Residents were extremely unhappy with new street name signs that seemed to have appeared overnight in several areas over the weekend.

The Tshwane metro was, however, well within its rights to start the name change

Die volgende stap in die e-tol-hofgeding teen Sanral is om alle inligting te kry wat aanleiding gegee het tot die goedkeuring van die R20 biljoen Sanral-kontrak, het Wayne Duvenhage van die Bondgenoot-skap teen Stedelike Tol (BTST) Saterdag gesê.

Die (BTST) se geslaagde aansoek om ’n interdik teen Sanral is met groot belangstel-ling in die openbare galery gevolg.

Regter Bill Prinsloo het Saterdag in die hooggeregshof van Pretoria beslis dat die inwerkingstelling van die e-tol uitgestel word. “Die interdik teen die eerste respond-ent (Sanral) word gehandhaaf en Sanral word daarvan weerhou om heffings vas te stel of te kollekteer. Mense word deur die tolpaaie gevange gehou,” het Prinsloo gesê.

Hy het in sy uitspraak ook daarop gewys dat hy besef dat sy bevinding ’n geldelike stremming op Sanral plaas, maar dat dit duidelik is dat talle burgers geldelik sal swaarkry as Sanral toegelaat sou word om voort te gaan. Hy het gesê dat hy daarvan bewus is dat daar duisende, indien nie tienduisende mense is wat daagliks van die tolpaaie gebruik moet maak en as gevolg daarvan geldelik sal swaarkry.

process and an urgent application by Afri-Forum on Monday to try and put a stop to the process was turned down.

New names that have already been put up are Nico Smith Street (Michael Brink), Stanza Bopape Street (Church), Solomon Mahlangu Drive (Hans Strijdom) and Janu-ary Masilela Drive (General Louis Botha).

Councillors from different areas voiced their frustration regarding the street names, but, according to councillor Elmarie Linde from ward 54, it fell on deaf ears.

She said the new policy on local geo-graphical names was approved providing the metro adhered to various conditions.

One of these conditions were that the

old names stay visible next to the new names for two years, but the Executive Mayor, Kgosientso Ramokgopa, decided it will only stay visible for six months.

Adv. Alfred Cockrell SC, wat na-mens BTST verskyn het, het gesê dat Sanral en die tesourie die waarheid omtrent die e-tolstelsel wegsteek.

“Hulle het motoriste laat glo dat hulle geld kan terugeis. Volgens hulle eie weergawe sal daar nie geld daar-voor wees nie, want hulle sê hulle het die geld nodig om hul krediteure te betaal en skuld te delg,” het hy gesê.

Duvenhage het gesê dat dit twee tot drie maande kan duur vir die hersiening van die bevel.

Regter Prinsloo se aanhoor van die hofsaak was nog aan die gang toe Cosatu en die ANC na vinnige samesprekings ooreengekom het om die regering vir uitstel van die inwer-kingtreding van die e-tol-heffing te vra.

“Dit sal ’n taakspan bestaande uit die ANC en Cosatu meer kans gee om alternatiewe finansieringsmodelle te ondersoek,” het Keith Khoza, ’n ANC woordvoerder, gesê en daarby toegevoeg dat die ANC van mening is dat dit nie regverdig is dat die tol-stelsel in werking kan tree voor daar nie op ’n werkbare oplossing besluit is nie.

“This is but one of the reasons why we say the renaming of the 25 streets are not according to policy.”

She said during the mediation of renam-ing the streets, the metro received approxi-mately 3 600 objections regarding the proposed names.

“Residents did submit alternative names, but these suggestions were ignored.”

The fight is however far from over.Kallie Kriel, CEO of civil rights organi-

sation AfriForum, said they had applied for an urgent High Court interdict to stop

Continued from page 1 the metro from going ahead with the name changes and were awaiting the ruling.

“We are not satisfied with the manner in which the name change process were conducted. That is why we turned to the courts. We are determined to stop the metro from going ahead with their street name changes,” he said.

Ben Wannenburg, councillor of ward 50 was also not satisfied with the metro’s street name change procedures.

“I am currently in talks with the prov-ince to get clarity regarding Zambesi Drive. I want to know how it is possible for the metro to change a provincial road. It doesn’t work like that.”

Die omstrede Bontle ke Botho-veldtog gaan voort soos beplan.

Volgens Dikeledi Phiri, woordvoerder van die Tshwane-metro, erken daar was ’n fout met die datums tydens die voorlegging van die Bontle ke Botho by die werkwinkel op 11 April by die Ou Raadsaal.

“Alhoewel die voorlegging verkeerde datums gereflekteer het, het ’n senior amp-tenaar reeds tydens die werkwinkel die regte datums gegee.”

Dié veldtog het talle wenkbroue laat lig omdat die spertye, volgens deelnemers,onrealisties is. Bontle ke Botho (being beautiful is being human) is ’n poging van die metro se kant om skole, raadslede en inwoners te motiveer om hul omgewings groen te maak.

Deelnemers het sowat ’n maand kans om ’n projek van die grond af te kry en in te skryf waar hulle die kans staan om R50 000 te wen. Phiri het gesê die veldtog se datums bly dieselfde tot verdere kennisgewing.

Die sluitingsdatum vir die inhandigingvan voorstelle was op 30 April en die beoordeling vind plaas van 2 tot 3 Mei en die prysuitdeling is ook in Mei.

Raadslid Sam Moimane van wyk 58 is een van vele raadslede wat kla oor die onrealistiese spertye van die Bontle ke Botho-veldtog.

According to Wannenburg, he had sub-mitted a petition with approximately 2 000 signatures against the proposed name change in 2009 and was currently drawing up a second petition to fight for Zambesi Drive.

Pieter de Necker, mayoral spokesperson, confirmed that the new street names would be placed along the old street names for the next six months to two years.

“It is in the interest of motorists to inform themselves about the new names,” he said.

De Necker confirmed the name change process would cost metro taxpayers around R1,7-million.

Met net een been en krukke het die 40-jarige Phillip Ramashala van Soshan-guve oor ’n muur gespring om van die Wonderboompoort-polisie af weg te kom.

Ramashala is op 24 April gearresteer nadat hy by verskeie houthuisies by die Capital Park Pre-Primary School ingebreek het.

Hy is gearresteer op aanklag van huis-braak, besit van huisbreekgereedskap en betreding.

Adjudant-offisier Wanda Olivier, woord-voerder van die Wonderboompoort-polisie-stasie, het gesê alhoewel Ramashala net een been het en met krukke loop, het hy tog oor ’n muur gespring en gevlug.

“Hy het in die pad gesit en gemaak asof niks gebeur het nie. Ons het hom deursoek en ’n skroewedraaier, afgebreekte slotte, sleutels en ’n sproeier by hom gevind.”

Olivier het gesê hoewel die prokureur en aanklaer nie wou glo dat hy skuldig kan wees as gevolg van sy gebrek nie, het adju-dant-offisier Ronel Bronkhorst deurgedruk met die ondersoek.

Sy het hom ook met vingerafdrukke positief verbind met ’n huisbraak naby Laerskool Villieria waar hy ’n geheuestok-kie en ’n radio gesteel het nadat hy by drie klaskamers ingebreek het.

Bronkhorst het onder meer gevind dat die beskuldigde voorheen in 2002 vir huisbraak gearresteer was en ’n opgeskorte vonnis ontvang het. In 2005 het hy vyf jaar effektiewe tronkstraf uitgedien weens ’n huisbraak in die Moot-polisiëringsgebied.

Hy het in die landdroshof verskyn op aanklag van huisbraak en het agt jaar tronk-straf gekry.

Gebrek keer dié dief nie om te steel Pensioenarisse het hul stemme dik

gemaak nadat die 40% afslag, wat hulle van die Tshwane-metro ontvang het, op hul eiendomsbelasting verdwyn het.

Pensioenarisse het reeds in Maart agtergekom dat die korting waarvoor hulle op hul eiendomsbelasting aansoek gedoen het vir die 2011/12 finansiële jaar, skielik sedert Februarie 2012 verdwyn het en hulle weer vir die volle bedrag aangeslaan word.

Raadslid Adriana Randall van wyk 52 het gesê sommige rekeninge is reeds reg-gestel, maar daar is verskeie ander wat nog nie die 40% korting reflekteer nie.

Pensioenarisse is gevra om hul eiendomsbelastingrekeninge dop te hou, en dadelik hul raadslede in kennis te stel indien die bedrag verhoog het sedert Februarie 2012 sodat dit onder die aandag van die metro gebring kan word vir regstelling.

Randall het gesê sy het terugvoer van die metro ontvang, wat die probleem as ’n stelselfout toegeskryf het. Sy het gesê die korting is geldig tot Junie 2012, maar op die stelsel was dit geldig tot Febru-arie 2012. Randall meen dit gaan ure se mannekrag vereis om elke individu-ele pensioenaris se korting weer deur te voer. “Dit is ’n jammer dat dit veral pensioenarisse is wat nou geraak is, want duisende bejaardes lewe van die hand na die mond en so ’n fout het ’n daadwerk-like impak op hul begrotings.”

Randall het ook bevestig dat die aan-soekvorms vir pensioenariskortings op eiendomsbelasting vir die 2012/13 finan-siële jaar teen Julie 2012 beskikbaar sal wees. Pensioenarisse word aangemoedig om, indien hul aan die kriteria sou voldoen, aansoek te doen vir die korting.

Pensioenarisse verloor korting Volle bedrae vir eiendomsbelasting word steeds by pensioenarisse gehef

Pensioenarisse se 40% korting op hulle eiendomsbelasting reflekteer nie op hulle rekeninge nie. Raadslede vra dat pensioenarisse hulle rekeninge moet dophou, en dadelik hul raadslede in kennis stel indien die bedrag verhoog het sedert Februarie 2012.

We work hard throughout our life as adults to provide the best standard of living we can for our families and it’s vital that we make sure that we protect our hard-earned money along the way.

Managing your finances can be a jugg-ling act that is often confusing and over-whelming. Knowing you have life’s ex-penses under control is an excellent way to avoid future stress or unnecessary worry.

With so much advice on how to increase or invest your income and so many ways to spend it, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed sometimes.

However, don’t worry, we’re here to of-fer you tips on planning, saving, investing and managing your finances and will put you on the path to financial success.

Step 1: Acknowledge the importance of your own goals.

Ask yourself what do you dream of one day?

Owning a business, further education, a new car, perhaps a trip around the world.

Write down your top priorities and stick them up inside your wardrobe door or on your fridge. A constant reminder will make the dream seem more real and keep you motivated.

Step 2: Manage household expenses so your ability to save is not compromised.

If money is tight in a specific month, look at ways to trim household expenses.

- Compare prices on websites before you buy.

- Buy according to plan, make a list and buy only what is on it.

- Take advantage of sales and special offers.

- Make the most of your petrol, keep your car serviced and your tyres correctly pumped.

- Go through your home and look for ways to save energy and costs.

Step 3: Pay yourself first.It’s important to establish the habit of

saving by starting a monthly investment.

Treat your savings like a bill, preferably paid by debit order. Put the money into an investment fund towards your big goal.

Step 4: Decide where to invest.Investing in unit trusts is a popular

choice. They give you access to a diversi-fied portfolio without the stress of manag-ing it yourself and if you need to, you can access your money within one day. Most importantly, they have the potential to offer excellent returns over the medium to long-term investment.

There are literally thousands of local and international unit trusts available to South Africans, so how do you decide what’s right for you? The trick is to keep it simple.

Old Mutual Unit Trusts’ Classic 5 In- vestment Collection makes unit trusts even more convenient with a range of five handpicked funds, chosen out of a range of 40 unit trusts, which we believe are the perfect investment vehicles for most types of investors.

With the Classic 5 Investment Collec-tion, you can choose a fund to meet your specific needs, depending on whether you want a lower risk fund or a higher risk fund, which looks for maximum growth.

Then you can use this fund or funds if you choose more than one, as the basis of your portfolio. You can switch between them as your needs change, or you can add other funds from our full fund offering. Bottom line, you call the shots.

For more information about which investments to choose, phone us on 0860 WEALTH (932584) or contact an Old Mutual financial adviser or broker.

You can also use our ‘InvestRight Tool’ online at www.investmentcollection.co.za to help establish how much you will need to save and invest to meet your financial goals, be they short, medium or long-term.

With self-motivation, commitment and discipline, you can achieve your finan-cial goals and take control of where your money goes.

EditorialCOMMENT

It was reported last week that water would become very expensive from next year. Government is planning a massive budget outlay of R573-billion over the next ten years to try to improve our ailing water supply.

Last week Diepsloot experienced mas-sive water supply problems with conta-minated water.

This has placed the focus again on the problems South Africa faces in this regard.

Geographically speaking South Africa has always faced and will always have problems with water supply.

The absence of a fresh water non-sea-sonal river and high altitude exacerbates the problems to supply water to its indus-trial and agricultural heartland.

One commentator pointed out that nei-ther Johannesburg or Pretoria should really

exist.They can do so only because huge

amounts of water are being piped to them from Lesotho and 1 820 meters uphill from KwaZulu-Natal.

South Africa faced an electricity supply problem because the govern-ment ignored the warnings it was given more than ten years ago. The same situation is now facing us with water supply.

A combination of polluted water sources and poor management of dams, sewerage works and treatment plants has led to a situation where our water supply is under serious threat.

The areas our water originates from, is being damaged by a general-ised official disregard for the envi-ronmental consequences of industrial activity.

A further problem is related to the poor management of informal settle-ments.

With inadequate sewerage systems in place and little provision for the removal of waste, large quantities of waste are washed into rivers, where they make their way to overburdened water purification plants.

Many South African municipalities do not have budgets big enough to properly manage the quality of drink-ing water they supply.

In a recent national survey of wastewater treatment plants it was found almost a third required ‘im-mediate intervention to avoid a crisis’.

The problems are exacerbated by poor management of dams, which reduce the supply of water we have available and also affects its quality.

According to a report, only 54% (160 of the 294) dams owned and managed by the Department of Water Affairs comply with modern safety standards.

Water is also affected by the ‘have’s’ and ‘have nots’.

South Africa’s tap water is among the best in the world, but with millions still lacking access to flush toilets and piped water, the threat of waterborne diseases cannot be ignored.

Most people believe that true success and happiness are found in receiving or getting. In other words, a mentality that says: I’m going to get what I can, can what I get and sit on the can; and when I’ve got enough in the can, I’ll be content!

Matthew 10:42 (TLB): And if, as my representatives, you give even a cup of cold water to a little child, you will surely be rewarded. This verse says that even the smallest act of kindness, done to the right person and with the right motive, will be rewarded. True Godly love is love that gives. What is given is not important, but the motive and attitude are what matters. Giving to a child speaks of unselfish serv-ice, because a child will not normally be able to give something back to you. Think of yourself for a moment – do you live to give or live to receive?

Proverbs 11:24-25 (TLB) says: It is pos-sible to give away and become richer! It is

also possible to hold on too tightly and lose everything.

Yes, the liberal man shall be rich. By watering others, he waters himself.

The whole worldly system says: “Save to have”, while God says: “Give to get”.

Give freely of your time, your energy and your resources and you will be amazed at the joy you experience.

When faith gives, then faith can also receive. Why not start today? The world and God are waiting.

Give with love

Klippe langs die pad

Du P Martins

Kleintyd het ons Cowboys and Crooks gespeel en natuurlik wou niemand die crook wees nie want soos ons almal weet, die crooks moet mos doodgeskiet word.

Later het ek gedink daar moet baie crooks in die Bybel se tyd gewees het, want so ’n dik boek oor die goed en kwaad dui mos daarop.

So in die gesoek na die Bybelse crooks vind ek toe uit dat van die mees gehate crooks in die Bybel die tollenaars was.

Net so vind ek toe ook uit dat hulle al toentertyd seker met verkeerskonstabels moes geheul het, want in Psalm 140:6 lees ek: Trotsaards het vir my ’n vangnet gespan en toue; hulle het ’n net uitgespan aan die kant van die pad; strikke het hulle vir my gestel. Sela.

Seker maar waar wat die Bybel sê daar is niks nuut onder die son nie.

Te oordeel aan die string organisasies soos AfriForum, Cosatu, Kamer van Koop-handel, Transvaalse Landbou-unie, Agrifo-rum, Bondgenootskap teen Stedelike Tol, die DA en die Vryheidsfront Plus wat almal toustaan om Sanral teen die hoogste mas op te hang, dra vandag se tollenaars nog dieselfde etiket as hul Bybelse kol-legas.

Die kwessie van tol betaal is al erg ge-noeg.

Wat dit vererger, is die geknoeiery van Sanral om ondanks herhaalde beroepe vir eerlike openhartigheid, hulle steeds met voortvarende arrogansie uit die bloute nuwe tariewe afkondig.

Dit nogal by wyse van ’n Staatskoerant op Vrydag die 13e, asof die skuiling agter die gedrukte afkondiging regverdiging vir ‘gedane sake’ verleen.

Die datum op sigself is insiggewend, want dit is die datum van bygelowe.

Nou ja, as hulle die waarheid op dié

datum wil yk, dan kan ’n mens met reg vra wanneer kan ’n mens hulle glo.

As argitekte van die reëls en regulasies en hoe daar van die publiek geoes gaan word, het Sanral voor die bekendmaking van die inligting in die staatskoerant al hierdie feite seer sekerlik reeds haarfyn geken.

Waarom het Sanral nie voordat hulle in ’n blik gedruk is om voor die hof te verskyn nie die feite bekendgemaak nie?

Waarom het Sanral nie toe hulle in ’n vier-uur-lange samespreking met die Verbruikerskommissie was en die geleent-heid gehad het om dinge reg te stel, nie toe daarvan melding gemaak nie?

Met die verkoop van R20 miljard se effekte wat Sanral vir stelsels ingekry het en die verdere R5 miljard wat Pravin Gordhan, minister van finansies, Sanral gegee het om hulle te help om hul skuld af te betaal, was Sanral in ’n goeie posisie om hul berekeninge te maak van wat hul tariewe moet wees om ’n goeie finansiële oes van Jan Alleman te kry.

Met dit gesê, kom nog ’n Bybelse waar-heid my op wat in Mat 13:12 staan: Want hy wat het, aan hom sal gegee word, en hy sal oorvloed hê; maar hy wat nie het nie, van hom sal weggeneem word, ook wat hy het.

Crooks in Bybel ook

Me Coetzee van Clubview skryf:Ek wil net vertel van ’n voorval wat ek

en my dogter 19 April by Centurion Mall beleef het. Ons was op pad na ’n restaurant om ontbyt te eet en moes by ’n troeteldier-winkel verbystap.

Binne, was twee jong mans besig om klein, en ek bedoel klein, hondjies in die draadvertoonkaste te sit, sommer so drie, vier hondjies gelyk in die hande.

Die boonste vertoonkas staan ten minste

1,5m bokant die teëlvloer, toe die een jong man ’n hondjie laat val.

Na die deure geopen het, het my dogter met hulle gaan praat, onnodig om te sê, volgens die man, was die hondjie onge-deerd. Mens kon sommer sien die diertjie het baie seergekry. Ek het gedurende die oggend met verskeie winkeleienaars oor die voorval gesels en selfs die DBV gebel. Wat staan ’n mens te doen?

MOTORING REKORD MOOT FRIDAY MAY 4, 2012 9www.rekord.co.za

The all new Opel Astra GTC was shown for the first time to the international motor-ing press at the Frankfurt Motorshow in September last year.

Just weeks later this exciting coupe was seen in South Africa for the first time at the Johannesburg International Motorshow where it was announced that the GTC would go on sale in South Africa early in 2012. Now, hot on the heels of its sales debut in Europe, this promise was fulfilled with the arrival of the Astra GTC at GM dealerships around South Africa. GMSA announced it will offer two model variants of the GTC at the launch, the Astra GTC 1.4T Enjoy and the 1.6T Sport.

Both offer the latest in small capacity, turbocharged petrol engine technology from Opel. The Astra GTC 1.4T Enjoy offers maximum power of 103kW at 4 900r/min and peak torque of 200Nm over the wide range of 1 850 to 4 900r/min.

The Astra GTC 1.6T produces 132kW at 5 500r/min with 230Nm of torque avail-able between 2 200 and 5 400r/min. In both models drive is via a six-speed manual transmission to the front wheels.

The dynamic styling of the Opel GTC, with its sculpted profile, sets this model apart in the compact coupe market.

Public interest based on early informa-tion about the GTC was such that prior to the first official showing of the vehicle and several months ahead of its general avail-ability, Opel received more than 15 000 orders.

Unlike most other three-door versions of existing hatch competitors, the Astra GTC was styled as a stand-alone model in the

The Opel Astra GTC arrives in South Africa fresh from its European debut.

All new Opel Astra makes its debut in SArange. Although based on the Astra plat-form, the only common exterior elements shared with other members of the Astra family are the exterior rear view mirror sur-rounds and the radio antenna.

The design brief given to the Astra GTC engineering team was to deliver the ulti-mate expression of Opel’s design language of ‘sculptural artistry meets German preci-sion’ as applied to its current model range. A consideration was overall functionality of the final design.

To define the dramatic profile of the vehicle the designers limited themselves to the use of just three key styling lines to cre-ate tension and the impression of a sculpted form. The first of these lines is a fine one that sweeps downward from the side door to the bottom of the rear fender and ener-gises the appearance of the body side.

The clean frontal design features Opel’s signature centreline crease and is accented by slim ‘eagle-eye’ styled headlamps defined by ‘wing-shaped’ daytime run-ning lights. These bracket the bar mounted chrome emblem that splits the dramatically shaped trapezoidal grille. This imparts a distinct sporty flavour to the frontal styling.

The Astra GTC features Opel’s advanced HiPerStrut front suspension, the first time that this system has been implemented on an Astra model.

Ideally suited for a compact coupe, HiPerStrut delivers improved ride and handling characteristics as well as a more direct steering response – all desirable characteristics for the more enthusiastic driver. This system was first introduced on the Opel Insignia OPC mid-sized perform-

ance model and uses the Astra’s original suspension pick-up points but reduces the kingpin inclination angle by 44% and shortens the spindle length by 46% com-pared to the McPherson strut system fitted to other Astra models.

Precision, feedback, and confidence were the criteria set for the development of the Astra GTC’s uniquely tailored power steering system. The challenge was to maintain a light steering effort at low speeds but to dial in better feel and response together with a slightly higher steering effort at higher speeds.

The GTC’s steering is by a rack and pin-ion system with speed sensitive electronic power assistance. To ensure the optimum level of driver feel and steering feedback

the electric power assistance motor is mounted directly on the steering rack, as opposed to the usual mounting position on the steering column.

With the Opel Astra GTC there is no compromise in functionality despite its coupe design. The Astra GTC offers comfortable seating for five adults with a flexible luggage compartment that can hold between 380l and 1 165l, about 100l more than other vehicles in its class, depending on the seat configuration. There are numer-ous additional convenience storage areas inside the vehicle.

The high quality interior combines sculptured shapes and dynamic lines for a distinctly sporty character enhanced by the choice of upholstery fabrics and colours.


Bernard K Hellberg

Na jare en jare van markoorheersing deur Toyota se Fortuner-gesinsnutsvoertuig het ’n waardige mededinger uiteindelik sy verskyning gemaak.

Die 3.2l Pajero Sport ontwikkel ewe veel perde (120kW) as sy mededinger, maar teen R438 500 is die Mitsubishi R20 400 meer bekostigbaar as die 3l For-tuner. Hierbenewens voel die Mitsubishi (nou deel van die Imperial-groep) ook meer stabiel op teer en is die draaisirkel onder moeilike bostoestande ook ietwat beter.

Al nadeel is dat die Pajero Sport net ’n tweemodelreeks is.

Nou is die Pajero Sport-reeks uitgebrei met die byvoeging van ’n handratmodel. Al die Pajero Sport-modelle word aange-dryf deur die kragtige 3,2l-turbodieselvan die Triton en almal het deeltydse 4x4 met laestrek middelewenaar en ’n agterste ewenaarslot.

Die byvoeging van die handratmodel beteken dat al hoe meer potensiële kopers hierdie ruim en bekwame veldryvoertuig sal oorweeg danksy die laer prys. Die vyf-ganghandratkas vul ook die laestrekratkas aan en maak dit ’n keuse vir die ernstigste veldryers. Tot nou toe was die Pajero Sport, wat in 2009 in Suid-Afrika bekendgestel is, net beskikbaar met ’n outomatiese Tip-tronic-ratkas.

Buite kry die Pajero Sport kopligwas-sers, in die voorbuffer gemonteer, om dit in lyn te bring met ander modelle in die Mit-subishi-reeks, soos die ASX en die Pajero.

Daar is ook kosmetiese veranderinge aan die ligte. Veranderinge in die kajuit sluit in ’n hersiene instrumenthuls en ventilasie-stelknoppe, wat dit ’n moderner voorkoms gee. ’n USB-sok is netjies weggesteek in die rommelkassie en integreer met die RDS-radio, wat ook CD/MP3-funksionali-teit het plus ses luidsprekers.

Die leersitplekke spog met ’n nuwe ontwerp en vul die leerkajuit aan. Die temperatuur in die sewesitplekkajuit kan ideaal gereguleer word danksy ’n outoma-tiese, enkelsone lugversorgingstelsel. Die agterste insittendes hul eie ventilasie-openinge en hulle kan die waaierspoed afsonderlik beheer. Die kontroles van die lugversorgingstelsel is in die dak bokant die twee rye sitplekke gemonteer sodat die agterste insittendes dit maklik kan verstel, terwyl ventilasiekanale in die dakbeslag aangebring is om koel of warm lug aan die tweede en derde ry sitplekke te verskaf.

Die handrat- sowel as die outomatiese Pajero Sport-modelle word aangedryf deur ’n 3,2l-turbodiesel met direkte inspuiting, wat 120kW en 343Nm se wringkrag ont-wikkel. Dit is ’n Euro-lll dieselenjin wat minderwaardige Suid-Afrikaanse 500dpm-diesel veilig kan hanteer, ideaal vir wan-neer jy die boendoes moet aandurf. Die outomatiese model het ’n viergangratkas, terwyl die nuwe handratmodel ’n vyfgang-ratkas het.

Die groot glanspunt van die Pajero Sport is sy gesofistikeerde Super Select-vierwieldryfstelsel met ’n middelewenaar en ’n agterste ewenaarslot. Dit beteken dat

die Pajero Sport gemaklik klaarspeel met die heel strafste veldrytoestande. Hierdie tydrenbeproefde ratkas stel die bestuurder in staat om teen snelhede van tot 100km/h van die 2H-padmodus oor te skakel na die 4H-veldrymodus. Die 4H-stelling gee ’n kragverdeling van 33:67 tussen die voor- en die agterwiele onderskeidelik.

As die terrein nog strawwer raak, kan die bestuurder oorskakel na die 4HLc-stel-ling. Die middelewenaar is nou gesluit en daar is ’n kragverdeling van 50:50 tussen die voor- en die agterwiele. Vir uiterste toestande is daar die 4LLc-opsie met die agterste ewenaarslot wat ook gesluit kan word met ’n oordraverhouding van 1,9:1 vir massiewe traksie.

Die ryhoogte is meer as voldoende, met baie grondvryhoogte (215mm) vir wanneer strawwe terrein aangepak word.

Die toerustingvlak in die

kajuit is be-sonder hoog met leersitplekke, leerstuurwiel met kontroles vir die klank-stelsel en snelheidsbeheer, ’n veelinlig- tingsvertoon, parkeerafstandbeheer, sen-trale sluiting met sleutellose toegang, elektriese ruitverstelling voor en agter, ’n outomatiese enkelsonelugversorgingstelsel, elektriese verstelling vir die kantspieëls, wat ook teruggeklap kan word en ’n hoë gehalte Mitsubishi-klankstelsel met ses luidsprekers, AM/FM-radio, CD-speler en ’n MP3-speler. Veiligheidsaspekte sluit in ses veiligheidslugsakke, ABS-remme met elektroniese remkragverspreiding en vastrapbeheer.

Geringe kritiek sluit in die plasing van die noodwiel onder die voertuig, die opti-mistiese spoedmeter wat reeds 120km/h aandui wanneer jy nog op 114km/h sit en ’n ietwat stram ratskakeling (die voertuig

was nog nuut).

With sales in the doldrums for Subaru (91 units sold in March), the arrival of the new Subaru XV is exciting news for the company. In fact, the company will increas-ingly come to rely on its off-road models (Forester and XV) to boost sales.

The Subaru XV has chunky, modern styling, fabulous road holding, superior driver and passenger safety thanks to seven airbags, which include a knee airbag and fully independent suspension all round.

Standard features include iPod connec-tivity, a sunroof and dramatic two-tone

New modern, reliable Subaru on the horizon

17-inch alloy wheels.Subaru prides itself on rugged, reliable

engineering, including such great features as a chair-driven camshaft drive and rattle- free construction. Costly belt-drive is there-fore eliminated.

Despite the 110kW produced by the flat-four petrol engine, the Subaru XV felt under powered, while the gap between sixth and fifth gear is virtually non-existent.

When the car runs out of steam in sixth gear, you may just as well go straight to four.

At R339 000 the automatic lineartronic CVT gearbox is a better option. This is R10 000 more than the manual shifter.

More good news is the Subaru XV has a comprehensive three-year/75 000km full maintenance plan, a three-year/100 000km warranty and 15 000km service intervals.

I predict that the Subaru XV will do to the Forester what Nissan’s Qashqai has done to the X-Trail, overtaking it in sales within the next three months or so.

The company will rely on the new XV model together with the Forester model to boost sales in the coming months


While there were many positive indica-tors that trading conditions in the South African property market were continuing to improve, distressed properties were still a market reality.

This was according to Peter Gilmour, chairman of Remax Southern Africa, who also headed up the group’s specialised distressed property department.

Gilmour noted that in January and Feb-ruary this year, Remax of Southern Africa received over 300 new sole mandate distressed property leads from various financial institutions for which the group was one of the preferred partners for han-dling distressed property sales.

To date, Remax agents had already successfully sold 100 of these properties.

“Last year Remax reported that dis-tressed properties spent an average of 48 days on the market and fell predomi-nantly into the R250 000 to R2-million price range,” said Gilmour.

He also said that the majority of the distressed properties listed last year by Remax, were situated in Gauteng, which accounted for 70% of the total number of distressed properties compared to the Western Cape’s 10% and KwaZulu- Natal’s 20%.

Gilmour reported that to date in 2012, distressed properties had come onto the market at an average selling price of R900 000.

He also said that close on 80% of these properties had been in Gauteng.

Gilmour concluded that while distressed properties would contin-ue to make up a reasonable portion of available market stock in the year ahead, the sales process still required specialised knowledge to ensure a successful solution for both the seller and the financial institution involved.

Distressed properties still a market reality

Homes that are architecturally distinc-tive or which have a rich history, are al-ways in demand in Johannesburg’s sought after northern suburbs.

According to Jonathan Davies, Pam Golding Properties joint area manager, who is based at the company’s Hyde Park office, said many buyers particularly at the higher end of the market were specifically looking for homes with which they could identify and that suited their own individual lifestyles. “While we sell properties across all price ranges, in this area we deal with many buyers in the price range from R10-million upwards, who wish to express their individuality and their own personal taste through their homes,” said Davies.

Davies also said Pam Golding Properties had a prestigious portfolio of iconic proper-ties that were currently on the market.

“One such exceptional home is situated in Westcliff and is more than 100 years old, it was built in 1902,” said Davies.

Davies said when visiting this grand old home, you might find yourself transported back to a gracious time of croquet, masked balls and horse drawn carriages.

“This ambience becomes evident upon entering the home through the triple volume entrance hall with its magnificent wooden staircase. The house, marketed by Pam Golding Properties for R16-million, is set among rolling lawns and old Cape ash, jacaranda, peach and fig trees,” said Davies.

The house has six bedrooms, all of which have fireplaces and four bathrooms two of which are en suite. There are five reception rooms, including a ballroom and three large garages.

Homeowners want a home with unique story

This classy face-brick house is situated in Zwartkop in a small complex with easy access to freeways and within walking distance from the Gautrain bus stop. The house has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, one spacious living area plus a neat kitchen with a pantry. There is a lapa for entertainment and a double garage offers direct access to the property. There is also space for a caravan or trailer. The property is selling at R1,1-million. Enqui-ries: Estie Watson at Pam Golding Properties on 072-634-4411.

Low maintenance house in small complexLast year, 70% of Remax’s distressed properties were in Gau-teng.

Hy het reeds byna 5 000 pro-vinsiale en meer as 500 nasionale kampioene afgerig, maar ná 60 jaar se betrokkenheid by sy geliefde sport is Hennie Pretorius se blus nog lank nie uit nie.

Muay Thai, translated into English as Thai Boxing, is the national sport of Thailand, and is a martial art with origins in the ancient (Boran) battle-field tactics of the Siamese army. Muay Thai, or Muay Boran, fights feature punches, kicks, elbows, knees, standing grappling, and head-butts to wear down and knock out an opponent.

Muay Thai Boran training methods develop devastat-ing power, speed, and superb cardiovascular endurance, as well as fighting spirit. MuayThai Boran South Africa se-lects a team to attend the World Championships in Thailand each year through a series of eight tournaments that culmi-nate in a selection final at the Ambassador’s Cup, supported by the Royal Thai Embassy.

This year’s team collectively brought home a gold medal, three silver medals, and a bronze medal.

There is an exciting new incen-tive for runners taking part in the Spar Women’s 10km Challenge races this year.

The winner of the annual Spar Grand Prix will receive the keys to a brand new, just released car.

For the past five years, the top runners have competed for Grand Prix points, with the overall win-ner pocketing a hefty cash prize. This year she will receive a Nis-san Micra Visia 1.2.

The runner-up will receive R30 000 and the third-placed athlete R15 000.

There are cash prizes for the top ten runners in the open cat-egory and for the top three in the four age categories.

Runners earn Grand Prix points according to their positions in the five challenge races, which are held in Cape Town, Nelson Mandela Bay, Durban, Pretoria and Johannesburg.

The top 20 runners in each race earn Grand Prix points, with the winner receiving 20 and the 20th placed runner one point. An age category runner earns points by finishing in the top five in her age group, with the overall age group winners taking home R3 000.

Runners can also earn bonus points by finishing the race in a faster time than the winning time in the particular race in the previ-ous year.

Daar loop nie ’n meer suk-sesvolle en geliefde judo sensei in Suid-Afrika rond nie, maar Pretorius bly nederig oor al sy prestasies.

hul sport beïnvloed word, maar Pretorius maak dit vinnig af as bog. Hy getuig maklik oor sy eie Christenskap.

New assistant coach appointed

Malibongwe Maketa is the new assistant coach of the Nashua Titans.

The Easterns Titans franchise, named Malibongwe Maketa as the new assistant coach as from 1 May.

“Mali brings a wonderful work ethic to the Nashua Titans team. He is a terrific mentor of young men and an excellent young coach who pushes his players to be the best they can be,” said Elise Lom-bard, CEO of the Easterns Titans franchise.

“I am delighted that Mali agreed to be the Nashua Titans as-sistant coach. After an exhaustive search he was the standout candi-date and I am looking forward to working with him in future. Mali

brings a wealth of experience to the post and I am sure we will learn a lot from each other in the coming months and seasons. He has a great way with the players and he will help them develop to reach their maximum potential,” said Matthew Maynard, coach of the Nashua Titans.

Previously Maketa was part of the winning Nashua Titans team.

He came to the Nashua Titans as an assistant along with former coach Richard Pybus, in the 2006/07 seasons, where they enjoyed a successful partnership, winning five trophies in the two-year period.

Prior to that, he was a pro-fessional coach at the Western Province Preparatory School for a year.

Maketa was appointed the Northerns Provincial amateur coach in May 2008. Under his guidance, the Northerns amateur team won the CSA one-day chal-lenge and T20 trophies.

He has also been a part of the national academy as assistant coach for the past two seasons.

He travelled as assistant to Corrie van Zyl during the recent South African tour to Sri Lanka.

the South African flag during the presentation of his gold medal at this year’s World Champion-ships in Bangkok.

The road to becoming the new World Champion is his personal story of heart, determi-nation and focus, and a ‘never-give-up’ attitude.

Drikus started learning the martial art of Muay Thai at the age of 14 at Tiger Dragon Fight Gym in Newlands, Pretoria.

He was quick to learn, but his age and size made it difficult to

find suitably matched opponents. Due to his determination to

progress, he tested his skills against bigger and stronger boys and men, and shrugged off his early defeats with his mind fixed on bigger goals.

At 16, Drikus was selected for his first World Champion-ships as a member of the Muay Thai Boran South Africa (MSA) team.

He found himself measured against the strongest Muay Thai nations in the world.

The referee raises the hand of the winner, Drikus Schutte from SA, at the Muay Thai World Championships in Thailand.

inderdaad nie net praatjies nie.Pretorius glo dat judo een van

die beste sportsoorte is om deel-nemers en kinders in besonder, se lewens drasties te verander.

Veral kinders wat sukkel met selfvertroue of wat uit ’n ongeba-lanseerde agtergrond kom, lê hom na aan die hart.

Hy vertel dat daar niks lekker-der is as om so ’n kind te sien groei as sportman én as mens nie.

Dié 74-jarige judofanatikus se eie verhaal is egter net so merk-waardig.

Hy het tien jaar gelede reeds vir sy sesde dan gegradeer en hy word regoor die wêreld gerekenas een van die sport se mees invloedryke kenners.

Sy pad het dié sport reeds in 1952 gekruis toe hy nog ’n tiener was. As jong sportman verteen-woordig hy die ou Oos-Trans-vaal en in 1960 begin hy ook as skeidsregter optree.

In dié hoedanigheid het hy ook al internasionale erkenning gekry.

Sedert 1969 tree hy al by inter-nasionale byeenkomste op en hy is steeds geakkrediteerd as skeidsregter by die Internasionale Judo Federasie (IJF).

Dit is egter as afrigter wat Pretorius soveel sukses behaal

het dat die judo-gemeenskap van Suid-Afrika inderdaad al vir hom ’n standbeeld kan bou.

Hy het byna 40 jaar gelede uit sy werk as ambagsman bedank, ’n judosaal langs sy huis in Kilner-park in Pretoria aangebou en vol-tyds begin afrig.

Sedertdien het hy nog verskeie ander klubs help stig en die lys van beroemde judokas wat deur hom afgerig is, is eenvoudig te lank om op te noem.

Meer as 15 000 judokas het sy pad as leerlinge gekruis sedert hy in 1964 begin afrig het.

Sy leerlinge het al wêreld-wyd presteer en 79 judokas het hul nasionale kleure onder sy afrigting ontvang. Hy het ook al ’n wêreldkampioen en verskeie medaljewenners op wêreldkam-pioenskappe opgelewer.

Pretorius het egter geen planne om nou al aan aftree te begin dink nie. Hy wil met sy werk aanhou tot hy letterlik nie meer kan nie.

Hy is nog fiks en gesond en oefen daagliks nie net in sy gim-nasium nie, maar ook deur fiets te ry en te swem.

Pretorius is nog so sterk en gesond dat twee inbrekers onlangs hul moses teëgekom het toe hy hulle in sy huis verras het.

2011 overall winning time in the relevant age category of the cor-responding race in 2012 will score five time incentive points.

“We are so excited about the way interest in the Grand Prix has grown every year,” said Spar Group marketing executive, Mike Prentice.

Die jaarlikse interprovinsiale o.21-vrouehokkietoernooi is ver-lede week in die Tshwane Univer-siteit van Tegnologie (TUT) se stadion gehou.

Twaalf spanne van regoor die hele land het in Pretoria saamgetrek vir dié belangrike toernooi, waar

die land se beste jong hokkietalent in aksie was. Plaaslike ondersteu-ners het die voorreg gehad om twee plaaslike spanne te ondersteun, want die Northerns B-span het saam met die Northerns Blues deel-geneem. Hierdie feit onderstreep die krag van plaaslike vrouehokkie.

Op dag vyf was die Northerns Blues nog een van die sterk aan-

spraakmakers om in die eindrondtevan die toernooi te speel.

Na afloop van hierdie toer-nooi sal ’n nasionale oefengroep aangewys word. Uit hierdie groep sal die nasionale o.21-span gekies word vir Oktobermaand se belang-rike Afrika-kwalifiseringstoernooi vir die junior wêreldbekertoernooi wat volgende jaar plaasvind.

’n Jong rekenmeester van Groenkloof in Pretoria het ervare diepsee hengelaars by ’n onlangse hengelkompetisie in Richardsbaai op hul neuse laat kyk.

Hy het die grootste Blou Marlyn ooit in dié baai se hawegebied met sy eerste probeerslag as roofvishengelaar uitgetrek het.

Wynand van Wyk is eintlik ’n varswa-terhengelaar, maar op besoek aan Richards-

baai het hy saam met vriende op ’n boot uitgevaar om aan die bekende Bonanza-diepseespesie-hengelkompetisie deel te neem.

Van Wyk het sowat twee ure met die bie-lie-Marlyn aan sy lyn geworstel wat sowat 40km van die strand af sy aas gevat het.

Die reuse vis het uiteindelik 290kg in-geweeg.

Volgens Van Wyk tel sy vangs onder die top 20 swaarste Marlyne wat ooit langs die Suid-Afrikaanse kus uitgetrek is.

Tukkies se o.9 krieketspan het skoonskip gemaak in die 2011/2012 o.9 Platinum Krieketliga.

Die span het al 13 van sy ligawed-stryde gewen. In die proses het hulle meer as 1 700 lopies aangeteken in 13 wedstryde. As daar in ag geneem word dat hierdie jong spelers maar nog net nege jaar oud is, maak dit hulle prestasie eers merkwaardig.

Die beste kolwer in Tukkies se span was Kian Heuer. Hy het die seisoen af-gesluit met ’n totaal van 272 lopies teen ’n merkwaardige gemiddeld van 90,7.

Een van sy vele vyftigtalle het hy van net 18 balle gemoker.

Die beste bouler was Jandre Verster wat 13 paaltjies platgetrek het met ’n gemiddeld van 6,4.

Die veelsydigste speler in hierdie ta-lentvolle span was Hanno du Preez wat 208 lopies in die seisoen gemoker het, terwyl hy ook 10 paaltjies ingeoes het.

In totaal het die spannetjie sewe vyf-tigtalle aangeteken. Hierdie statistiek wys hoekom dié span so uitgeblink het.

Die bestuurder van die span, Jacques Verster, het gesê die suksesresep agter sy span se prestasie was dat hy glo aan ’n rotasiestelsel.

Dit beteken dat hy ’n groot groep spelers die kans gee om hul staal te wys, terwyl hul almal geleentheid kry om te ontwikkel.

Verster het gesê sy spannetjie het 12 veelsydige spelers wat almal kan kolf, boul en natuurlik baie goed veld-werk kan doen.
