    Saw my dream car (not availavle in SA) in my neighbourhood !

    Went for a jog and after 6km as I was finishing I thought a saw it from a distance. Initially I though, no its probably a Renault or something that looks close to it. Maybe I am hallucinating or something? But as I got closer... Seems like some lucky person from Gauteng got their hands on a...

    One of those rare cases an Ampera is in front of a Porsche

    ...and then the Porsche will overtake it in the blink of an eye... But its still cool that someone tried an Ampera around Nürburgring :cool:

    I guess we'll never see electric taxis in South Africa

    ...but if you ever travel to Münich you might just catch a ride in an Ampera :

    Good small car for less than R70k

    My wife is doing about 60km on her daily commute and the old Astra is quickly nearing 200,000km. I recently had it serviced and soon afterwards discovered the head gasket is on the brink. It started loosing water (it does not leak) and it was not too keen on starting. We decided to have the...

    Opel concept rival for the VW Up!

    Don't get me wrong, I am thoroughly impressed with the VW Up! and I really hope it makes it to SA. However it seems Opel is working on a concept that could be direct competition for the Up! Perhaps this is a replacement for the Agila?

    Straight up question, which is better? Fiesta or Corsa? And how do they compare to an Uno Mia 1.1?

    Polizei goes electric with Opel Ampera

    Keep an eye out for the Ampera in Berlin! Don't you think that's the best looking police car in the world?

    SA Autobrand Survey : Opel sucks, Mercedes rules and Subaru has best the dealers

    SA Autobrand Survey : Opel sucks, Mercedes rules and Subaru has best dealers I would be a very biased Opel enthusiast if I let this one slide by, but the first annual SA AutoBrand survey (CAR Magazine) has Mercedes, Honda and Audi coming out tops and Renault, Opel and Nissan in the lowest...

    2012 Calibra?

    Not sure how many folks recall the '88 Vectra based Calibra? Well it seems they have plans to revive the Calibra name and true to its roots this is very much an Insignia thats been sexified in coupe form. Also like the Insignia I very much doubt we'll be getting this in SA. Seen here...

    OEM vs. Non-OEM Parts

    For an Opel Corsa 2001 Utility, rear tail light, I paid R150 ex vat from a non-oem parts store, yet from the dealer the light would have cost R850 ex vat! Seriously, how can a 566% price increase from non-oem to oem be justified! Rediculous
