Poisonous airovertown

A heavy cloud of smoke has yet again been hanging over Lydenburg the past few weeks.Reports have been investigated that the landfill site is overflowing and that rubbish is piling up beside the road towards the official town dumping site. This has however not been the biggest problem. Because someone at the dumping site is setting the rubbish dump on fire at night, probably trying to make more room for the increasing refuge and waste in town. This amount of rubbish also increases with the amount of residents. The cloud of smoke resulting from this lays heavily over Lydenburg in the evening and residents can testify that small black particles are all over their yards and houses in the morning. There is a definite poison threat from the gaseous releases with

the burning of the landfill site. In severe circumstances it can contribute to lung diseases and asthma. Section 24 of the South African constitution states that everyone has the right "to an environment that is not harmful to their health and well-being". People must live in a clean environment so that they can stay healthy.With the threat of poison in the air and municipality that does not have the support of the community behind them at the moment, yet another problem arose this week when Kellysville and other residential areas in Lydenburg have been without water for almost a week. Apparently a burst pipe is the reason for this.

An example of the smoke over Lydenburg.

DIE huis van mnr Hannes Blom by die Tuscan Villas in McGee straat (op die punt van Van Staden weg bokant die Laerskool) is Sondagaand verwoes toe ’n reuse waterpyp van sowat 300mm onder groot druk gebars het. Die pyplyn, wat skynbaar water na onder andere Mashishing moet

Net na sesuur Sondagaand het Sandra en Herman Blom ‘n slag gehoor en toe die bruis van water. Hul dogter het gebad en hul seun was in die TV-kamer by hulle. Eers het hulle gedink dis die geyser wat gebars het. Strome water het uit hul seun se kamer gekom. Die hele vloer was onmiddellik enkelhoogte en later knie hoogte in bruin massas water toe. By latere ondersoek het dit

geblyk dat ’n 300mm waterpyp onder deur hul huis loop (wat hulle elf jaar in bly) en dat daar nie lug uit die pyp gelaat is nie en dat die drukking opgebou het. Tot en met hede kon niemand nog die laaste stelling bevestig nie. Die Uitvoerende Burgemeester

Rdl. Michael Nconywane en die Tegniese Departement van Thaba Chweu het die perseel besoek. Blom het die meenthuis destyds by ’n maatskappy gekoop wat intussen hulle deure toegemaak het. ~ Reinet Bell

neem, het met soveel geweld gebars dat een van die kamers in die huis se vloer sowat ’n halwe meter gelig is. ’n Gedeelte van die Tuscan Villas is bo-oor hierdie lyn gebou. Mure is gekraak en grond en modder het plek-plek sowat ’n meter diep in die huis gelê. Buitemure is omgestoot en die waterlyn

was plek-plek meer as ’n meter hoog sigbaar. Verskeie bure se huise het ook groot skade opgedoen.Die verslae Blom familie sê dit het gevoel of ’n aardbewing die huis getref het. Inwoners van huise tot 100 meter van die insident af, het die vibrasie in die grond gevoel.

Hierdie insident kom te midde van grootskaalse infrastruktuur ineenstorting in Lydenburg. In Brownstraat lyk dit asof ’n tornado die plek getref het, soos waterpype gebars en die stadsraad met ’n TLB pype opgegrawe en toegestoot het. Geen opruimingswerk is gedoen nie en die straat lyk soos ’n ramptoneel.Intussen is Mashishing na wat berig word al vir meer as ’n week sonder water en sekere dele al vir meer as drie weke.In d ie bodorp van Lydenburg i s wateronderbrekings aan die orde van die dag.Mashishing se 16 Junie jeugdagvieringe moes op die dag afgestel word, omdat daar nie krag was nie. Dié vieringe is toe op 6 Julie by die stadion gehou, sonder water.Die ineenstorting van die waternetwerk volg kort op die gereelde wateronderbrekings. Wanneer hulle dan die water weer oopmaak, word die pype nie korrek ontlug nie en bars dit. Addisionele reservoirs teen die berg verhoog ook die druk in die pyplyne.Dit is baie duidelik dat die infrastruktuur-probleme in Lydenburg die kapasiteit en vermoë van die Thaba Chweu stadsraad geheel en al oorweldig het. Bo en behalwe hulle gebrek aan kundigheid en mannekrag, het die Raad nie geld nie en skuld hulle Eskom meer as R115 miljoen.Die dorp se strate stort in duie en die munisipale stortingsterrein se bestuur is heeltemaal versaak. Rioolvuil stroom nou al vir jare op plekke soos Pretoriusstraat, naby die brug na Mashishing, Jocks Country Stalls, die rugbyveld en die Jansen / Lombaardstraat pomphuis in die strate en rivier in.Die gebrek aan kundigheid, geld en die massiewe uitbreiding van die dorp sonder behoorlike beplanning en inspeksies, (hoe kan ’n woonhuis bo-oor ’n hoofwater-pypleiding gebou word?) het die dorp nou skynbaar finaal geknak.Andre Coetzee.

‘n Brand het vandeesweek by Precrete in die Versekeringsforum Sentrum ontstaan. Gelukkig is die vlamme gou geblus en kon

die brand nie verder versprei na die res van die sentrum se huurders se persele

nie.

Vlamme geblusvoor groter skade

MUNISIPALE kragheffings het talle besighede in Lydenburg in rep en roer en baie warm onder die kraag.Talle besigheidseienaars wat voorafbetaalde meters het, moes laasweek tot hulle ontsteltenis uitvind dat hulle reuse heffings

Heffings op elektrisiteit maak sake-manne warm onder die kraag

moet betaal, alvorens hulle hulle eenhede krag kan koop. Hierdie aspek is nie deur die Thaba Chweu m u n i s i p a l i t e i t a a n d i e m e n s e gekommunikeer nie, en is nie in die Highlands Panorama bekend gemaak of

geadverteer nie.Aldus die munisipaliteit betaal elke besigheid wat ’n kragrekening ontvang, ’n heffing, wat op die rekening verskyn. Hierdie heffings wissel van R650 tot R 1850. Dit is ook nie bekend waarom daar verskille is nie. Hulle

het egter nagelaat om die heffing in te stel op besighede met voorafbetaalde kragmeters en stel dit glo nou reg.Sakemense is egter erg ontsteld en beskou die aksie as onwettig. Baie klein besighede het reeds om hulle kontantvloei beter te bestuur, na voorafbetaalde meters oorgeskakel. Die argument is dat voorafbetaalde meters die totale administratiewe las van die gewone rekeningstelsel van die munisipaliteit wegneem, wat hulle baie geld bespaar en dat voorafbetaalde meters se krag vooraf kontant aangekoop word, wat die nodigheid van heffings uitskakel. Dit was destyds skynbaar so deur die munisipaliteit onderneem en gepromofeer.In hierdie swak ekonomiese tye vind baie besighede dit uiters moeilik om kop bo water te hou en kan hierdie ondemokratiese optrede deur die munisipaliteit tot groot skade lei. Baie besighede sal deure toemaak en ander sal onwettig hulle meters laat omseil, wat kan lei tot ’n kleiner inkomstepoel vir Thaba Chweu.Die beginsel van insentiewe om die inkomstepoel te verbeter en te vergroot word skynbaar nie deur Thaba Chweu verstaan nie en hulle metodes werk dus teenproduktief op hulleself in.Intussen is ’n dokument rondgestuur wat reël dat ’n grootskaalse optog vir vandag (Donderdag 11 Julie) beplan is en vyf dinge word ge-eis:1. Die bedankings van die Burgemeester, Munisipale Bestuurder en Hoof Tegniese Dienste.2. Die begroting moet herroep en hersien word.3. Die heffing op elektrisiteit vir besighede moet geskrap word.4. Die Burgermeesterskomitee moet mee weggedoen word.Die kantoor van die Premier van Mpumalanga moet met die gemeenskap vergader en die infrastruktuur probleme oplos.Die optog begin 09:00 by die Mashishing saal en Skhila, beweeg dan dorp toe en vergader om 11:00 by die kantore van Thaba Chweu. Inwoners word versoek om hulle eenheid met hierdie aksie te betoon en aan te sluit by hierdie byeenkoms.Andre Coetzee.

OLD GRUMPYDifferences

WE live in a society comprised of peoples of different origins, language, culture, religion, politics and so on. Here in South Africa, we have vastly different perspectives on government, democracy, chieftainship, forefathers, marriage and the upbringing of children. It is far more complicated than East meets West. Sure, we have conservative European culture, conservative African culture, Communist revolutionary thinking, liberalism and the influence of the East via India, China and other nations. This dictates how we view medicine,

church, politics and community. It defines who we are. We have 11 official languages, plus a myriad of others not even listed. We cannot wish those differences away. They will always be there. It is ingrained and genetically programmed in us. It will become more complicated still. Trying to undo it is an exercise in futility. However, we have one national South African border, most of us were born here and many others traveled here for a better life. These facts are given and we must find a way to co-exist. Creating little homelands and enclaves for like-thinking groups is simply unpractical and can not work if we want to prosper. We do trade with each other and we have friends across the above mentioned divides. Having English friends does not make me a traitor to my own people. So how do we make this work?This is the Holy Grail for politicians, as they all purport to have the answer. And they never get it

right. In my opinion we are looking for answers in the wrong places.To exist as diverse communities we need to look at the simple things. What do we actually share? What do we want? Things like good health, a better life and education for our children, religious beliefs (although they may differ, we mostly believe in Deity), doing business with each other, a stable and peaceful community, a clean environment, respect and the list goes on. And those my friends, are the keys to a prosperous future. To harmony. You do not need to forsake your upbringing, culture and God. Hold on to it, but look for something more. It really is that simple. Let us cherish and celebrate our own cultures, but let us concentrate on a change in attitude. Let us talk about and engage each other in those things that matter in our day to day lives. The good things. The things that we want. The positive things that we share and that communities need. You build from a foundation, and tolerance and basic human decency are key concepts in our foundation. Take small steps and we will get there!

Lukas 18:26-27 Dié wat dit gehoor het sê toe: “Maar wie kan dan gered word?” Daarop antwoord Hy: “Wat vir die mense onmoontlik is, is vir God moontlik”.Here, gee dat ons ons vertroue in U sal herstel, want self is ons tot niks in staat nie - Amen.

Salig ry ek werk toe met die mis wat d i k l ê o o r L y d e n b u r g Dinsdagoggend.Daar gaan regtig niks in my kop aan nie. Dit is daardie salige oomblik wat mens se kop leeg is. En toe sê Jakaranda dit: “Dinsdae is volgens statistiek die dag wat die meeste kapings plaasvind.”Kapings in ons ou Viljoenstraat in Lydenburg? En toe dink ek, moet ek bang wees waar ek hier oor die brug ry? Ek lag so lekker dat die ‘kapings’ my toe ontstel. Want ons leef allermins in ’n kokon in Lydenburg. Want diefstaf, moorde en huisbrake was hier al baie. Ons is definitief nie ’n klomp plaasjapies wat nie weet wat die gevare van die lewe is nie. Ek is definitief nie een nie. Maar aan die een kant is ons nog so bietjie gelukkig. Want ek dink ’n kaping op ’n Dinsdagoggend sal eerder in die stad gebeur. Nie sommer in Viljoenstraat nie. Ons tel soms nie die klein seëninge nie, maar daar is baie daarvan. Al sal ek die laaste een wees wat preek. Maar Lydenburg het nog baie goeie dinge wat ons laat uitstaan bo ander dorpe. Genoeg soveel dat ek nie maklik sal verhuis nie. Hoe sê die bekende Engelse grappie: “Got the T-shirt” So ek het al alles gedoen en gesien en ervaar. Dis eintlik lekker in Lydenburg, probleme en al. Me Tienie Nel van Lydenburg skryf:

Hiermee wil die inwoners en Me Tienie Nel net baie dankie sê vir die gemeenskap wat hulle so getrou bystaan met donasies, kruideniersware en klerasie. Daar is egter twee mense wat elke maand ons finansieel help om die wa deur die drif te trek ten opsigte van die betaling van die huur en soms die betaling van die krag. God se rykste seën aan julle. Woorde kan nie beskryf hoe dankbaar ons is nie.

Duncia Safe Haven sê dankie

Mnr. Pine Pienaar van Lydenburg skryf: Nadat daar twee vergaderings gehou was en die Stadsraad duidelik met hulle monde vol tande gestaan en seker besef het dat hulle besig is om aansien en die inwoners se laaste bietjie “vertroue” in hulle vermoë om hulle take suksesvol uit te voer, te verloor, wil dit my voorkom of die Stadsraad besluit het om 'n magsvertoning te hou. Dinsdag 18 Junie 2013 was die eerste vergadering en toe ons tuis kom, was ons krag af tot laat in die aand. Tydens 'n oproep om die oorsaak van die onderbreking te probeer vasstel, het 'n erg ongeskikte munisipale amptenaar ons meegedeel dat hulle nie vir ons krag gee nie, omrede hulle nie die krag verniet van die Hidro af kry nie. Tydens die telefoniese gesprek het hy ons meegedeel dat, (na sy mening), behoort die Hidro aan die Munisipaliteit en hulle is nie veronderstel om vir die krag te betaal nie.“n Mens kan nie help om te dink dat onbevoegdheid en onkunde hand aan hand loop in Lydenburg se Stadsraad nie. Die volgende magsvertoon was die elektrisiteitsheffing wat so pas ingestel is. Die kennisgewings was blykbaar geadverteer in die Lydenburg Nuus / Steelburger asook die Laevelder. Besighede in ons Dorp wat voorafbetaalde meters het, moet nou 'n basiese heffing van R630 per maand betaal, voordat daar nog enigsins 'n sent aan krag spandeer kan word.Wat hierdie sogenaamde agtergeblewenes nie besef nie, is dat die heffing wat op die gewone meters van toepassing is, daar gestel is vir die administrasiekoste rondom die uitstuur van rekenings, asook die koste van die meterlesers. Voorafbetaalde meters val nie onder hierdie groep nie, want daar is geen administrasiekoste aan verbonde nie en ook nie meterlesers nie.Dit wil my voorkom asof die koekblik nou leeg gevreet is, en om daarvoor te probeer vergoed, word Lydenburg se besighede verarm om die amptenare se onbekwaamheid te finansier.Dit is duidelik dat die huidige Stadsraad nie in staat is om dit suksesvol te bestuur nie!

Stadsraad houmagsvertoning

‘Lief vir bejaardes’ skryf:Terugvoer op ‘Anoniem’ se brief in die Highlands Panorama Nuus, 4 Julie 2013.Eerstens Rusoord is die enigste geregistreerde ouetehuis in Lydenburg. Kannabas en Kiepersol is munisipale woonstelle en nie ouetehuise nie. Dit is nogal verwarrend vir die gemeenskap as die woonstelle as ouetehuise voorgehou word en dit kom uit dat dit onwaar is. Rusoord kry ook nie net alles van die gemeenskap soos anoniem beweer nie, hulle loots gereeld fondinsamelings projekte soos bv. pannekoek bak ens. Indien anoniem so sterk voel oor die inwoners van die twee woonstelblokke, hoekom organiseer hy/sy nie d i e i n w o n e r s o m s o o s R u s o o r d fondsinsamelings projekte te loots soos bv. pannekoek bak ens. om daar deur te begin om hul lewe beter te maak nie.

Wat op Kannabas en Kiepersol betrekking het

Kiepersol kikker self opMe Mari Prinsloo van Lydenburg skryf: As inwoner van Kiepersol Woonstelle in Lydenburg reageer ek graag op die pleidooi van ‘Anoniem’ in 4 Julie se Highlands Panorama Nuus om hulp vir die ‘arm oumensies van Kiepersol.’Die ‘arm oumensies’ kan verseker fulkse planne maak om hul lewens op te kikker. Hulle maak tuin en kon met suksesvolle projekte o.a. self afdakkies op hul stoepe oprig. Ons waardeer al die ondersteuning wat ons van die gemeenskap, familie en vriende ontvang en gun Rusoord Outehuis die hulp wat hulle ontvang. ‘Anoniem’ het jy ‘n naam of is jy skaam?

Madiba is sterk voorbeeldMnr. Madiba is vir my een van die sterkste voorbeelde van hoe ons Hemelse Vader deur mense Werk. Alhoewel hy net 'n gewone mens is met alles wat dit behels, het God sy lewe so laat werk dat hy wonderlik Geseënd was en wonderlike Seën oor die wêreld gebring het in die harte van mense (in my hart ook) As jy mooi daaroor dink het Madiba bloot Jesus se v o o r b e e l d v a n v e r g i f n i s , l i e f d e , mededeelsaamheid en eenvoud uitgeleef. Ons prys ons Hemelse Vader vir die voorbeeld van 'n Madiba wat in ons land en in die wêreld oor ras- en kultuurgrense heen mure kon afbreek en lewens kon verander.

Abraham Christoffel Swanepoel, maar hy was bekend as Swannie.

Dr. Jakkie Swanepoel skryf: Pa het sy loopbaan in 1951 begin in Bloemfontein by die stadsraad as admin klerk. Deur die jare het hy hom deur verdere studie bekwaam en altesame by 10 stadsrade gewerk, (mens moes in daardie jare voortdurend skiet vir ander poste om bevorder te word) voordat hy afgetree het as stadsklerk van Lydenburg in 1996. Op 'n stadium was hy die mees senior lid van die Instituut van Stadsklerke. Na sy aftrede het hy nie stilgesit nie – hy het 'n ruk lank gehelp met invorderings van skoolfonds en algemene finansiële bestuur by Lydenburg Hoërskool; Hy was ook vir 'n tydperk betrokke by die Beehive. Hy het 'n uitstekende kennis en baie ervaring gehad wat betref plaaslike bestuur. Aangesien plaaslike bestuur hom tot op die einde baie na aan die hart gelê het, het hy en Lampie vd Nest destys die belastingbetalings-vereniging gestig in 'n poging om die stadsraad te help, maar ook sake te probeer regruk. Die algehele verval en wanbestuur was iets wat hy net nie kon aanvaar nie. Hy was eerlik, opreg, betroubaar met 'n sin van geregtigheid. ’n “What you see, is what you get” – persoon. Hy was ook iemand wat baie omgegee het vir sy medemens en het 'n oop hand gehad vir diegene in nood. Sy skielike heengaan op 3 Julie 2013 word betreur deur sy vrou en kinders, familie, vriende en kennisse. Ons sal hom nog baie mis

VOLGENS Isobel Janse van Rensburg, voorsitter van die KANSA Lydenburg tak, word die Relay for Life vir 'n rede deurnag aangebied.Die Relay for Life begin gewoonlik net na sonsondergang. Die lopers sien nog uit na die aand wat voorlê, hulle is gemotiveerd en vol energie, maar soos die aand verby gaan, raak hulle stiller en besef dat 12 uur se stap oorweldigend kan raak. Wanneer iemand met kanker gediagnoseer word, voel dit of hul wereld tot 'n einde gekom het, hulle sien die lang donker tyd wat voor hulle uitstrek en soms voel hulle dat hulle nie kans sien vir die stryd wat voorlê nie. Hier teen middernag, wanneer die deelnemers se voete seer geloop is, wanneer die koue hulle omvou en hul wil laat moed opgee en huis toe gaan na 'n warm bed. Het kankerlyers nie die voorreg nie. Dis wanneer pasiente deur die moeilikste fase van hul stryd deurgaan, maar hulle kan nie moed opgee en sê hulle wil nie meer kanker hê, nie. Hulle het nie 'n keuse as om elke dag terug te baklei nie.Die lekkerste is egter wanneer hulle die son

sien opkom en besef dat hulle die aand deurgemaak het. Dat hulle besef hulle kan oppak en huistoe gaan vir 'n welverdiende rus. Net so voel kankerlyers ook. Hulle sien die einde van die lang donker kankerstryd en hulle ervaar 'n verligting wanneer hulle besef hul chemo en bestralings is nou verby. Hulle het kanker oorwin.“Ons nooi almal uit om deel te neem aan die wonderlike geleentheid. Dis elkeen se kans om te wys dat hulle, al is hulle nie direk aan kanker blootgestel nie, dat hulle wel ander ondersteun.”Ons tema vir die jaar is “Olympics” en spanne kan nou begin inskryf om vroegtydig hul sport tema te kom kies. Conrad Langenegger by Longtom Cycle is weer die jaar ons RFL Team Recruiter en jul kan hom gaan besoek of kontak op 071 890 2915 en Isobel help weer met die spanne en kan ook gekontak word by 084 329 8737.Al die Survivors word ook genooi om in te skakel want die aand gaan reeds oor hul en alle belangstellendes kan vir Desire wat die RFL Survivor organiseeder is te kontak by 082 878 6797.

TEN spyte van die groot gesukkel met krag gedurende die Junie vergadering

het die VLU dames geleer hoe om skilferkors deeg te maak! Mev Bevie

Marais (foto) 'n bekende naam in spyseniering in Lydenburg, het kom demonstreer hoe lekker jou eie tuis-

gemaakte skilferkors proe in vergelyking met die klaar gemaakte gekoopte produk. Vir die volgende vergadering (10 Julie) gaan van die dames haar resep gebruik en konfyt

tertjies, 'n groot gunsteling by meeste mense, bak. Hopelik gaan hulle genoeg

maak dat ons lekker kan proe! As jy belangstel om nuwe vaardighede aan te

leer word jy hartlik uit genooi na die VLU vergaderings wat maandeliks gehou word. Tyd : 9:30 elke tweede

The winner will be announced later in July, so check back with Wheels24 to find out which bike will claim the 2013 crown.

Wheels24 readers shared their thoughts on which bike would claim the SA

Exciting BOTY competition

Tim Young: "My pick would be the

KTM 1190”

Fred de Hoog lists his top three:

1 Honda NC700X auto – best bike overall due to excellent consumption, ride height, seating/position, weight, build quality and price.

2 BMW R1200GS – still the best 2x2xfar

3 Triumph Trophy – sumptuous!

Reader Anton de Bruyn's top bike picks:

1 Honda NC700X auto - scores top marks for price, quality and 'one-bike-for-all-uses'

2 Triumph Trophy - for its motor’s character, build quality and its town-and country ability

AFTER over eight million kilometers of test drives, and an investment of €25 million in the two German van plants in Düsseldorf and Ludwigsfelde, the first new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has now rolled off the assembly line in Düsseldorf.As a result, Mercedes-Benz Vans is writing a new chapter in the Sprinter success story and once again setting benchmarks for the van sector. The new Sprinter features five new safety and assistance systems, including three van premieres. It is the first van to have engines that meet the future Euro VI emissions standard, and its incredible fuel consumption values (as low as 6.3 liters per 100 km) make it by far the best vehicle in its class when it comes to fuel efficiency. In the large vans segment, the Sprinter also impresses with its striking appearance.Nicolette Lambrechts, Brand Manager for Vans at Mercedes-Benz South Africa (MBSA) says: “We are indeed all excited in the Daimler AG network with the production of the Sprinter. There was a lot of hard work and planning globally that has now seen the assembly kick-off.”Lambrechts elaborates that new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Euro 4 and 5 engines will be launched to the South African market at the Johannesburg International Motor Show in October. “We are confident that the indomitable Sprinter will continue to cement its market leadership position in the large vans segment. It is a fantastic product that enjoys good support in the market. We are however not immediately able to launch the Euro 6 engine due to inadequate availability of cleaner fuels. ” A festive ceremony was held to mark the launch of series production at the Düsseldorf plant. At the celebration, the first new Sprinter was unveiled to numerous employees by Volker Mornhinweg, Head of Mercedes-Benz Vans among others. At the start of series production, Volker Mornhinweg said, “The new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter has once again enabled us to set the bar higher for the van sector. The new Sprinter's safety, efficiency, and quality are unmatched by any other van, and the vehicle remains a pioneer in the large van segment. The new Sprinter is the global vehicle in the commercial vehicle sector. The start of series production has really gotten the ball rolling, and I'm delighted to work together with all of you to continue the Sprinter success story.”At the ceremony, Plant Director Martin Kelterer added, “Today is a very special day for our Düsseldorf van plant. We are of course extremely happy about the new Sprinter. All of the employees at the plant worked extremely hard to make this day happen and to prepare themselves for the new production processes. This shows that we have a highly motivated and qualified team whose members are extremely committed to their work.

New Mercedes Benz Sprinter Bus and Van

Ever since the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter made its debut in 1995, the van has made a name for itself all over the world. The vehicle has always been a pioneer when it comes to assistance and safety systems. In 1995 Mercedes-Benz became the first brand to install the anti-lock braking system (ABS) into a van by introducing it into the Sprinter. Another van first, the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) , fo l lowed in 2002. Mercedes-Benz Vans achieved another pioneering feat in 2006 when it developed ESP into ADAPTIVE ESP. All of these developments have made the Sprinter a top seller. Over the past 18 years, the vehicle has posted total sales of about 2.5 million units and helped customers perform a wide variety of tasks. The Sprinter is a truly global vehicle and a key pillar of the “Vans goes global” growth strategy of Mercedes-Benz Vans.Today the pioneering van is being sold in thousands of variants in around 130 countries. In South Africa, the Sprinter enjoys a lot of support in the segments it plays in which include, taxis, ambulances and freight operations amongst many. By email

A FEW months ago Car reported on the reintroduction of the Datsun brand. Parent company Nissan has now added the rejuvenated Datsun brand to its stable as an entry-level offering.

Growth in the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa) nations has led Nissan to create (relaunch) this third brand as an offering to the growing middle class in these countries.

“Datsun will bring competitive products and services, modern and aspirational, while at the same time reassuring, providing superior value and specifically developed for the emerging and ambitious new Middle Class in high-growth markets. The Datsun cars will be locally developed with the support of Nissan Motor Company engineers and stylists and will be locally produced”, said Vincent Cobee, Head of Datsun.

A few weeks ago Car attended a number of workshops where motoring media from the target markets were given further insight to the relaunch of the brand. During their time at Nissan’s headquarters and global design centre in Yokohama Japan, they were shown designs of the very first new-generation Datsun. These were embargoed until now and CAR is one of the first media outlets in the world to bring you these images.

A full scale model will be debuted at its world premiere will take place on 15 July in New Delhi, India and the new car will go on sale early next year. Expect the new, as yet unnamed model, to be roughly the size of a Toyota Etios. Power will most likely come from a small inline four cylinder motor that will drive the front wheels.

As India is the only other right hand drive market for Datsun we can expect the same model that will be produced on the Sub-Continent to go on sale locally at the end of 2014.

The company also launched its international website www.datsun.com on July 1. Brand and product information will be available after 15 July.

SAC’s Stephen Fischer started the journey in 1983 as a one man tuning operation specialising in Alfa Romeo products. Today there are no fewer than nine Steve’s Auto Clinic (SAC) workshops around the country that specialise in cars and bakkies. SAC also has a central warehouse and five SAC truck parts outlets. Even the two-wheels are covered with the SAC Bike division that focuses mainly on Harley-Davidsons.

According to Fischer the world is a different place thirty years on and he can still remember working on cars with points and condensers. Times have moved on and so did SAC. The main reason why SAC is so successful is service delivery to their clients. To quote Fisher: “At the very top of our list of products on offer is extraordinary service. It’s a very rare product in the automotive aftermarket performance enhancement and service industry”.

OPEL Corsa OPC Nürburgring Edition on its way to SA. General Motors South Africa (GMSA) announced that the Opel Corsa OPC Nürburgring Edition will be making its South African debut this October. Available in limited numbers, the Nürburgring Edition will not only be a rare sight on local roads but as part of an international limited edition production run, the Opel Corsa OPC Nürburgring Edition is one of the most exclusive Opels ever built.

Opel's ties to the Nürburgring Nordschleife date back to the 1960s and the track is probably the most gruelling and demanding in the world. Despite that all Opel vehicles are tested at the Nürburgring before entering production, OPC variants receive extra-special fine tuning of chassis, performance and handling dynamics to ensure they perform at the top of their respective classes. Nicknamed the 'green hell' by Sir Jackie Stewart, OPC vehicles are amongst the fastest around the circuit – the previous generation Opel Astra OPC and original Zafira OPC both having achieved records in their segments at the track.

The hottest Corsa ever – and not just in the looks department is the new Opel Corsa OPC Nürburgring Edition. It features a host of visual and performance upgrades to push the envelope even further.

Visual changes include the addition of a front lip spoiler, a new rear roof-mounted spoiler, dual exhaust pipes and dark-painted 18-inch alloy wheels. The latter play host to brand-new high-performance Brembo disc brakes. Interior changes include Recaro sports seats in Nappa leather, while

Corsa OPC in limited numbers

e q u i p m e n t upgrades include r a i n - s e n s i n g wipers, automatic climate control and an upgraded audio system with U S B a n d B l u e t o o t h compatibility.

The chassis has undergone further d e v e l o p m e n t , enhanced for

better performance by Bilstein. The turbocharged 1.6-litre petrol engine has been tweaked as well, now producing a maximum of 154 kW at 5 850 rpm and 250 Nm of torque from 2 250 rpm – and as much as 280 Nm on overboost. The Corsa also features a new mechanical multi-plate limited slip differential on the front axle, to ensure the torque is translated into speed with a minimum of fuss.

The new Corsa dispatches the 0-100 km/h dash in just 6.8 seconds, running on to a top speed of 230 km/h. Performance notwithstanding, the Nürburgring Edition's ECOTEC engine still produces sound efficiency figures – its combined cycle average is just 7.6-litres per 100 km and carbon emissions are 178 g/km.

With Opel's heritage in South Africa beginning as far back as 1930, Opel is a key brand within the GMSA portfolio, the new Corsa Nürburgring Edition following hot on the heels of the brand new Opel Astra OPC which was launched earlier this year. The new Corsa boosts the product line-up as a halo model, its exclusivity set to evoke the passion and enthusiasm South Africans have for the Opel brand even further.

HINO, the only Japanese truck manufacturer to take on the challenge of the gruelling annual Dakar Rally, is involved with an accelerated performance enhancement programme for its two four-wheel drive 500-Series trucks which will take part in the 2014 event in South America. The very experienced Team Sugawara will once again be responsible for the Hino entries in the race which has seen them score numerous category wins (engines under 10-litres) while building up an amazing and unequalled record of 23 consecutive finishes.

The 2014 Dakar Rally will start in Rosario, Argentina, on January 5 and finish in Valparaiso, a Chilean resort town on January 18. The motorcycles and quads will have a two-day detour through Bolivia while the cars and trucks traverse the Andes Mountains.

Next year marks the culmination of Hino's three-year plan to get into the leading overall rankings and many changes are being made to the trucks to further improve performance. This will include more powerful engines and refined braking and suspension systems. The modifications are being carried out at Hino Engineering's factory, which specialises in customising production trucks to meet specific customer requirements.

Yoshimasa Sugawara and his second son Teruhito will again drive the team's trucks. The father, who is now 72, will be entering his 23rd Dakar Rally, while his son, who scored his fifth consecutive win in the under 10-litre category last year, will drive the team's lead truck. His father's Hino will be a virtual test bed for performance-enhancing new technologies and components not tried in previous races. The same co-drivers will be used as for the 2013 rally, namely Hiroyuki Sugiura paired with Teruhito and Katsumi Hamura with Yoshimasa, who is also the team's director.

The team will have the opportunity of testing all the latest changes when it competes in the Mongolia Rally next month. There will then be enough time for fine-tuning before the trucks are shipped to Argentina. Next year the team will also have a new support truck in the form of a Hino 700 Series ZS model which is popular on construction sites and in mining operations in countries outside Japan.

Some of the support team technicians will again be selected from Hino dealerships in Japan, which has proved a very effective motivational programme for the dealers as their technicians strive to go on this prestigious event with Hino Team Sugawara. By email

Millennial buyers are looking for homes with an integration

of technology designed to allow the homeowner to

control the home at a distance via a broadband connection.

There is no doubt that today's Generation Y home buyer are not like their older counterparts, says Adrian Goslett, chief executive officer of RE/MAX of Southern Africa.He explains that in today's market, Generation Y buyers or those under the age of 30 are tech savvy and always on the go, and so when it comes to buying a home, they have different expectations and wants when compared to older buyers in the market.These millennial buyers are often at different life stages to their predecessors with many still unmarried and without children and this changes their needs and what they are looking for in a property he points out.Green featuresHomes with energy-saving eco features such as solar panels and gas appliances are high on the list of essentials for today's younger buyers, who are looking to reduce their carbon footprint, while saving on utility costs.Ready to move inGoslett says that while many of the older generation buyers may have been looking for a well-priced, fixer-upper property that they could renovate themselves, Generation Y buyers prefer homes that have already been renovated.

What Generation Y home buyers want

While in the past this was reserved for the more affluent home buyers, advancement in technology and devices that use Wi-Fi or other wireless connections has made this home feature increasingly more accessible.“With the right installations, homeowners can control aspects of their home through applications on their smart phones or tablets.”These are the kind of things that younger buyers have in mind when searching for their ideal

home, says Goslett.“Each generation makes buying decisions based on the trends and technology that is available to them, and the current generation has the world's cutting-edge technology at their fingertips.”Even though many of the younger generation buyers do not have a family right now, they are still looking for properties with an extra bedroom or space that they can customise to suit lifestyle changes.While Generation Y buyers want an extra bedroom or flexible space,

t h a t d o e s n ' t necessarily mean they want bigger homes.A c c o r d i n g t o Goslett, homes with s m a l l e r l i v i n g s p a c e s h a v e become popular because they are m u c h m o r e manageable for younger buyers and more efficient.www.property24.co

Different yet Tougher Route. Now in its 30th year, the Bestmed Jock Cycle Classique, to be held in the beautiful Mpumalanga Lowveld on 20 July 2013 can be compared to the Comrades Marathon in that it is a true test of skill, strength and endurance. The three stage, 151 km Bestmed Jock Cycle Classique is the biggest and toughest winter road event in the country and attracts over 1 300 riders annually.According to Wynand de Villiers, the Bestmed Jock Cycle Classique organiser, the 43km first stage will start from the Mbombela Stadium near Nelspruit at 06:30 and involves 20km of hard pedalling on gradients of between two and six per cent. “Riders’ pedal power will be tested at the extremely challenging Heidel Eggs climb, which is two kilometres long. It may be shorter than Hilltop but it's more or less the same ascent,” says de Villiers.De Villiers also states that, even though the route is different this year, the thrill of the race is still the same. “Any person who completes this race can be proud of their achievement. There will be no Boulders this year, but the nature of the riding terrain in the Lowveld is such that no cycling event is going to be easy; the road either goes up or down. So this year's Jock will be as tough, if not tougher than previous years,” adds de Villiers.Among the participants this year will be the Bestmed professional riders and their social teams. Team Bestmed comprises riders that range in age from 20 to 68 from a variety of occupational backgrounds, proving that almost anyone can ride. The full team will be participating in this year's Bestmed Jock Cycle Classique and each of the riders is looking forward to the challenges that the race has to offer. “Bestmed's professional team's leader – An-Li Kachelhoffer, has done extremely well this year. She won the Bestmed Tour de Boland race earlier this year and we trust that she will give her all in this race to show women that this sport is for everyone. We wish all our riders luck and encourage the nation to be active, safe, nutri-wise and ultimately happy”Race Details:The 43km first stage starts from the Mbombela Stadium near Nelspruit at 06:30.At 09:00, the 45km second stage begins when the riders head out in

he Winterveld Rugby Club, better known as the Buffels, hosted a well-organized rugby day and live entertainment at the Winterveld Recreational's club rugby field and open hall. T

The day's events started with the Ohrigstad rugby club facing Dendron in a league game. The Dendron club proved to be the better team and won 15-3. Shortly afterwards, the Buffels faced Louis Thrichardt in their league game but also were weighed and found too light! The Buffels lost 25-0 against the opposing club. Although it was a devastating day for our home clubs, the rugby was of a good standard and fairly managed by the referee appointed by the Blue Bull Rugby Union in Polokwane. They would like to thank all the supporters and the Tubatse Mobile Medical unit, who supported them and share interest in their club's well-being. After the rugby, everyone moved over to the Winterveld Valley feast hall next to the field, where they were entertained for the remainder of the evening by Die Broers all the way from Cape Town and Jaco Labusgachne from Pta. Willem Montgomery was their Master of Ceremonies and everybody there, enjoyed themselves thoroughly. Mr Charl van der Merwe would like to thank each and every person who contributed to the evening's success and to all the support! It makes them happy to know that their local community still has so much interest in club rugby. Charl would like to thank the following businesses and individuals for their sponsors and contributions towards this day's events. Khumula Lodge, Winterveld Club Management, Precrete, Platchro Mining Services, Mopane Bottle store, Macsteel Steelpoort, 2YK, Mega Paints, Pick n Pay in Steelpoort, OK Grocer in Burgersfort, Vallei Glas, AFM Church and to the Platinum Gazette for the exposure and advertising of this event. And then last, but not at all the least, Eastern Chrome Mines for their major contribution towards the day's expenses. ECM, “Thank you for maintaining the field, thank you for the use of the hall and especially, thank you to Mariska Stickling for her assistance. I

would then like to thank the team of H i g h l a n d s Vo l k s w a g e n i n Lydenburg for the water bottles and caps we received from them and also to Jacob from S u p a Q u i c k i n Steelpoort for the new togbags” said Charl. No matter how small t h e s p o n s o r o r c o n t r i b u t i o n , i t motivates the players and enables the Rugby club's Management to reward the team for their sacrifice for the love of the game!
