The last Beetle

ISUZU MU-X READY WHEN YOU ARE

erman automaker Volkswagen has announced that it will no longer produce the classic Volkswagen Beetle. The company has said that it would end production of the iconic car in 2019, following a pair of final editions of the insect-inspired vehicles. The chief executive of Volkswagen Group, Hinrich Woebcken said the move to axe the model comes as the brand begins to switch its focus to electric cars and larger family-friendly vehicles. In a statement he said: ‘The loss of the Beetle after three generations, over nearly seven decades, will evoke a host of emotions from the Beetle’s many devoted fans’. He also added that while there are no immediate plans to replace the Beetle, that he could ‘never say never’. Even though the iconic car was first designed in the 1930s, mass production didn’t take place until 1945. The original idea for the Beetle was

that it would be a ‘people’s car’, and would be affordable enough for people who didn’t come from substantial wealth. The idea of the Beetle was conceived in 1931, when Ferdinand Porsche and Zundapp developed the Porsche Type 12, or ‘Auto fur Jedermann’ (translated as ‘Car for Everyone’. In 1933 Adolf Hitler commissioned Porsche to develop a ‘Peoples Car’, with the specifics that the car would be able to seat two adults and two children, with room for their luggage, and be able to cruise at around 100km/h. Fast forward to the 1960s and Volkswagen started to bring significant changes to the model, including changes to the bodyshell. From 1975 through until 1978, when the Beetle production line was finally closed, the car stayed virtually the same, save for a few colour options which had been introduced on the new Golf model. In 1996 Mexico became the last country to produce the old style Beetle.

imon Johnson climbs out of the camouflaged Ranger Raptor with the red Alice Springs dust swirling behind him. Removing his racing helmet, the Vehicle Dynamics Lead has a grin from ear to ear…. “Wow. People are going to be able to buy this?” Johnson and his team had just come off the back of a Desert Endurance Test – 1600 km at full race speed on tracks where the Ford engineers had deliberately sought out whoops, jumps and chatter bumps to push the then-secret Ranger Raptor to its limits. One of the very first to experience the Ranger Raptor’s ride, Johnson understood early on that Ford had created a whole new class of off-road vehicle. “I’ve pushed the Ranger Raptor far harder than any customer is likely to push, and I’ve been absolutely stunned by how capable this vehicle is.” It’s the combination of technology and high-performance off-road design that allows the Ranger Raptor to deliver unmatched driving dynamics, and if the Bi-Turbo diesel engine and 10-speed transmission are Ranger Raptor’s heart, the all-new chassis and suspension are its soul. With huge ventilated disk brakes and a red centre marker on the steering wheel to ensure the driver knows which way the 285/70R17 BF Goodrich tyres are pointing, the Ranger Raptor is primed to deliver the driving experience of a lifetime. Loading a performance truck with this much cutting-edge suspension and technology has massive benefits for everyday driving. Damien Ross, Simon Johnson and the other Ford insiders who drove the first prototypes soon dubbed it ‘the magic carpet ride.’

Road trip with style R

ecently local motoring enthusiast Ron Winchester presented a very fascinating booklet to the Vintage Car Club. It’s an interesting account written by Henry Schnelle of a trip made by himself, his wife, their three “half grown” daughters and his father from Taumutu (near the outlet of Lake Ellesmere) to Timaru. The trip was made in September 1913, and they journeyed in their 1910 Studebaker. Back then the Schnelle and Winchester families were neighbours. Obviously a wordsmith, Henry Schnelle writes in a delightful manner, using quite interesting turns of phrase. He prefaces his story by saying under favourable circumstances a motor trip to Timaru would prove a pleasant and interesting outing, but under adverse conditions at least some of the sunshine may be taken out of such a run. They departed Lakeside around noon on Saturday and were soon off the old beaten track and speeding up through Killinchy. Dunsandel was reached in a short space of time and a left hand turn made onto the Great South Road (now SH1). The party reached the north side of the then flooded Rakaia River to see the gates closed in front of them because a goods train was crossing the then combined road rail bridge. The delay was lengthened because of a communication problem between the gatekeepers at each of the bridge caused because their “talking machines” (telephones) were not operating properly. Finally the bridge was crossed and the party were able to speed towards Ashburton, where a picnic stop was made what Henry describes as our beautiful and well-kept domain. The road south of Ashburton was unknown to our intrepid travellers, who were directed to follow Maronan Road to get to the Rangitata Bridge (at Arundel) which was reached in good time. Henry Schnelle describes the country between the Hinds River and Rangitata

as bleak, even going as far as to suggest it may be inferior to Siberia. They were relieved to find the Rangitata Bridge was vehicle only and they crossed upon arrival but soon after sought some directions to Temuka which proved incorrect and they literally ended up on the wrong track. “The road appeared long and lonely not a soul to be seen only here and there some trees broke the monotony”. Worse still the group realised they were heading inland rather towards the coast and any guideposts were poor. Things got worse! The weather changed and they ended up stuck in a stream, which in fact turned out to be the Orari River. Henry had to wade the current and walk to get help while his family stayed in the Studebaker. However it’s an ill wind that doesn’t blow some good and they were towed out by Mr Tripp of Orari Station, who provided hospitality and correct directions. Thankfully the motor was not drowned but some essential supplies like carbide – for lights – and matches were either wet or on their way out to sea. Progress to the next stop – Geraldine – was slow but without mishap. By then it was dark and they were down to one light. Friendly locals in Geraldine helped and supplies were replenished. The travellers heeded a warning not to proceed to Temuka in the dark, especially because of a notorious creek along the way. Deciding they’d seen enough creeks for one day they stayed overnight in Geraldine. “On the following morning we were early astir, in fact I believe we were the first to rise in the whole of Geraldine”. The weather was better and after a

Donation ‘huge help’ for Cancer Support

heels Week, our own local unique celebration of all things wheelie, is an event which always gives a lot and that giving continued last weekend when Originals Club members made a donation to the Child Cancer Foundation. The donation was the proceeds of a Motorcycle Show and Shine staged by Originals members during Wheels Week.

Accepting the donation (right) on behalf of the Child Cancer Support Group, volunteer Anna Raukawa said gifts like this are a huge help because they enable her group to provide activities for families coping with illness. Originals member Gerald McKenzie says the club is pleased to be able to offer support. In November Originals members will be staging a major bike show in Ashburton.

quick look around they were back on the road again, recording that they were glad to have waited until morning because in the daylight they were able to enjoy the “simply beautiful countryside” which “when whirled along present an air of prosperity”. After getting to Temuka a “splendid little town” the group ventured further south to visit friends. After a pleasant time there they proceeded to and stayed in Timaru. The return journey undertaken the next day proved less eventful but tyre troubles overtook them between Hinds and Rangitata, which saw the tyre being taken off six times. Tired of roadside repairs, they stuffed the tyre with tussock which got them to Ashburton where “satisfactory repairs were affected.” From Ashburton a non-stop run got them home, “none the worse but considerably wiser” after the motor trip to Timaru. At the time the Schnelles made the trip their 1910 Studebaker had 2000 miles “to its credit”.

The family replaced the car in 1917 with an Overland. By that time they had moved from Taumutu to Lakeside. The account of this epic trip which took place 105 years ago this month is testament to the incredible pioneering spirit of our early motorists. It’s also a reminder of how things – roads, bridges, cars and of course our countryside – have changed. Wouldn’t all those changes amaze Henry Schnelle, if he could experience them in this day and age. And by giving the booklet to the Vintage car Club, Ron Winchester has helped ensure motoring history is preserved. Originally of German origin the Schnelle family name has been anglicised to Snell and made famous by a family member – Sir Peter Snell. While many of the place names mentioned in Henry Schnelle’s account of his family’s 1913 Taumutu to Timaru trip are still familiar, one is less so. Henry refers to the coast line in this part of the country as Ninety Mile Beach – the name it was known by in those times.

Exclusive as it gets

lready renowned for the individuality of its products, Maserati has taken exclusivity to a new level with the 2018 Maserati Quattroporte GTS GranSport Nerissimo Edition – there are just 50 worldwide and only one is coming to New Zealand. And, if you are in any doubt – the rarity of the Nerissimo Edition is certified by the plaque on the centre console that states “Nerissimo Edition One of 50” and which is sitting atop some of the carbon fibre which is liberally spread inside and out across this car that is special, even by Maserati standards. The Maserati Quattroporte GranSport

GTS Nerissimo Edition embodies the excitement of urban night and enhances the aesthetic sportiness of the Quattroporte. Luxuriant Nero Ribelle paint combines with black piano finishing on the front grille, inserts on bumpers and rear extractor to create a truly unique statement. Also getting clothed in black are the window surrounds, exhaust pipes and vertical grille bars. The vehicle also features front and rear sport bumpers, body-color side skirts, 21-inch glossy black Titano wheels, anodised red painted brake callipers and an exterior carbon package that extends from the front splitter, through the door mirrors and door handles, b-pillar trim to the rear splitter.

The interior of the car features 12-way power sport seats, full premium black leather upholstery with red stitching as well as the red embroidered trident on the headrests, gearshift paddles and door sills, a sport carbon steering wheel, carbon trim and an Alcantara headliner. Comfort is completed by four-way split ventilation with a full set of controls for the rear passengers. The Maserati Quattroporte GranSport GTS Nerissimo Edition is powered by the flagship 3.8-litre V8 engine that is the perfect representation of Maserati’s performance tradition. The engine produces 390 kW (530 hp) of power at 6800 rpm and 650 Nm of

turbo-power K

torque from 2000 rpm to 4000 rpm. This maximum normal torque figure offers an over-boost feature of 710 Nm from 2250 rpm to 3500 rpm during acceleration. These engine figures help the Quattroporte to reach 100 kmh in just 4.7 seconds, making it the fastest accelerating fourdoor car in Maserati’s history and another record held by the Quattroporte is its top speed, well above the 300 kmh barrier at 310 kmh and second only to the mighty MC12 with a V12 engine. The unique Maserati Quattroporte GranSport GTS Nerissimo Edition is priced at a recommended retail price of $315,860 plus dealer costs and delivery.

ia has turbocharged its latest addition to the Rio hatchback with the introduction of a sporty GT Line model. Featuring a 1.0-litre T-GDi (Turbocharged Gasoline Direct injection) engine and dualclutch 7-speed transmission, the new top-of-the-range Rio GT Line is all set to deliver lively performance and fun motoring. The responsive powertrain is matched with engaging handling characteristics thanks to its lightweight, enhanced by a sports styling package that sets the Rio GT Line apart from the rest of the Rio range. But it’s what is under the bonnet that will interest many buyers of the new Rio GT Line. In place of the standard 1.4 litre petrol engine is a lightweight, compact threecylinder 1.0-litre T-GDi petrol engine. This engine provides the Rio GT Line 88kW (118hp) at 6000rpm, with the 171Nm of torque available from 1500 to 4000 rpm for maximum flexibility in all driving conditions. Paired with Kia’s 7-speed dual-clutch transmission which adds to the sportier driving experience and reduced fuel consumption. The Rio GT Line is now on sale in New Zealand at a recommended $28,990 plus on-road costs.

There’s nothing compares to

BATHURST

he Ford Performance GT will make its track debut on Australian soil at Mount Panorama, Bathurst, showcasing Ford Performance innovation and engineering in one of the most advanced race cars it has ever built. Driven by full-time Ford Chip Ganassi Racing driver, Ryan Briscoe, the Le Manswinning Ford GT will turn its first wheel in anger at the world-famous 6.213 kilometre circuit as a prelude to this year’s Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000. “We’re excited to have the opportunity to put this amazing race car on such an iconic circuit,” said Ford Australian and New Zealand President and CEO, Kay Hart. “Innovation through design and engineering drives Ford Performance, and where better than Bathurst to introduce the Ford Performance GT to Australians.” The Ford Performance GT race car is the culmination of years of Ford innovation in aerodynamics, lightweight carbonfibre construction and ultra-efficient EcoBoost engines, and serves as a test bed for new technologies and advanced lightweight materials that will benefit future Ford cars, trucks, SUVs and electric vehicles. With its carbonfibre teardrop-shaped body climbing the Mountain, it will be the most capable vehicle wearing a Ford badge to ever lap Mount Panorama. “To have such an iconic vehicle in the Ford GT here – a car with strong success in some of the world’s greatest races – is something Australian fans will love, and

it shows how highly regarded Bathurst is globally, and by Ford and Ford Performance,” said Supercars CEO, Sean Seamer. The Ford GT’s simultaneous road and race-car development centred around three primary goals. At its core, the program provides a working training ground for Ford’s engineers to develop future engine technology and to expand their understanding of aerodynamics. On top of this, the challenge pushed the

occasion, and intends to take full advantage of a once-in-a-generation opportunity. “The Ford GT is an ultra-high-performance car, so I’m really excited and honoured to turn the Ford GT’s first laps at Bathurst” said Ryan Briscoe, who last raced in Australia’s premier motor race in 2013. “For me, Bathurst is one of the best, if not the best racing circuit in the world.” The challenging mountain layout will

boundaries of advanced material usage, which has resulted in its teardrop body shape with carbonfibre buttresses, not possible if made of steel. The Ford Performance IMSA GT Number 67 will be freighted to Australia for the first time, and will see Briscoe behind the wheel as part of the Ford Performance presence at this year’s Great Race. “To have Ryan, an Aussie who has driven with us many times at Bathurst, Sandown and on the Gold Coast, is the icing on the cake.” Briscoe is well aware of this momentous

be another to add to the Ford GT’s list of iconic race tracks, which so far this season has seen Briscoe and co-driver Richard Westbrook finish as three-time winners following victories in Canada, Road America and the 2018 Rolex 24-hour at Daytona to build their championship campaign. “Nothing quite compares to Bathurst,” said the Ford Chip Ganassi Racing pilot this week. “Bathurst as a circuit demands the highest respect at all times. “It has the intensity of a circuit like Indy,

where its very high speed and you just always need to be 100-percent focused,” he said. “Of all the circuits we race on, Bathurst is probably closest to Watkins Glen (New York), though, as they both have a very smooth, high-grip surface with a lot of high-speed corners.” Mount Panorama will provide an even greater challenge than ‘The Glen’, as it’s known, with the steepest corner at the Australian track being The Cutting, with its 1-in-6 grade climb. “Watkins Glen doesn’t have near the elevation change that Mount Panorama has,” said Briscoe. “And while the downhill section of Bathurst is comparable to Laguna Seca, Laguna is a very low-grip track, so it’s different in that way. In 2016, the GT made history with its triumphant debut at the Le Mans 24 hour, by claiming victory 50 years on from the Ford’s crushing 1-2-3 formation finish for the Ford GT40 in the 1966 race. In doing so, it achieved the primary goal of the Ford GT’s program. Fittingly, Ford’s superb legacy at Mount Panorama goes back to the event’s origins in the 1960s, and since then, Fords have claimed victory at Bathurst 19 times. In 2019, Ford Performance will support the Ford Mustang’s entry into the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship, which kicks off in March at the Adelaide 500. The Ford Performance GT will be in action during the Supercars Supercheap Auto Bathurst 1000, held over October 3-6, 2018.

A personal statement

oyota has enhanced the daring styling of the C-HR compact SUV with the availability of a two-tone paint scheme on a new Limited variant. “Fashion is all about choice, colours, and attracting more customers with different personalities,” said Mr Lala. “The C-HR is a funky fashion accessory to personalise to your own taste and personality.” “Personalisation is a heritage of iconic Japanese cars, and C-HR is following in that tradition.” The two-tone paint option features a black roof, rear spoiler, A-pillars and exterior mirrors and is available with five of the eight body colours the C-HR comes in. The five choices are black with Crystal Pearl, Shadow Platinum, Ruby, Sun Fusion or the newly added Nebula Blue. “The C-HR adds more spice with the addition of the new Limited variant and the two-tone paint,” said Mr Lala. Toyota’s New Global Architecture chassis has allowed Toyota’s designers more styling freedom, leading to visually distinctive designs like the C-HR said Mr Lala. “The two-tone colours, combined

with the sweeping lines of the C-HR provides customers with a real statement on the road.” The Limited variant, available in both front-wheel and all-wheel drive, doubles the number of C-HR variants. Apart from the optional two-tone paint, the C-HR Limited has a leather accented interior, heated front seats, powered lumbar adjustment of the driver’s seat, smart key entry and push button start, and distinctive cabin trim and illumination. The C-HR Limited is powered by a 1.2 litre turbocharged petrol engine with a continuously variable transmission that offers the best of both worlds – economy and performance. All C-HR variants come with 18-inch alloy wheels, dual zone climate air conditioning, rain sensing wipers, blind spot monitor with rear cross traffic alert, satellite navigation with SUNA* traffic channel, front and rear parking sensors and seven airbags as part of the comprehensive specification. The Toyota Safety Sense package includes a Pre-Crash Safety system with Autonomous Emergency Braking, Automatic High Beam, Lane Departure Alert, and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.
