found on the
Man of Steel is a VIP stateroom, three additional
guest staterooms and an entertainment room on
the lower deck.
Taking another look at the owner’s area sees
the cabin itself being completely circular with a
revolving double bed in the centre of the room.
Full-height windows offer a panoramic 180-de-
gree view by day and by night the bed can be
revolved to face a big screen television. And
when it comes to entertaining your guests the
Man of Steel offers a big open plan saloon on
the main deck which includes a designer living-
room-like seating area, a fully equipped bar and
a formal dining area. The spectacular luxury
of this vessel is also found on the electronic
entertainment level, in the seating area you
can find a big screen television and a high-end
entertainment system featuring every television
channel fathomable, games and music capabili-
ties. Each cabin also has entertainment features
of the like, though not on such a grand scale.
When stepping onto the deck passengers can
also expect a world of luxury, the Man of Steel
boasts two hot tubs, one on the sundeck and
another aft on the bridge deck, part of the own-
ers private area. Forward of the wheelhouse is
an open-air seating area for guests sheltered by
a retractable awning than can be automatically
deployed like the convertible top on a car. The
seating area adjoins a circular space forward
which can most impressively also serve as a
touch-and-go helicopter pad. And if you feel
like getting off the yacht for a while, maybe to
snorkel or scuba dive on a nearby reef, or just
have some fun in the sun the Man of Steel also
has a spacious aft garage where a seven metre
tender and two jet skis can be kept. Additionally
two more jet skis and a crew boat can be found
neatly squeezed onto the foredeck together with
a crane for deploying them. Some other pleas-
antly surprising features found on this luxury
yacht include a fully outfitted gymnasium and a
corridor with a floor of river pebbles under plate
glass which creates a dazzling environment.
Technically the Man of Steel also proves to
be an exceptionally impressive vessel. With a
staggering range of 6 000 nautical miles at 10
knots this beauty of a yacht is capable of voyag-
ing worldwide on her own power. Propulsion is
gained by 2 MTU 8V 4 000 series engines and
they’ll propel the vessel to a maximum speed of
15.5 knots and a cruising speed of 13 knots. It
has a fuel capacity of 86 000 litres and displaces
a gargantuan 550 tonnes. This palatial vessel
has room for 12 guests and 11 crew members,
so entertaining two or three families is a breeze.
All in all the Man of Steel is an amazing vessel,
bristling with innovative design themes, luxuri-
ous interiors and impressive technical capabili-
ties, and if you happened to be a billionaire look-
ing for a new plaything, do invite me along.

In the spirit of our technology issue we
took a look at the new range of ma-
rine engine and hull designs on offer
today. We start off with the recently
unveiled engine by Honda Marine, the BF60, 60
horsepower outboard engine. This new design is
ideal for pontoons, small centre consoles, skiffs
and inflatables and offers a host of Honda-
exclusive technologies and designs. The BF60
offers you the fuel efficiency and quiet running
of Honda’s established four-stroke outboard
engines combined with a lightweight design
and powerful acceleration. Exclusive Honda
technology such as their Boosted Low Speed
Torque (BLAST) system and Lean Burn Control
combines for a smooth and efficient cruising
motor. On the flip side of the coin we look at the
speedy new engine of the Lancer GT made by
Chris-Craft, a Florida based boat manufacturer.
The Lancer GT uses “future engine technology”
from Mercury Marine to power its new aquatic
speed demon, the speedboat comes equipped
with a 377 Magnum engine which produces 325
hp and can propel it to a top speed of about 115
km/h. And having covered cruising and speeding
lets take a look at a new bulk hauling motor
from Caterpillar Marine. Recently unveiled in
Germany was the 6 MaK M 43 C engines which
has an astonishing combined clout of 64 000 kW,
these are the engines that will power the cruise
ship ‘Nieuw Amsterdam’ and they show of the
capabilities of Caterpillar Marine Power Systems
(CMPS) in high-end propulsion technology like
never before. And last but not least, let’s take
a look at some remarkable hull designs in the
shape of the so called M-hull. This design has
been around for a while but it seems that only
now it’s really catching on, in Venice, Italy for
example M-hulls are especially popular because
their hulls were designed to minimize damage
caused by boat wakes. The M-hull design was
first implemented for military use, as can be
seen on the craft in the picture above. Military
nautical engineers claim the M-hull is a revolu-
tionary new design because the more pressure
is captured in the hull tunnels, the higher the
boat rises out of the water and thus it goes
faster and produces less drag. The M-hull design
has started gaining commercial interest recently
being used in fishing boats and pleasure craft
alike due to its streamlined design. So when
we look at new maritime innovations the future
seems brighter than ever, boats are becoming
faster, less polluting and more streamlined, look
forward to it.

As Mercury Marine, always a leader
in marine engine technology
recently set out to engineer the
perfect outboard engine, they
questioned everything. Every number, every
scenario, every detail and everything done
previously in engine design was rethought in an
attempt to produce one of the best performing
outboards to date. And the result of this is the
Verado, according to Mercury, the world’s most
reliable and advanced propulsion system. With a
power range to choose from stretching between
200 and 300 horsepower, the six-cylinder Verado
delivers an amazing driving experience.
Featuring exceptional reliability, jaw-dropping
power, great acceleration and surprisingly one of
the quietest and smoothest rides ever produced
by an outboard, it’s clear to see that Mercury
has outdone themselves. Noise levels have
always been an issue with boat engines, but it’s
a thing of the past with the new Verado’s. They
use a multichambered Intake Sound Attenuator
that reduces overall noise by up to 14 decibels
whilst at the same time tuning the engine sound
to a more pleasing tone. Acoustic foam lining
along the upper cowling and lower cowl also
absorbs high frequency engine noise, helping to
give the Verado its best-in-class sound rating.
You’re also in for an exceptionally smooth ride
with the Verado, it runs smoother than conven-
tional V-block outboard motors thanks to its in-
line design which provides a smoother-running,
more compact engine design.
Worrying about precise docking manoeuvres
is also a thing of the past with the Verado’s
exclusive Electro-Hydraulic Power Steering
system which eliminates steering torque while
delivering a precise steering feel. The Verado’s
extensive compliment of features continues with
the SmartCraft Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS)
System, this system delivers automotive-like
control, instant throttle response and smooth
shifting by eliminating the hesitation of tradi-
tional mechanical cable systems. DTS has been
through extensive testing, over 50 000 hours
to make it the most rigorously proven control
system on the water today. And when it comes
to fuel management, SmartCraft also provides
up-to-the second information on fuel range, lev-
els and flow, ensuring an accurate and depend-
able reading on fuel information for improved
efficiency and peace of mind. And lastly, no
more worries about spilling your favourite drink
as the boat lurches forwards, the Verado Perim-
eter Engine Mounts are twice the size of typical
mounts and this innovative positioning around
the powerhead virtually eliminates engine-relat-
ed boat vibration. In conclusion, if you want a
fast, reliable and smooth performing engine, the
Verado should be on top of the list.

The litre bike war rages on regard-
less of the fact that our rand is not
worth a whole lot these days, and
another of the new machines to
be unleashed at Kyalami’s Racetrack for 2009,
following shortly after Yamaha’s R1 and Honda’s
Fireblade, was Suzuki’s GSX-R1000, affection-
ately known as the ‘K9’ by all and sundry in the
superbike world.
I am going to get into the price quickly as
that seems to almost overshadow the product
and technology in this market segment at the
moment. The bike has landed at a price of R155
650, which puts it kinda in the ballpark as it
is not quite as expensive as the R1 nor is it as
cheap as the ZX10 and quite close to the Blade.
I need to add though that this was correct at the
time of going to print and certainly could have
changed either way by the time you read this.
So what do you get for your money?
Well without stating the obvious, you get
more power, a lighter more compact machine,
nimbler handling and a more responsive ride
to go with sharper styling for 2009. This is to
be expected though and I will talk you through
these improvement areas as we go along!
From a styling point of view I think the K9 is
the best looking machine of the current crop. I
like the angular lines, and to be blunt, and not
so politically correct, I think it will clean up very
nicely once you remove the rear number plate
holder like almost all do.
Unfortunately, even though they have cleaned

up the look of those massive dual exhausts by
giving them a bit of an angle, they are one of
the first and only things I would toss in the bin
if I owned a K9. Again I am sure many will do
the same and get a grumpy sounding bike at the
same time, I too have never owned a superbike
that I have left the standard pipe on either.
Jumping on the bike before getting ready to
blast around the track quickly revealed a comfy
seat, decent reach to the bars and adjustable
foot pegs for getting the optimal riding position
just right. Sure launch day was not going to be
the day to be doing multiple adjustments, but
even as it was set-up the bike felt good enough
to be ridden hard without perceived discomfort.
Sitting there waiting for the green flag also
allows one to appreciate the good ergonomics
of the K9. The instrument cluster that includes
an easy to read rev counter, obligatory gear
position indicator, digital speedo and various
selectable LCD readouts for trip and stuff is real
easy to read.
Letting you know that this around 180 Hp (I
think because I couldn’t find a figure that was
confirmed on any website) machine is just as
ready for the track as it is for breakfast running
is the lap timer function that I couldn’t get to
work. And if I did I would not have remembered
to press the button each time I came past the
pits anyway and the Suzuki Drive Mode Selector
Issue 57Car & Leisure54
Switch that allows you to choose various engine
and performance maps.
What isn’t hidden somewhere is the technical
bits that go into making the power. You have a
brand new, 999 cc four cylinder engine that is
lighter and shorter and is said to deliver more
power and torque, with improved throttle re-
sponse across the entire rev range. You also get
more compression, up from 12.5:1 to 12.8:1,
larger diameter titanium valves, forged pistons,
shot-peened con rods and specially plated
cylinders.
Fuelling this lot are new 12 hole injectors that
produce a finer fuel mist for better combustion
and iridium spark plugs as standard to produce
a bigger explosion come power time. And they
weren’t kidding, punch the DMS switch to max
power mode and blast out onto the track and
you can immediately feel what they are talking
about.
The power delivery is real strong through the
entire rev range and although you know you are
riding a missile, it never feels like it is trying to
kill you at every twist of the throttle. But again,
make no mistake, come out of Nashua 2 at
Kyalami and grab a handful and the front wheel
goes skyward onto the old back straight. It is
certainly going to also be enough for the break-
fast runners too.
Of course perhaps even more so on the road
where the surface changes quickly and can be
unpredictable, handling and the harnessing of
this power becomes more important than how
quick this bike can get around a track.
I am not even going to try and pretend to be
a suspension expert, but just like most of you
out there, I don’t want to feel a bike slipping
and sliding under me and I also like to know
that should I have to throw out the anchor, it will
stop quickly.
And here I can say that in all of my laps
around the circuit I never once felt like I had got
things out of control and this is thanks mainly to
the fact that the bike is 10mm shorter but with
a 33mm longer swing arm along with big piston
front forks that further improve feedback and
response.
Braking is taken care of by twin 310mm front
discs coupled to four-pot callipers and a single
220mm disc and calliper at the rear and did
exactly what was asked of them over and over.
All in all I came from my time with Suzuki’s
GSX-R1000 K9 very impressed, I liked the
looks, I like the way it delivered its power and
it certainly won’t want or have to hide away
from anything in its class on the weekly Sunday
morning blast!

This is where the new 2009 FZ6R fits
perfectly into the less intense world
of a sports commuter with its easy
to control engine, light weight and
low seat height. This bike is all about motivat-
ing rider confidence and is a blast to ride around
town and on the open road.
Said to be inspired by the older Yamaha
Thundercat, Yamaha designers looked for
improved real world reliability with low end and
mid range power and torque in their new
machine, to meet the demands of todays riders.
There is nothing more intimidating than a bike
that is uncomfortable or too big to ride. New-
comers and lady riders alike will appreciate the
low seat height and adjustable handlebars that
will put the rider comfortably in control and
inspire a sense of confidence. The handle-
bars can be set in two positions 20 mm apart
from each other, while the seat also has a two
position system with options of 20 mm higher
or lower than standard. All these adjustments
including the suspension and seat can be done
with tools provided in the under seat tool kit.
Performance wise the Yamaha FZ6R was
designed to go head to head with bikes such as
Honda’s Hornet 600, Suzuki’s GSR600 and show
the way Kawasaki’s ER6f and the Suzuki SV650.
This is thanks to the fact that the Yamaha
engineers have packed the FZ6R with features,

Street CredAs we have said before, Supersport bikes are great for the speed crazy folk to blast around on weekends... but they don’t make much sense for everyday use.
like a torquey 600cc liquid-cooled, inline four
cylinder engine. This engine was borrowed from
Yamaha’s championship winning Supersport
bikes but has been optimised for smooth, usable
power throughout the rev range. The cylinder
head, crankcases, intake and exhaust manifolds
as well as the electronic fuel injection system
has been revised to create a new engine with
unique characteristics. The camshafts have also
been redesigned to fit the new shape of the
intake system. Revised cam timing reduces lift
and duration, taking the peak off the top end
power but thickens up the mid-range.
In the chassis department the FZ6R features
an all new diamond shaped steel frame which
uses the engine as a stressed member, as well
as a simple, square steel swingarm. Suspension
is handled thanks to a 41 mm fork up front and
a SOQI shock out back. The fork is not
adjustable but the rear shock has a seven step
preload adjuster.
And just because the bike isn’t overly sporty
doesn’t mean it can’t look sporty. Stylish
bodywork lends the FZ6R a sporty look with
aggressive lines borrowed from the YZF-R
series, but with more extensive wind protection,
which matches the upright seating position and
which is needed on a bike that will be ridden
everyday in all kinds of weather. The low
mounted exhaust keeps the mass centralised
while adding to the modern look of the bike.
Stopping is also important in everyday traffic.
This is why standard Brembo master cylinders
grace both front and rear ends of the bike.
Upfronts are two 298 mm discs that are clamped
by a dual piston calliper while a single piston
calliper brings a 245 mm disc at the rear to a
stop.
The FZ6R proves to be a formidable opponent
for any twisty road thanks to good suspension
and great brakes as well as a seating
position, right for every rider, that makes it easy
to muscle the bike through the corners.
With a focus on low and mid range rideability
the FZ6R is a boon about town. It is the ideal
commuter with enough mid range snap to keep
the traffic light racers happy. The great fuel
injection system means it pulls smoothly all the
way to the 10 000 rpm redline, while the
transmission has a smooth feel throughout the
box.
The cherry on the cake has to be the price of
R78 000, which is great value for money and
even more of a bargain if you look at what a
Supersport bike costs these days.

The current models already gets bits
like variable valve timing, keyless
ignition, tyre pressure sensors and
ABS, but the next year’s bike could
push things to a whole new level, with night vi-
sion and head-up display (HUD) technologies.
Borrowing technology from luxury cars are
said to have developed infrared night vision
technology, which will let riders see beyond what
a bike’s conventional headlamps can illuminate.
The system works via a pair of infrared cameras
mounted on the bike, which work together with
the bike’s onboard computer. If these cam-
eras ‘see’ anything (which may be beyond the
headlamps illumination range and which the
rider may not be able to see) in the bike’s path,
the system will issue audio/visual alerts to warn
the rider. The cameras can ‘see’ objects that
are around 300m ahead of the motorcycle, in
the dark, so these could be a very useful safety
feature on a high speed motorcycle, travelling
on dark roads.
Another high-tech feature that Kawasaki is
working on is a head-up display system, which
would project information like the bike’s speed
and revs right in front of the rider’s eyes. The
system will probably work in accordance with
a purpose-built helmet, which would allow this
information to be projected ahead of the visor,
so the rider doesn’t have to look down at the
instrument cluster to access vital information.
These systems will most probably be available
as both standard and optional fitment. Drawings
of the design clearly reveal that the GTR is being
used as the guinea pig for Kawasaki’s night vi-
sion, in line with its role as the firm’s technology
leader.
So, how does it work? The answer lies in a
pair of infra-red cameras mounted behind clear
lenses set into the front of the bike’s rear-view
mirrors. Picking out images even in pitch dark-
ness, these work together like a pair of eyes to
give a stereoscopic view to the bike’s on-board
computer – allowing it to judge how far away
objects are and alert the rider if there’s anything
in his path that’s beyond the reach of the con-
ventional headlights.
One of the cameras also provides an image
to be displayed on an LCD screen set into the
bike’s instrument panel.
The cameras used by Kawasaki are long-
wave “far infra-red” cameras, which pick up their
images based on heat rather than light, so the
system is ideal for highlighting people or animals
in the road but can’t identify objects that are no
hotter than the background. Using far infra-red
makes sense on a bike, where space is at a
premium. As it needs no extra lights – the cam-
eras alone can pick up heat 300 meters or more
ahead of the bike, well beyond the range of even
high-beam headlights.
But the system goes beyond simply reveal-
ing an extended view into the darkness, as it
also works to actively alert riders to dangers. So
you’re not constantly checking the dash-mount-
ed screen for hidden dangers, the on-board
computer is able to identify objects and highlight
them – either using the display itself or an audio
warning via a Bluetooth headpiece in your hel-
met – as well as giving extra details, for instance
a read-out of how far the object is from the bike.
Given the fact the technology is available
right now, and that Kawasaki has already filed
very detailed patents – specifically around the
way the new system mounts on the GTR and
how it integrates with the GTR’s electronics, it
should be on the market soon.
As well as revealing details of its night-vision
system Kawsaki’s latest patents also hint at an-
other big leap in getting information to riders in
the form of helmet-mounted head-up displays.
While initial versions of night vision are expected
to use a simple dash-mounted screen to display
their images and information, the next step is to
incorporate the pictures into a readout right in
front of the rider’s eyes.
This type of technology is already available
on expensive luxury cars, but Kawasaki is the
first to adapt and engineer these systems to
work on a motorcycle. Speculation is that the
bike, equipped with all this technology, will be
revealed at the shows in Paris and Milan later
this year.

It is not only cars and marine craft that are benefiting from new technology. The Kawasaki 1400GTR is said to already be one of the most technologically advanced bikes on the market, but two new pieces of technology should promote it to the top of the super fast, technological empowered Grand Tourer pile.

No matter how careful, prepared
and skilled we are, there is
sometimes the need for reassur-
ing support. In the unlikely event
of an accident Honda is committed to reducing
the number and severity of injuries.
A vital aspect of Honda’s motorcycle safety
research has been careful analysis of accident
statistics. Data indicates over half are frontal
collisions resulting in injuries from other vehicles
or the road surface. Honda engineers are con-
stantly looking for ways to reduce the sever-
ity of injuries and have therefore developed a
motorcycle airbag.
The complex dynamics of a motorcycle ac-
cident mean the interaction between the airbag
and rider can be affected by different types
of crash motion, including yawing, pitching
and rolling. These factors had to be taken into
consideration during the stringent crash testing
process.
The motorcycle airbag system is compro-
mised of the airbag module, which includes the
airbag and the inflator, crash sensors which
monitor acceleration changes and an ECU, which
performs calculations to instantly determine
when a collision is occurring. When a severe
frontal collision occurs, the four crash sensors
mounted on the front fork measure the change
in acceleration caused by the impact and convey
this data to the airbag ECU, which determines
a collision is occurring and whether or not it
is necessary to inflate the airbag. If it is then
deemed necessary to deploy the airbag, the
ECU sends a signal to the airbag inflator which
instantly responds by inflating the airbag. The
airbag absorbs some of the forward energy of
the rider, reducing the velocity at which the rider
may be thrown from the motorcycle , this helps
lessen the severity of injuries caused by the
rider colliding with another vehicle or the road
surface.
ADAC Motorwelt, with a circulation of 14
million by far the most widely read magazine in
Germany, has performed the first independent
Gold Wing airbag crash test. The extensive crash
test conducted by ADAC Motorwelt demonstrat-
ed the airbag’s true protective action. Simulating
an actual crash at 72 km/h, the test illustrated
the strengths of using the airbag technology
long established in cars. The airbag, fitted near
the biker’s tank, inflated in a fraction of a second
and visibly protected the motorcyclist from seri-
ous injury. In fact, the crash test dummy biker
that smashed into the car at a speed of 72 km/h
was virtually unscathed.
Parts of the body where the airbag does not
protect, like the head, the neck and the chest
were nearly unharmed after the test. Without
the airbag, at an accident at that speed, the
driver would have likely suffered fatal head
injuries.

Another piece of car technology that has made its way to motorcycles, is the worlds first motor-cycle airbag, developed by Honda. Although not available in South Africa yet, it has been tested successfully in overseas markets.
