    Make Your Car More Resilient On the Road with This Advice

    If you want to avoid a breakdown or a crash on the road, you need to prepare your car. No car is indestructible. There are many things that can go wrong, and you have to be prepared to adapt your car. Luckily for you, there are plenty of things you can do to make your car that little bit more resilient than it currently is.


    Never Miss a Service
    If you miss one of your car’s scheduled services, your car will suffer in the long-term. So, make sure that you don’t do this. It’s easy to put these things off when you have a busy lifestyle. It can often seem like getting your car serviced isn’t important. But if you don’t, problems will fester, linger and grow. In the end, this will lead to your vehicle becoming less resilient on the road. And that’s exactly what you don’t want to happen, so get your car serviced.


    Pay Attention to Suspension
    Your vehicle’s suspension will play a big part in how resilient it is. You will have to spend some money if you want to improve the quality of your car’s suspension. But it could be worth it. When you have strong suspension in place, shocks will be absorbed, and they won’t cause further problems. Your car will be active and functional for much longer if you have good shock absorbers in place.

    Drive with Skill
    The way in which you drive your car is very important too. If you take the wrong kind of approach to driving, you will be more likely to sustain bumps and scrapes. That’s not what you want to happen because each of those small incidents will weaken your vehicle over time. In the end, these small problems will add up and cause pretty big problems for your car. So, take an advanced driving course and improve your skills. That way, you’ll avoid ever having to make an insurance claim.


    Prepare Your Car for the Terrain
    What kind of terrain are you going to be driving on? And what kind of weather conditions will your car have to deal with? These are the kinds of questions that you will have to find answers to if you are going to make your car more resilient. For the winter, you should adapt your car. Do things like adding winter tyres. And you should do the same if you are going to drive your car in an off-road environment as well.

    Learn to Spot Problems Early
    If you use your senses effectively, you should be able to detect problems with your car before they become larger. It’s not a case of becoming an expert mechanic and doing all that work for yourself. Instead, it’s more about listening for rattling noises in the engine or spotting leaks. These things are obvious signs that something is wrong with your car. By spotting them early, you can stop them from causing your car to slowly deteriorate. Use every one of your senses to detect these issues.

    • 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.
