    Spring is often a much-needed reprieve from the oppressiveness of winter. With the promise of sun, newborn animals flocking about, and green leaves, spring is certainly something to look forward to. Yet with all the joy that spring brings forth, there are still some lingering winter effects that can continue to take toll on our vehicles, even after the majority of snow has been cleared from the road. What is worse is we have let our guards down as the sun is shining, and are often unprepared for the unexpected side effects that warmer weather will bring. To ready ourselves for the oncoming months, we should prepare our vehicles for more than just April’s showers, to ensure that our vehicle will perform throughout whatever this new Spring may bring with it.

    When winter unloads a barrage of snow, one of the only tools our town has to battle it is salt. Though salt certainly melts snow and makes for a safer drive, the damage it does to our vehicles can be potentially irreversible. Salt leads to rust, and if we do not make an effort to wash it off, the damage could lead to the destruction of your vehicle. As such, take your time and give your vehicle a good cleaning, especially the underbody as that where most of the damage is seen. Remember to wait for a nice sunny day when the temperature is comfortable, to prevent a cracked windshield. In addition, all you have to use is water to clean your vehicle. Simply using water will make a huge difference to the cleanliness and has the ability to cut through the grime; neither soap nor specialty cleaners are.

    Another step to take is to make sure to also open the hood and clean out any debris that may have found their way in there. Whether it is dirt, or perhaps fallen leaves leftover from the autumn, it is important to clean as much as possible. Replenish your windshield wiper fluids, as spring is quite a dirty time of year with all the mud, and your windshield is likely to take a beating simply while driving. Likewise, replace your windshield wipers. Depending on the severity of the winter you have previously had, windshield wipers can take quite a beating. Opt for good quality blades, as spring will certainly provide dirty windshields and has the potential to bring with it a fair amount of rain.

    Though spring signals a much-needed break from the harshness of winter, do not underestimate its own ability to cause problems. As such, taking little steps will ensure that both you and your vehicle can enjoy the welcomed changes that the warmer months will bring.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
