    Like any purchase of this magnitude, it can be hard to know exactly what to look for. Some people come to it knowing exactly what they want. However, that is not most people, only a few. Most people might have a general idea, but no more than that. If that sounds like you, then you probably find that buying a new car can be difficult. Don’t worry, though – it doesn’t have to be a drawn out process. Buying a car can be quite a simple matter, provided that you approach it in the right way. When you are buying your next car, bear the following in mind and all should be fine. Here is what to think about when you are on the market for a new car.


    What Do You Need?
    It might sound like a basic question, but it is well worth considering before you do anything else. Knowing exactly what you need before you set out stops you from spending too much time wandering aimlessly. To figure out exactly what you need can be a real difficulty, however. To answer that question, you really need to look at your lifestyle and what you need to get from your new car. Do you need something simple and small to go to the shops with? Or are you looking for an affordable off-roader like a ford raptor to explore various terrains with? Whatever you decide that you need, it is important that you are clear on it before you go looking. Otherwise, you will waste your time – and, possibly, your money.


    What Is Your Budget?
    Once you know what kind of vehicle you are looking for, this is the next most important question. Knowing your budget is vital for a successful vehicle-shopping mission. Without a clear idea of what kind of money you have to spend, you are likely to put yourself in some serious trouble. Avoid that at all costs by planning your budget well beforehand. When you are thinking about your budget, remember to take future costs into account as well. The last thing you want to do is make the mistake of thinking that the financial obligation ends with the upfront cost of the vehicle. Remember: there are costs further down the line which you need to think about.

    Features
    Now it is time to consider what features you would like in your new car. This is ultimately a matter of taste; however, there are some which are more important than others. Whether or not you want certain features will depend massively on your lifestyle and what you actually need your car for. Still, it is – again – worth thinking about beforehand. Otherwise, you run the risk of getting the wrong vehicle entirely. The more you plan what you want to get, the better the results will be overall.

    Looks
    Let’s not pretend that looks aren’t important. When you are buying a new car, you obviously want to go for something which looks the part. With that in mind, pay attention to how you feel about different aesthetic choices. You never know: it might be how a vehicle looks which makes or breaks your decision.

    • The BMW i4 M50 is quite possibly the best EV we have had the pleasure of testing.

It's superbly comfortable but at the simple touch of a button, it switches from tourer to tornado and you find yourself instantly doing speeds you should not be doing.

While not all EVs will have the same refinement or scintillating performance, this was both relaxing and thrilling to drive.

The Gran Coupé is a handsome car with a sense of sleek length and disguises its hatchback as a booted saloon rear end and that M Portimao Blue metallic paint certainly garnered a lot of positive attention.

Compared with the BMW iX it’s less of a show-stopper, but comes with a much more attractive price tag – and while the i4 is still quite the financial investment (R1,6m) we feel it gives you excellent value in return.

Yes, we did have a few charging issues (Eskom) and if you don't have a Wallbox charger at home filling up with petrol is MUCH easier. However, that being said if you’re looking for an outstanding driving experience both on the twisties and on the highway, this is definitely worth considering if you have decided to make the jump to the electric car.

    • The totally bonkers Ferrari 812 Competizione was spotted in Bryanston today by Brad Ainge.

It actually makes the F12tdf look quite tame in comparison. Which would you rather have?

Priced around R14m depending on spec.

    • Our time has come to an end with the most potent version of Mzansi’s favourite bakkie, the new Toyota Hilux GR-Sport.

The 2.8-litre turbo diesel powerplant has been tweaked to push out 165kW and 550 Nm thanks to an updated ECU which also responsible for the much needed revised mapping of the six-speed auto.

The sporty Hilux gets new monotube shocks as well as stiffer coil springs which make the bakkie a lot more settled at higher speed and provide great feedback on some of the twisty bits. If you don’t have a full load at the back however, you might find it a tad too stiff and rather twitchy for day to day driving. 

Inside you get a load of sporty touches including “carbon fibre” trim pieces but the highlight has to be the race inspired front seats complete with Alcantara inserts and some GR badging on the headrests. 

For the Hilux customers, this is a welcome addition to the range as the exterior and interior aesthetics align very neatly with the GR brand.

Yours from R891,400. Are you picking this or the Legend RS?
