Durban North to BALLITO

EVERYONE IS READING

from the Editor

T

his week we launched something new from the Life & Style team designed to add more to your Brand Ballito experience. If you are among the growing number of people who have discovered Ballito’s own radio station and are enjoying the mix of music and info we offer you every day you may have wondered about the studio and what the presenters and their regular studio guests look like too.

Well, now you can see it all in high definition as we offer you a technological first from Radio Life & Style.

We have just imported a super piece of kit that allows us to link high definition cameras and audio to our digital radio stream. This means that we can show you what’s happening live in the studio via our Facebook Live platform and you can watch it all on your computer, tablet or smartphone.

We are in the trial stage now but, going forward, you will be able to see things that you have regularly heard about on Radio Life & Style – the creative things…the food and drink specials presented by the experts, and all of the other interesting and unusual studio guests like puppies, kittens and other creatures, the beautiful people, the wierdos, the celebrities and everything else that makes up a day in the life of Radio Life & Style every day.

It effectively turns the radio studio into a small television studio and with digital communication rapidly becoming the most important medium on the spectrum, we are now taking Ballito into the digital age across the planet.

It’s interesting to see where our listeners are joining us from. As our FM signal allows us a limited reach - from Ballito to Zinkwazi in the North and Umhlanga in the South, to listen to us further afield, most listeners are now downloading our apps from the Play

Store or App Store and listening to us from wherever they choose.

We have a surprisingly large digital listenership in the Durban Metro area.

Listeners from Gauteng and many other inland locations are enjoying a touch of coastal fresh air by tuning in to our stream too.

What is even more surprising is how many people are listening to us internationally. People who have emigrated from Ballito or have holidayed here or have an interest in this part of the world are tuning in regularly to stay in touch.

And we are working on something even more exciting and innovative that will soon change the game in the local communications industry. While I can’t make the announcement yet as we are not quite ready to launch, I can tell you that we are all very excited about the future and look forward to inviting you to join us to experience it.

So, watch this space – and keep listening to Radio Life & Style online or on 88.0FM for news about this imminent development. We think you’re going to enjoy it!

Welcome to another edition of Life & Style, building Brand Ballito and sharing the lifestyle that we love.

How to SELL your House in a Depressed Market

3

Harcourts Dolphin Coast 032 946 2331 dolphincoast@harcourts.co.za

Property is our business. People our passion.

IDA DU PLOOY HARCOURTS DOLPHIN COAST

“It’s tough out there....” This is the sentiment amongst many South Africans today.

T

IMES have changed and unlike a few years ago, it is not easy to sell a home in today's depressed real estate market. Selling your home can be a tense, emotional process, but it doesn’t have to be. Selling your house can be relatively painless if you’re prepared and know what to expect. Selling your home in a depressed market vs. selling in a “sellers market” features much of the same advice, however, since selling in a depressed market usually means the prices are lower and more competitive.

If you are not in a position to stay in your home and "wait out the storm", you must be prepared to go beyond the usual to sell your home. Times spent researching market conditions are invaluable at present. It also helps to avoid putting any barriers in the way of potential buyers. Below are some tips to keep in mind when pricing your home to sell.

1. Establish the True Reason why you want to sell, in other words, how strong is your motivation to sell your property today. Many different elements can combine to create unrealistic expectations. Often Sellers are uninformed and have an over optimistic opinion of the property market or their home, the cost of the improvements they hope to recover, or the final amount to realise their future plans.”Testing the market” in a depressed market can be a fatal and costly mistake.

2. Do the Research: Visit open houses in your area to get a feel for pricing and to see how other people are presenting their homes. You need to think like a buyer to sell in a down market.

3. Make it Nice: Buyers will see your home for what it is. Make sure everything is in good working condition and try to make it look clean and clear of “clutter”. Think as if your home is on a first date and it needs to make a good first impression.

4. Hire the Best Real Estate Agent: ( Harcourts Dolphin Coast agents voted The Best of the Best 2016 ) In a down market you need to have the best real estate agent you can find. Typically you want someone who is qualified and has been in the business a long time. Interview several agents and ask them to present you with a detailed marketing plan. This is not the time to have a “friend of a friend” handling your home sale!

Your agent will present you with a detailed Comparative Market Analysis, comparing not only recent property sales similar to your property, but also showing you the homes your property will be competing with. Awarding a Sole Mandate make your listing the ‘Cream of the Crop” whilst listing with all agencies your property becomes

everyone’s listing, but not one’s responsibility.

5. The Harcourts Promise: Harcourts Dolphin Coast is commitment to help our sellers by providing them with our written exclusive service plan. Our Promise will be to provide you with: ·A detailed written marketing plan ·Post-inspection feedback at all times ·Written progress reports ·Marketing review meetings ·All offers presented in writing 6. Price it Right: While buyers may still look at your house if the price is too high, they will pass on to the next house. Taking your CMA (Comparative Market Analysis) into consideration and visiting other homes on the market in your area, price your home below your neighbourhood’s most recent comparable prices. In a down market it makes no sense to price your home at the same price your neighbour is asking. You don’t want your house to remain on the market for a long time while you continually lower the price. Research clearly shows that properties sell quickest the closest to the asking price, within the first few weeks, if it has been priced correctly or just below the market value. So price it right the first time. Get Harcourts Dolphin Coast experienced and qualified area specialist to work in partnership with you to change your property from: FOR SALE to SOLD. The price of your home must be right.

Too low and you lose money.

Too high and you lose buyers.

Just right and it is SOLD. Here’s where the intimate local market knowledge and expertise of the Harcourts Dolphin Coast’s consultant comes in. Call us today to help you price the house right and to sell it fast by using our advanced technologies, marketing expertise and experience.

032 946 2331 Harcourts Dolphin Coast offers an OPPORTUNITY for experienced agents looking to achieve the NEXT LEVEL in their careers by becoming part of a global organisation with the most advanced technology, marketing tools and an award winning Academy .

Ashton College News - From the Astroturf Joe Erasmus – CEO Ashton College

A

fter months and months of preparation, the Ashton Astro, Phase 2 of the development of the Sports Campus is 99% complete.

With only a little bit of landscaping, the installation of the nets and final touches to the paving, the excitement amongst the hockey players is tangible. Our students will now have the opportunity to train on their own Astro and this will certainly add a new dimension to the match readiness of the players.

But the success of Ashton sport does not stop here. It has been an amazing week as our students achieved outstanding results on various platforms. We have to congratulate 15 year old Amy Naudé who, this weekend, broke two records at the Athletics meeting held in Pietermaritzburg. She broke Justine Palframan’s 400m record set in 2008 by almost a second. In addition she broke the 200m record which has been standing since 1976.

In the biggest and most prestigious Inter-Schools 5-a-side Soccer event in South Africa, hosted

by UMBRO and Energade, Ashton’s 1st Team Girls clinched the hotly contested U19 category.

The girls won five pool matches beating Port Shepstone on penalties in the semi-finals, beating St Mary’s in the final to clinch overall honours. On the golf course, 14 year old Senayah Moodliar finished 3rd in the Junior Africa Challenge after three rounds at San Lameer and then participated in the Renasa Champ of Champs 2017 at the Kloof Country Club and won the best nett.

These are all phenomenal results following the recent Sports and Cultural Awards ceremony where no fewer than 36 Senior College students and 12 Junior College students were awarded full colours for Provincial representation in various sports codes.

On the Academic side our matric students are writing their trials, and I would like to take this opportunity to wish Left to right: Reinette Franck – Head of Girls Hockey, Joe Erasmus all the matric students on (Managing Director), Jenny van Buuren (Senior College Head); the Dolphin Coast every André Buys (CEO); Gary Schneider (Junior College Head of Sport) success in these important examinations.

PALM LAKES ESTATE –

An Epic Success Story Dave Charles

W

HEN I first visited Palm Lakes Estate over ten years ago, it was nothing more than a sugar plantation with an impressive entrance and a few roads into the cane. I must admit that I thought the project ambitious in the extreme and I wondered whether it would ever get off the ground. When the bottom fell out of the property market in the global recession that followed the launch of the estate I was certain the project would collapse but I was wrong.

Over the years that followed the global economic crisis, Palm Lakes Estate continued to grow at a steady pace and the investment returns have been spectacular. Now, those that took the plunge and invested in property on the estate are safe in the knowledge that they have done the right thing and many others are now looking at doing the same.

Wim Sak & Mayor Gumede

Beauty Simanga & Wim Sak

To celebrate their 1000th transfer, Palm Lakes Estate held a wonderful family fun day at their Numz Adventure Island and Driving Range last Sunday. There was great live music, excellent catering and an overall happy atmosphere that is so characteristic of this popular estate.

And the Estate continues to expand, producing excellent investment returns and a wonderful lifestyle for those lucky enough to be associated with it. There are plans for a very exciting equestrian offering in the mix for the very near future and this will definitely be a proposition to look at.

Jaime Ernst, Coleen Naidoo & Cathy Grant

Olivia Roels Sak & Daisy Govender

Palm Lakes Family estate has an exciting investment proposition for you. In just ten years land prices on the estate have yielded a value increase of 330 % and sectional title has yielded a 127% increase.

With over 1000 transfers since 2007, Palm Lakes has shown incredible growth and the good news is that land, homes, retirement homes and development sites are still available with no transfer duties.

Palm Lakes is just 23 km from King Shaka International Airport, 13 km from Ballito and 3km from the beach.

Visit www.palmlakes.co.za for more info on how you can enjoy a slice of the good life at Palm Lakes Family Estate.

We wish the Palm Lakes team continued success – they have been regular advertisers on our print and radio platforms and we are sure that the association will continue to produce results.

I EVERYONE,

BELINDA BOLTE 1-2-1 PERSONAL PUPPY AND DOG TRAINING

O your research to find the right dog for you and your family.

In our last two editions we looked at how Dogs are divided by KUSA into the following groups: Gundogs, Hounds, Herders, Toys, Terriers, Working dogs, and Utility. I have added on an 8th Group Rescue Dogs.

This edition we look at Working Dogs, Utility and Rescue Dogs.

Working Dogs: Boerboel, Boxer, Bullmastiff, Dobermann, German Shepard, Great Dane, Newfoundland and Rottweiler Working dogs are exactly that – dogs that need a job. Working dogs were bred to guard livestock, herd sheep, drive cattle or carry or pull equipment in arduous conditions. They need plenty of opportunities to work off their abundant energy levels.

While many of these large, powerful breeds are still used in their working capacity today, they are equally suited to life as devoted family companions and many of the breeds in this group excel as watchdogs and the family protector.

Working dogs are intelligent but they do need a firm consistent hand during training.

They excel in the Dog Obedience Training ring and a few breeds do brilliantly in the dog dancing ring.

Utility Group: Dalmatian, Boston Terrier, Bulldog, Chow, French Bulldog, Japanese Spitz, Schnauzer and Poodle.

This group is also known as the magic mix of dogs who do not fit comfortably into other groups. It is a broad combination of big and small as well as short and long coats. Majority of this group are companion dogs today, however many have at some stage of the breeds development been classified as working dogs.

If you choose a dog from this group be prepared to do your homework on a specific breed, so that you can find the right dog for you and your family.

Rescue Dogs: A surprise combination of different groups and breeds.

Taking on a rescue puppy or dog can be a challenge; some have special medical needs initially, but most just have the need for safe happy human interaction and love. Remember, dogs are social creatures by nature and they want to be with their family pack no matter if it consists of other dogs or humans.

Taking on a rescue puppy can be quite a surprise as we have seen at puppy classes where guessing the lineage of the rescue pup has been fascinating.

Last year we had two rescue sibling puppies at puppy school and the owners were told that they were probably a Jack Russel crossbreed.

Well, over their puppy course, we saw legs getting longer and longer and then we saw fox terrier and pointer in the sibling pups named Nandi and Baloo. Both dogs are teenagers now and doing Teenage Obedience classes - living the best life a dog could ever dream of.

We have two awesome local rescue organisations: Sables Creatures and Puppy SOS are always in need of help financially and in many other areas. Check out their Facebook Pages for further information. .

Tip for the week:

Traveling with your dog in the car I recommend they be placed on the back seat and parked. A deployed airbag can cause serious injury to your dog, or they may be thrown against the windscreen in an accident. There are a number of tools on the market that can secure your dog and ensure a safe journey.

We’ve made it through a fairly mild winter to the best time of year. SPRING! Arguably the shortest season of the year, but the season that has many of us hell bent on cleaning out the winter cobwebs – and perhaps, throwing out those old mattresses! If you’re in the market for a new set (bed and mattress) think no further than the Kings and Queens of a good night’s sleep – Cloud Nine and Rest Assured, who you can find at the following retailers around the North Coast: Bed Boyz, Hirsch’s and Sleep King. All of them have fantastic spring specials on their beds, so pop down to one of those stores this week to find the bed of your dreams!

We’ve had quite a few repairs and maintenance queries lately, and it’s clear that the consumer needs to convey exactly what they need to have sorted out in the way of repairs, and relay this clearly to the supplier.

YOU’RE RIGHT TO REQUEST PRE-AUTHORISATION FOR REPAIRS OR MAINTENANCE SERVICES • Consumers have the right to request written cost estimates/quotations from suppliers, prior to the suppliers executing any repairs or maintenance services.

• Suppliers are not permitted to charge consumers for drawing up any cost estimates/ quotations.

• Consumers have the right to preauthorise or refuse any additional repairs or maintenance services.

• Consumers are not liable to pay for repairs or maintenance services done without their prior approval.

• Suppliers are not permitted to charge consumers for any diagnostic work/ inspections required in compiling cost estimates/quotations unless there was prior agreement.

Because it’s spring, here are some great tidying tips from world famous de-clutterer, Marie Kondo, the Japanese lady with the knack of streamlining one’s home.

Marie says “The key to successful tidying is tackling your home in the correct order. Keep only what you WANT AND LOVE. Effective tidying involves only two things, discarding must come first – then decide where to store what you are keeping.

MAKE TIDYING A SPECIAL EVENT. It should be a once in a lifetime task, and you will be able to enjoy a clean and uncluttered space of your choosing. Once you have put your house in order, tidying will be reduced to the very simple task of putting things back where they below and this will become an unconscious habit.

Take time to sit down and examine each item you own and then decide whether you want to discard or keep it.

Don’t carry around the negative image of being an UNTIDY PERSON. Once you have experienced the powerful impact of perfectly ordered space, you will never return to clutter.

Please keep those queries coming through!

Contact me on gjthomo@gmail.com Remember that if you have any complicated queries – especially those bordering on the legal side – go straight to the Consumer Council – KZN Consumer Complaints Hotline number: 0800 333

BIG BRANDS LAUNCH AT BALLITO LIFESTYLE CENTRE

T

HURSDAY, 24 August saw the culmination of months of planning and construction, as three new big box offerings opened their doors at Ballito’s Lifestyle Centre. Dis-Chem (1 700m2), Sportsman’s Warehouse (1 400m2) and ToyZone (850m2) launched as planned to the delight of local shoppers and Centre Management alike. “These three big brands are closely aligned to our vision of providing everyday convenience and simplicity of shopping, and celebrating family and life the Ballito way,” said Lifestyle Centre co-owner, Bruce Rencken.

ToyZone had shoppers queuing outside their doors to take advantage of their opening specials. Hair 4 U and Scarla May shared in the excitement with the launch of their larger, lovelier stores in new positions close to DisChem and ToyZone.

The centre also reopened their covered parking and revealed the new high level roof covering and newly laid non-slip tiling. A staircase and two lifts will service this area of the centre. Rencken confirmed that “The lifts will be operational in early September”.

As the centre starts to fulfil its promise of providing a differentiated

offering for the discerning Ballito shopper, the focus of Centre Management will now turn to completing the remaining components. The Eat Street area, which will offer fine dining in a family-friendly, street-scene environment, will soon be the home of Mythos, Lupa, Salsa, Catch and Mo’s Noodles, who will join the existing Beira Alta and Zaras, along with Imbizo Art, Cape Union Mart and Trappers, all of which have remained trading during the disruption.

The Market promises artisanal, fresh food from a variety of local vendors, including Homegrown Organic Produce, Yoli’s Bakery, Taylor’s Meats, Robson’s Brewery, The Juice Kitchen, Scoop Ice Cream, Science of Coffee, The Bavarian Butchery and Delicatessen, We Are Food, Cumin & Coriander, and Olive-A-Twist, amongst others. Baby City is also set to join the ranks by the end of October 2017.

“We want Lifestyle Centre to be the local, authentic and convenient shopping experience, focused on food, family and well-being,” said Rencken.

IN THE GARDEN WITH PAM

Spring PAM JACOB - DRIEFONTEIN GARDEN CENTRE

T

HAT spring has sprung is beyond doubt. The frogs are frogging; the birds are birding and all sorts of creatures are doing what creatures do at this time of the year. And the humans are gardening, which is what we really enjoy. We can talk ‘til we turn to stone, trying to persuade folk that you can garden ALL YEAR ROUND at the coast, but our animal instinct seems to be greater than our commonsense, so we rush out in Spring to play catch-up with what we should have been doing all Winter long. The Nursery is ablaze with colour from seedlings to shrubs and trees; Indigenous and Exotic; all strategically placed to try and tempt you to the limit, so a little bit of advice. Before you visit the Nursery to spend your hard earned cash, make a list of what you need and try not to deviate from this.

Remember the virtue of cell phone photos to bring along with you so that we are all on the same page, as it were,

and can then give good, sound advice.

Staking is of huge importance with the mighty winds we experience in September. Stakes should be strong and firm with nylon stockings, cut into strips, being the ideal method of tying to a stake. Whatever you use, please ensure that there is sufficient `give’ and the tie must not cut into the bark of the plant, be it a tree, shrub or climber.

Personally, I am quite pleased that the rains are a little late, which might auger well for more rain during the summer months. I’m of the opinion that when the rains are early, as they were in 2015 and 2016, we seem to get less rain during the summer months. We shall just have to wait and see.

Get to know your garden. Dry areas; wet areas; badly drained areas etc. and bring this information along when you are making your purchases. If you need a complete make-over, do a section at a time.

Plants bought willy-nilly to be dotted here and there, seldom come together well. Decide on the style of garden you want. `Wild’ is making a comeback.

What suits the design of your home? What suits

your pocket and what suits the time you have available.

If you are limited with what you can use in the garden, then make your patio your point of interest with pots planted with annuals and perennials and sweetly scented shrubs. The time is almost upon us when we will be eating al fresco, so prepare for the good times ahead.

And if you don’t have a garden, then pop along to the Nursery to simply get close to Nature and lift your soul. We all could do with a dose of that, couldn’t we?

A LIFESTYLE

ELUGA, a place where work never feels like work because we love what we do! For us, Beluga is so much more than just a restaurant; it is a lifestyle which creates a fun, happy and sexy atmosphere! Our goal is to always better our previous day’s service. We aim for perfection and strive to exceed every expectation. This large chic chain restaurant offers pan-global haute cuisine as well as amazing dim sum and sushi dishes.

Beluga Restaurant started trading in 1999 to immediate acclaim by being voted one of the Top 60 restaurants in the world. In 2006 we decided it was time to reinvent Beluga, and over the next few years we made many significant changes. We added sushi to our new menu, which we expanded and began redeveloping approximately three times a year. As time passed, we were more than happy to increase our seating from 120 seats to 400 seats. We are truly grateful for our regular guests and followers, without whom we would never have grown to where we are today.

Since its re-launch in 2006, Beluga has grown into one of South Africa’s most loved restaurants. We believe the secret to our success lies in never becoming complacent about our menu or service. We strive to constantly improve and refresh our sushi, dim sum, and seafood along with our Ala Carte offerings as well as to increase our wine, cocktail and bar selections.

We have a Beluga branch in Gateway and at the new Ballito Junction Mall, where we have a Pearl Bar which specializes in sushi as well as Beluga Pan Asia which features tepanyaki dishes. We have a much loved special, which runs throughout the year from 11am to 7pm. This is our half price sushi, cocktails and Dim Sum. Our bestsellers are our Bam-Bam rolls, the amazing Tuna Crunch, the Show Stopper which features a mouthwatering beef fillet, bone marrow, truffle mash along with a rosemary jus, confit baby onions and tomato finished with roasted garlic. These are to name a few. We also offer various other menus such as the two-course lunch menu, three-course menu, our Ala Carte menu as well as a variety of set menus.

Our group Executive chef, Steven Kruger, had begun his culinary journey at the age of 18. He worked his way up from Commis chef to Executive Head Chef by the age of 23. He accomplished all of this in just 5 years. Steve has won multi awards including the Five-star Platinum Award for Fine Dining with American Express.

Here at Beluga, we enjoy what we do. We are blessed with an amazing team. Our number 1 priority is our guests. Beluga is more than just a restaurant; it is a lifestyle, an experience, something that will enrich all who visit the restaurant.

We hope you enjoy Beluga as much as we do. www.beluga.co.za

The Quarter Spring Festival

T

he Quarter Shopping Centre celebrated the arrival of spring with a fun event for the family hosted on the premises last Friday night. The event was free to all and the atmosphere was festive with live music by The Gus Brown Band and a selection of festival food and beverage vendors plying their trade to keep people happy. Most of the tenants at the Quarter were open for the event too.

Sugar Rush Park 17th September 2017

A

S the third installment of the Marriott Ballito Beats Music Series at Sugar Rush Park in Ballito, fans will be treated to the unmistakable sounds of South Africa’s biggest rock band; The Parlotones, on Sunday the 17th of September.

The Marriott Ballito Beats Music Series has successfully brought a new level of outdoor entertainment to locals along the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal.

Growing from strength to strength, this fun-filled day out lets fans enjoy time with friends and family in the open air, savour great food and beverages, take advantage of a fully supervised kiddies zone, and of course, listen to some of the best musical talent South Africa has to offer.

Danielle Fisher from Radio Life & Style was the mistress of ceremonies and she kept things cooking with prizes, lucky draws and a happy banter with the crowd.

The Sugar Dance company surprised the proceedings with some tight choreography adding to the energy and, despite a rather cool breeze that reminded everyone that it wasn’t quite time to put away the winter outfits, the general consensus was that the Quarter Spring Festival was really cool and, if you missed it, you missed out! pics; EKO Photographic www.ekophotographic.co.za

“We’re really passionate about bringing great musical talent to the local Ballito scene; and with Double Platinum, Platinum and Gold Records under their belt, there’s no doubt that the Parlotones have something very special to offer fans,” says Ballito Beats Series Director Stu Berry. “As Impi Concept Events, we’ve worked with the Parlotones many times before, and are always excited about their performance. There’s the iconic face make up, a captivating stage presence and of course, some seriously awesome live music.

We’re really excited to be bringing this top South African act to Ballito.”

The Parlotones have recorded 8 studio albums, 1 acoustic album, 3 live albums, over 25 music videos and won a multitude of awards, both locally and internationally. The 4-man band has played live to over 2 million fans to date, and now, right here in Ballito, fans can look forward to some top-quality music from a top-quality band.

The show will take place on Sunday the 17th of September, with gates opening at 1pm. Local Durban boy F R E D D Y – L will get the crowd warmed up with his folk melodies and deep vocals. Vocalist, Freddy Lalendle was recently coached by The Parlotones lead singer Kahn Morbee on the second season of The Voice, South Africa. “We hugely admire The Parlotones and all that they’ve achieved musically,” says Lalendle. “As an artist, the time I have spent with Kahn has been invaluable and has helped me carve my path in the music industry. I performed with The Parlotones once before at this year’s Splashy Fen Music Festival, and am honoured to be sharing the stage with them again in Ballito this month.”

Authentic Italian Restaurant that serves wood fired Pizza, Pasta and Grills created with fresh ingredients like homemade hand-kneaded dough made daily, mozzarella cheese, basil and olive oil.

Authentic wood fired Pizza, Pasta and Grills created with fresh ingredients like homemade hand-kneaded dough made daily, mozzarella cheese, basil and olive oil.

THE VISION MERCEDES-

MAYBACH 6 CABRIOLET An Extravagant Superyacht For The Road With A Dinner Set Under The Bonnet

OVE IT OR LOATHE IT, THERE'S NO DENYING THAT MERCEDES' LATEST CREATION WILL TURN HEADS WHEREVER IT GOES.

alloy wheels complimented by a new sloped rear-end design that's been crafted to look like the deck of a superyacht.

Mercedes says the 740bhp electric powertrain - made up of four compact electric motors powering each wheel - can sail to 100kph in under four seconds but only has a range of 500 km.

Inside, the cabin is lathered in crystal white nappa leather, while

The four-wheeled cruise-liner concept was revealed last month at Pebble Beach as part of 2017 Monterey Car Week in California.

Measuring in at 5.7 metres long and 2.1 metres wide, you'd struggle to find a parking space to put it in, let alone a garage. And despite the immensity of it, there's still only room for just two seats.

the wooden floor is another hint to its yachting inspiration.

Interior pictures also show a minimalist dashboard that contains three air vents and a blue fibre optics wrap-around panel with the sat-nav visuals incorporated into it.

And as a final flurry of extravagance, the double-hinged bonnet opens like a pair of wings and reveals a decked storage unit

The new Vision MercedesMaybach 6 Cabriolet sports a chrome-finished grille and a set of glimmering 24-inch multi-spoke

that holds a variety of items, from dinner plates, flasks and cutlery to a pair of umbrellas and a luggage set.

It's called the Vision Mercedes-Maybach 6 Cabriolet and it combines the luxury of a superyacht with dazzling supercoupe looks and a drop-top roof.

They offer excellent service plus comfort and convenience – there’s a coffee shop with a lounge to relax in and free Wi-Fi plus a jumping castle for the kids while your car is being washed.

But if you prefer to use their shuttle service to the Lifestyle Centre, The Ballito Junction or The Circle this runs every 10 minutes from 10 am to 5pm daily so you can shop while your car gets the royal treatment.

Their car wash process uses high pressure spray plus an imported Italian foam formulated to lift the dirt and oxidation without the need for scrubbing that can damage paintwork. The foam leaves a protective layer that seals the paintwork against the harmful effects of coastal air.

And they offer excellent value like a Full House Special from just R60.

Book 3 washes and on the 3rd you will get a free Hand Polish worth R495.

You’ll find the Green Dolphin Car Wash on Nandi Mthembu Drive in the Ballito Business Park – just past the Quarter Shopping Centre and opposite the old Life Hotel and PLG School.

They are open 7 days a week from 7am-5pm for your convenience.
