The 2023 Simola Hillclimb saw a total of 84 entries across all categories, anything from normal road going vehicles to single seater formula cars. As in 2022, the weather also played a major role, but this time, the rain covered the 1.9km track on the last day, rather than during the qualifying runs on Saturday.
Knysna
How and why should I watch the 2023 Simola Hillclimb
The iconic Simola Hillclimb in South Africa is set for its 13th year and judging by the action seen at the #ClassicCarFriday event, as well as the 2023 Simola Hillclimb parade, spectators are in for one of the best editions yet. If you could not make your way to Knysna in person, do not fear as there are multiple ways to virtually attend this magnificent event.
Long-term test: 2019 Isuzu mu-X 3.0 AWD
The perfect flaw
Anonymity can be a wonderful thing. As 2019 was drawing to a close, I reflected on some of the colourful cars we tested and decided to book something mundane for the holidays. You know, some large bakkie-based SUV with seven seats and a clattering diesel engine. Have you met the Isuzu mu-X yet?
Geskiedenis: Renault Clio
Familiemotor en ook vierwiel Mirage
Dit is nou 20 jaar wat die Renault Clio in ons midde is en nog steeds die koppe laat draai. Die opvolger van die befaamde Renault 5, wat in die sewentigs en tagtigs by uitstek die motor van dames met styl was, en ook vurige jong mans wat met die TS modelle die pad aan die brand gery het, het ‘n hele paar jaar later by ons sy opwagting gemaak; dit nadat hy in Frankryk reeds diep spore getrap het.
