THE simple backyard shed is no longer just a storage place for tools and lawnmowers. Sheds now also fall under the catƺǕȒȸɵ Ȓǔ ɯȒȸǸɀǝȒȵً ˡɎȇƺɀɀ Ǖɵȅً Ƭɖƫƫɵ ǝȒɖɀƺً ǝȒȅƺ ȒǔˡƬƺ ƏȇƳ Ȓǔ ƬȒɖȸɀƺً the man cave. While size can limit where your dreams can take you, the bigger the shed the greater the possibilities for turning it into a functional and fun environment. When building or revamping a shed you need to focus on what you use it for now and what its use will be in the future - you don’t want to be constantly throwing money at it. It’s often easier and cheaper to pull down an old existing shed and replace it with a new one that you ƬƏȇ ƫɖǣǼƳ ɎȒ ɵȒɖȸ ɀȵƺƬǣˡƬƏɎǣȒȇɀً ƫɖɎ remember to get council approval before you start. Sheds range from small metal storage units to grand garages and sanctuaries. A simple garden shed to store equipment and tools costs about $500, while custombuilt sheds can vary from $2500 to $20,000 depending on the materials used, along with the size and design of the building. A shed needs to withstand the el-
ements, so use strong weather resistant materials on a solid concrete base. Plan your layout carefully so you aren’t having to compromise later - this includes where access points will be and how large they are. Make sure you organise power points throughout for tools and battery chargers, and if you’re lucky enough a television and fridge. If you’re turning your shed into Əȇ ȒǔˡƬƺ Ȓȸ ƺȇɎƺȸɎƏǣȇǣȇǕ ƏȸƺƏ ɵȒɖ should also think about heating and cooling, given most sheds are made from metal where temperatures inside can vary greatly. You should also consider ventilaɎǣȒȇ ɀɖƬǝ Əɀ ɯǣȇƳȒɯɀ Ȓȸ Ə ȸȒȒˡȇǕ fan, as fumes can quickly build up in small spaces. Organisation and storage within your shed is key. While shelving is handy it can also be messy, so try using trays and drawers with labels to ensure everything stays neat and ƺƏɀɵ ɎȒ ˡȇƳِ Make use of empty space such as walls with racks and hooks for hanging items, and in ceiling frames which are great for storing longer items such as rakes, shovels or camping equipment.

Ŷ GORGEOUS DESIGN: The front of the Peugeot 2008 is expansive - we really like it.
Peugeot 2008 GT Sport radiates French style THE Peugeot 2008 GT Sport is a small-medium SUV that leans in the direction of medium. The 2008 designation (which Peugeot prefers to call two-thousand eight rather than two double-oh eight) means that it’s an SUV rather than a tall hatchback. It’s not a GT or a Sport in the true sense of these labels, but it does have slightly firmer suspension and a different steering feel that will appeal to those who like to drive. STYLING The French are seemingly incapable of designing a car that doesn’t look great. The front is large and expansive, the window lines swoop up beautifully as they pass the centre of the rear doors. The
By EWAN KENNEDY wheel arches are large and carry black lips to emphasise that it’s an SUV. There are large scallops in the doors themselves. A black panel all the way across the rear carries large lights, and the roof extends beyond the glass top and sides to give a sort of spoiler look. The door mirrors also get the black treatment and there are GT badges at their rear support them to let the person sitting beside you at a red light know what you’re driving. As we said, very French, and all we showed our test car liked it. INTERIOR Classed a five-seater -
though we would call it a four-plus-one - rear area is as attractive as the rest of the car. As is the norm in cars of this size those in the front might have to give up some legroom to make better space for tall travellers back there. The boot has a volume of 434 litres with all seats in use, and 1467 litres with the 60:40 rear seats both folded down. However, they don’t fold flat so our dog’s bed couldn’t be used there. There’s a slim out-of-sight area below the floor. SAFETY The Peugeot 2008 has a five-star safety rating. It has six airbags; driver and front passenger front and side and curtains. There are IsoFix
child seat fittings for the outboard rear seats. Other passive safety features are tyre pressure sensors, and seatbelt not fastened alerts. DRIVING Ahh, the quirky French. The Peugeot digital instrument cluster sits on the top of the dashboard. You look over the top of the small steering wheel to see the instruments. I’m tall and like to sit high in a car so could see the instruments, others who drove it had their vision almost blotted out. There’s just a hint of frontwheel-drive torque steer if you really blast it off the line in a traffic light grand prix. Okay, I’m not as young as I once was, but still enjoy driv-
ing like this. There’s a sedate feel in the cabin during normal driving that almost feels like you’re in a larger car, even a prestige car at times. The French do like their comfort and this shows up beautifully. That’s despite the slightly sporty set up in the suspension. On the open road with twisty bits, it handles nicely and gives feedback through the steering wheel. On motorways it’s smooth and almost silent, bump-thump is felt through some joints in other ones it’s fine. The little 1.2-litre engine is willing enough and chats nicely to the eight-speed auto to make sure it’s in the right gear for the time.
SUMMING UP Want to get away from the serious German and somewhat classy British sporty SUVs? Then the very French Peugeot 2008 should sit at the top of your shopping list.

Citroen C5 Aircross: delightfully different By ALISTAIR KENNEDY AFTER some time in the Australian automotive wilderness Citroen, under its new importer, Inchcape, has been rejuvenated, albeit with a range of just three vehicles: the C3 small hatchback and two SUVs, compact C3 Aircross and, our test car, the mid-sized C5 Aircross. The C5 Aircross comes in two variants, Feel and Shine, priced at $42,990 and $46,990 plus on-road costs. STYLING We love the looks of this big French SUV. The overall shape sticks to traditional SUV body styling but the combination of an imposing grille highlighted by the latest version of the iconic Citroen chevron badge
leading to a high-tech twotiered bonnet, stylish side vents with coloured inserts and four-piece taillights call out ‘Vive La Difference’. SAFETY Standard features in both C5 Aircross variants includes six airbags; enhanced ABS brakes; autonomous emergency braking; lane departure warning; lane keep assist; blind spot detection; speed-sign recognition; driver inattention alert; surround view parking monitor; IsoFix child-seat anchorages; and front parking sensors (rear also in the Shine). Poor scores in some pedestrian and cyclist safety aspects of the autonomous emergency braking system have led to a four-star ANCAP rating.
Ŷ SHINING BRIGHT: Citroen C5 Aircross shines among traditional SUVs.
DRIVING Arguably the best feature of the C5 Aircross is comfort, not only inside but also in its driving qualities. It uses Citroen’s all-new Progressive Hydraulic Cushion suspension which use two hydraulic stops - one for compression and one for rebound which work in tandem to further slow down the whole action of the shocks SUMMING UP Unfortunately for Citroen the C5 Aircross sits in the large and highly-competitive Medium SUV market segment where it’s up against vehicles such as Toyota RAV4, Mazda CX-5, Nissan X-Trail, Hyundai Tucson et al.
