If you’re shopping around for a crossover city-SUV thing and considering the Peugeot 3008, I’ll spare you some time and suggest that you keep looking. However. If the 3008 GT is keeping you awake at night, please read on…
Sprint Reviews
Short ‘n sweet, to the point. These are our no-frills Sprint Reviews:
Sprint Review: 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLA200d
“That guy’s coming to pick up your daughter for a date” we all cringe and laugh when our Cars and Coffee crowd sees a murdered-out SUV. What does murdered-out mean? Black-on-black… will he bring your daughter back?
Sprint Review: 2021 Mercedes-Benz E200 AMG Line
Hailed as the best executive sedan by some, and hailed at airports by others, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class is a truly legendary vehicle. We recently took this new base model for a spin around Windhoek…
Sprint Review: Nissan Qashqai 1.2T Midnight Edition
An Amarok, CX-5, Ranger and Qashqai walk into a bar. Stop me if you’ve heard the one about special black editions…
Sprint Review: Volkswagen T-Roc 2.0 TSi 4Motion R-Line
Oh good, another crossover SUV. But instead of spitting sarcasm and ranting all day, I’ll try to give you a good impression of this new Volksie…
Sprint Review: Audi A4 40TFSI S-Line
Is the car being perfected?
We recently tested the new Audi A4 40TFSI, and one question that came to mind was from a statement that a business woman in Cape Town once made back in 1995. We had a discussion one evening in a restaurant, and she alleged that a certain German brand has perfected the car. I was reminded of her statement during the time we had this striking blue Audi A4 on test.
Sprint Review: Suzuki Baleno Manual GLX
The darkest horse of them all
The Suzuki Baleno was introduced into the Southern-African market in 2016 and while it has not created many waves since, we at NamWheels believe it to be the other way around. Why look away from a car with outstanding fuel consumption, massive amounts of space, a reliable engine, and a B-segment price, even if it challenges the price offering of most C-segment cars?
Sprint Review: Audi Q3 Sportback 40TFSi quattro S-Line
Another day, another compact crossover. Audi figuratively stuck their second-gen Q3 into a press, squeezed it into a hatchback, pardon, coupé, pardon, Sportback shape and charges you extra for the loss in practicality.
Sprint Review: Kia Rio Hatch 1.4 LS Auto
Thanks to the unstoppable armada of SUV’s, hatchbacks are following their sedan brethren by dying a not-so-slow death in our sales charts. Nonetheless, Kia still makes this wholesome Rio and we give you our quick impression of it.
Sprint Review: Mazda CX-5 Carbon Edition
Special Editions. In the world of Japanese pick-ups and that British island in the North Atlantic, a special edition has become its very own antithesis. They’re so common that you’ll be hard pressed to find a standard model… so why did Mazda decide to plaster the word “Carbon” over this CX-5?
