Connie Chiume, a South African icon, was born in Welkom, South Africa to a Malawian father and a South African mother. Who would dare question her identity, her contribution, or her right to represent us with her beautiful body of work?

This unit is dressed in Oryx White Pearlescent, with the optional 21” Estoril Alloy Wheels.
Starting price is set at R999 900.
Currently one of my favourite performance SUVs. 👌🏽
Got to drive this car over the weekend, and VW e tlo betha ke batho.
The interior is underwhelming and lacks everything.
The exterior is the only redeeming quality, but it's not enough to justify the price tag.
Having lived with the 7 R for a number of years and now driving the 7.5 R, I can confidently say that the pre-facelift is a more fun and responsive car.

M235i. A stunner of note in my opinion.
In the barrel is 225kw and 450nm with alleged 0-100km/h in 4.9s.
Makes a perfect balance of a daily drive and some sporty feel.
With the 3 new updates from Mercedes being complete now, I think the E-Class is by far my favourite looker.
Which one does it for you between the C-Class, E-Class & S-Class?
Do you guys think we have what it takes to defeat

Manufacturers are seemingly focusing more on this lighting and they are overdoing it. I’m actually against this approach of a full touch infotainment system. Takes away driver focus.
The value in a new performance car is the warranty not really the performance because you can almost always find a quicker old car. But the security of the warranty old great value.
Going into the weekend testing out the
@Jaguar
F-Pace Plug-In Hybrid. With electric power and a 2.0L turbo engine, you’re getting 297kW and 640Nm, and wild fuel consumption figure of 2.2L/100km - I’ll be the judge of that! Stay tuned.
What a stunning looking SUV 🥵

Can’t drive 100 on a 60 zone and want to blame visibility.
Can’t further blame visibility, then subsequently mention excitement and adrenaline. Contradictions.
Why do you guys do this thing on the road/highway where when there’s an accident on the other side, you drive slow and create unnecessary traffic which opens up immediately after the accident scene. Le rata ditaba and you’re delaying all of us 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️

PR departments of manufacturers need to get this and not see it as an attack.
The aim of the review is to help people make informed decisions on their purchases.
As an automotive journalist/someone who reviews cars, give people both sides to the car. You can’t just be focusing on the positives whilst there are also shortcomings. Do proper and detailed reviews.
I will never stop sharing my skepticism about the build quality of these Chinese brands, all of them.
But hey, low pricing has people rushing in. More are still going to cry.
People who have found their purpose in life are really having the greatest of fun. They have their shit figured out and everything is just aligning. It looks really fun.
One of my favourite things on the 7.5 is adjusting the engine sound to race and leaving everything normal on Individual Mode.
That heavy growl when I lift my foot off the accelerator? Magical 😮💨🥹
