SOMERSETWEST: SUITABLE FOR FIRST TIME BUYERS AND FOR SCALING DOWN

AcornCreekaffordable,

secure living

A

newsecureresidential estate isbe-

ing developed on the outskirts of

Somerset West, offering an ideal

lock-up-and-go lifestyle.

AcornCreekwill consistof full titlehomes,

located amidst pristine farmland on the

western side of the town. PamGolding Prop-

erties (PGP) has the exclusive mandate to

market thedevelopmentandsays itwill offer

affordable housing in a high-security envi-

ronment thatneverthelessretains theappeal

of country living.

The first phase of Acorn Creek will offer

a choice of 60 erven, ranging in size from 292

m to 747 m. Design options will include a

choice of single- or double-storey units, with

either twoor threebedrooms, plus theoption

of a study and either a single or double ga-

rage. Buyers can also opt for extras such as

pergolas, covered patios, automated garages

and built-in braais. Prices will range from

R668 814 to R854 537, inclusive of VAT and

with no transfer duties applicable. High

quality finishes will include granite kitchen

counter tops and aluminium windows.

The estate totals close to 19 ha in size, and

has a scenic canal running through its heart,

which landscapers intend to make a key de-

sign element of the public garden areas. Ad-

ditional green belts will border much of the

residential area, creating an aesthetic flow

into the surrounding farmland, while tree-

lined avenueswill further enhance the natu-

ral environment. Security features will in-

clude electrified perimeter fencing, with a

guard house, CCTV camera monitoring and

biometric access control.

PGPs area manager for Somerset West,

LindaKillick, says theestatewill be the ideal

home for first-time buyers as well as those

scaling down from larger homes.

She adds that the location alongside the

R102 toKuilsRivermeans that residentswill

have easy access to the N2 highway as well

as into the town centre. As a result they can

enjoy the best of country living with scenic

views in a tranquil environment, while still

being able to access their places of work,

medical care, schools and other facilities

with ease. The popular Waterstone Village

ShoppingCentre is just 4,5 kmaway,offering

aPicknPay,Woolworths,VirginActivegym

and numerous restaurants.

Somerset West CBD has a presence from

all major retailers and banks, as well as a

private hospital. And, of course, some of the

most famous vineyards in the country are

just a few kilometres away, many of them

offering outstanding restaurants and wine-

tasting facilities. The cherry on top is that

the Strand beach front can be reached in 10

minutes, and Cape Town International Air-

port in less than half an hour.

Occupation is anticipated by early 2014.

Verhuurders: Sorg dat jul versekering openbare aanspreeklikheid dek

As jy eiendom verhuur, moet jy sekermaak

jy is vir openbare aanspreeklikheid gedek.

Sulke dekking word gewoonlik in polisse

vir motors en huishoudelike inhoud inge-

sluit, maar nie noodwendig in n huiseie-

naarspolis wat jou teen skade aan of verlies

van n eiendom wat jy verhuur dek nie, s

Berry Everitt, besturende direkteur van die

Chas Everitt International-eiendomsgroep.

n Onlangse geval in die Verenigde Ko-

ninkryk toon duidelik wat die gevolge kan

wees as daar so n gaping in jou dekking is.

nBesoeker het op die trappe in n huureien-

dom geval en die eis teen die eienaar van

die eiendom gaan na verwagting heelwat

meer as 1 miljoen beloop. Die huurder se

besoeker beweer die trappe was nie geskik

vir die doel nie en omdat hy nog jonk is,

sal enige vergoeding indien die huisbaas

aanspreeklikwel gehouword n aansienli-

ke sombedraomdeurlopendeversorging en

verlies aan inkomste te dek. Gelukkig het

die huisbaas in di geval dekking vir open-

bare aanspreeklikheid, maar daarsonder

sou sy geldsake benard gewees het.

Everitt skryf in die jongste uitgawe van

die nuusbrief, Property Signposts, dat die

meeste SA banke daarop aandring dat huis-

eienaarsversekering uitgeneem word op

enige eiendom waarop daar n verband ge-

hou word, ongeag of dit deur die eienaar be-

woon word of verhuur word - en dit is di

polis wat vir n klousule oor openbare aan-

spreeklikheid gefynkam moet word.

Indien daar wel so n klousule is, sal dit

gewoonlik skade of verlies van eiendom en

besering van almalwatwettig op die perseel

is uitsluitend lede van jou huishouding

dek. So n klousule sal uiteraard huurders

van n eiendom en hul gaste dek.

As daar egter nie so n klousule is nie,

of as daar nie n verband op die eiendom is

nie en jy om een of ander rede nie huiseie-

naarsversekeringhetnie, behoort jy jouma-

kelaar of versekeringsmaatskappy sonder

versuim te nader om die saak reg te stel.

Onthou ook dat hoewel jou huurder dek-

kingviropenbareaanspreeklikheidinsyeie

polis vir huishoudelike inhoud mag h, dit

heel waarskynlik nie lede van sy huishou-

dingdeknieenjymagheelwaarskynlikaan-

spreeklik gehou word indien enige lid van

die huishouding op die trappe val, oor onge-

lyke plaveisel struikel, of as n lekkende

warmwatertoesteldieplafonbeskadigendit

op iemand val.

Volgens Everitt, is die saak nog dringen-

der as jy eiendom in n deeltitelkompleks

verhuur. n Woonkompleks het gewoonlik

een polis wat al die geboue in die kompleks

dek en die premies word deur die regsper-

soon uit eienaars se maandelikse heffings

betaal. Maar as n klousule oor openbare

aanspreeklikheid nie ingesluit is nie, en n

besoekerword op gesamentlike eiendombe-

seer, sal jy en jou mede-eienaars self enige

skadevergoedingwatdeur n hof toegestaan

word, moet betaal.

Canyousell privately?

Is it possible to sell your property pri-

vately? Yes it is. Some estate agents may

tell you that you cant do it and that you

dont have the skills to sell your home.

Thats untrue.

Manypropertyownershaveperfectly ade-

quate skills, in some cases perhaps better

than some agents.

But arent you foolish

to let total strangers in-

to your property? Well,

caution must be exer-

cised and some form of

buyer qualification

needs to take place. But

in many cases you are

just as exposedwhenan

estate agent brings an

unqualified buyer to

your property.

How would you

handle the contract? As

soon as you have

reached agreement on

the price and the terms

you could instruct your

conveyancing attorney

totakecareof thepaper-

work.

The truth is that there is nothing to stop

you selling your own property. If you want

to sell to any buyer, that is.

The difference is that when you sell with

a professional real estate company that real-

lymarketsyourpropertyyouwill attract the

best buyers and the best buyers pay you

maximum market price.

So thats thedifference

between selling your

property privately, and

selling through a real es-

tate company: market-

ing.

A professional real es-

tate company should be

really skilled at market-

ing your property to at-

tract maximum buyer

interest. When all the

buyersseeyourproperty

well marketed they will

show interest. Thismass

of buyer enquiry creates

buyer competition

where more than one

buyer shows interest in

a property.

The real estate mar-

ket, like any other mar-

ket,works on supply and

demand. So when multiple buyers show in-

terest in your property then they start to

compete against each other for it. And they

do this bymaking really good offers on your

property often paying full asking price

if the asking price represents fair market

value.

Contrast that to selling privately. When

you sell privately, you are very limited in

terms of the marketing that you can do. The

resultant lack inbuyerenquiry leads tovery

low levels of buyer competition and lower

offers.

So if the main difference between finding

the best buyer (whowill pay youmaximum)

and just any buyer (who will make low of-

fers) ismarketing, then justwhatmarketing

are you getting from your estate agent?

Do you have a written marketing plan

with guaranteed advertising? Does your

marketing include print and website adver-

tising? Do you have professional photos?

Does the agency have a database of buyers

they can match to your property? What is

being done to make your property stand out

in the crowd and appeal to buyers? Do you

have access to national and international

buyers?

If the answer to the above is no, then its

unlikely theywill achieve abetter selling re-

sult than you would privately.

However, if you want to achieve the best

price then you need to be exposed to the best

buyers who will compete for your property

and offer you the highest price they can

and isnt that what every seller wants? This

will more than justify any agents fees you

have to pay.

Find a professional real estate company

who commits to world-class marketing, and

sell for the most the market will pay.

E-mail your real estate question to

[email protected].

SPARK:CHEV INVESTS IN SOUTHAFRICA

Local is lekkerwithaChevySpark

QUICKPIC

F

ollowing a R1-billion investment in

its local manufacturing plant in Port

Elizabeth, General Motors South Af-

ricas (GMSA) locally producedChevrolet

Spark celebrates its first year of SouthAf-

rican production this May.

With five different and distinct models to

choose from, each designed

around their uniquely South

African consumers, the new

Chevrolet Spark is the personi-

fication of that age-old adage:

local is lekker.

Harking back to vehicles

which have been absent from

the South African market for

some time now, the new Spark

Pronto which is fully classi-

fied as a commercial vehicle

and offers VAT exemption to

VAT-registered businesses is

theperfect solution to thedeliv-

ery or cargo-carrying needs of

any small business.

Lookingsmart,being lighton

its feet, able to carry 275 kg of

goods and offering a generous

cargo volume of 876 litres, the

new Spark Pronto means deal-

ing with smaller items is now

a breeze.

From couriers and florists to

security companies and medi-

cal laboratoriesthenewSpark

Pronto serves brilliantly as a

practical andversatile city run-

about.

Not forgetting passenger and

driving comfort, the Spark

Pronto still features the same

high levels of passenger com-

fort and safetyas found inother

Spark models, with dual front

airbags, ABS with EBD, power steering, re-

mote central locking and air conditioning all

available as standard, along with speakers

and audiowiring in place should the optional

radio be fitted.

The Spark Pronto also features the same

economical 60 kW/ 108 Nm 1,2-litre petrol en-

gine and five-speed manual gearbox as found

in all other Sparkmodels, bringingwith it ex-

cellent fuel efficiency (5,4 litres per 100 km on

the combined average cycle and 129 g/km

CO2).

All for R101 500, inclusive of VAT.

Thanks to the flexibility afforded to us due

to the local manufacture of the ever-popular

Chevrolet Spark, we have been able to tailor

the local rangeandofferSouthAfricansreally

unique options to suit their tastes. The new

Spark Pronto fills a gap in the market where

small businesses may not have been able to

afford or require a bona fide bakkie like the

Chevrolet Utility now they can enjoy a pur-

pose-builtcompactcommercialvehiclewhich

not only offers generous practicality but also

comes with the verve offered by other Spark

derivatives, comments Chevrolet Brand

Manager, Tim Hendon.

Launched towards the end of 2012 as part

of the local production programme, the Chev-

rolet Spark Campus is just another example

of how GMSA has taken advantage of their

investment in the Spark. With the Spark al-

ready featuring as a prominent choice for stu-

dent consumers in South Africa thanks to

its youthful looks, attractive pricing and

cool connotations linked to the original

Chevrolet Beat concept car which featured in

theTransformersmovies theSparkCampus

is the perfect option for those budget-minded

students who require a cost-effective car

which still looks fun and funky.

Carrying a sticker price of just R106 100 and

still featuring all the essentials like air condi-

tioning, remote central locking, a radio-ready

audiosetupwhichallows foryouth-typicalau-

dio system customisation, ABSwith EBD and

dual frontairbags, theSparkCampuspresents

a no-compromise budget-friendly value op-

tion.

Its fuel economyalso adds to the value prop-

ositionwhere students who operate on a tight

budget can rest easy without exorbitant fuel

expenses.

Complementing theSparkProntoandCam-

pus models, the revised range is completed

by the new Spark, Spark LS and Spark LT de-

rivatives, each of which offers enhanced lev-

els of specificationandaddedallure.Building

on the generous standard equipment list, the

affordable andwell-priced Spark range is fur-

ther enhanced by the new premium look and

feel of the LS and LTmodels, which continue

along the strong lines created in the A-seg-

ment by the original Spark L and LS models.

From the new R113 600 Spark, which gains

enhanced features like roof rails, an alarm

and immobiliser combination

and a comprehensive audio sys-

temwith CD,MP3, USB and aux-

iliary support, to the R123 000

SparkLSwhichseestheaddition

of chrome detailing, 14-inch al-

loy wheels, electric front win-

dows and mirrors, auto-locking

doorsandsteeringwheel-mount-

ed audio controls, to the range-

topping Spark LT (R136 500)

which sports 15-inch alloy

wheels, extra colour-coding on

thebody, electricwindowsat the

rear, side airbags, rear parking

sensors and an optional decal

package there really is a Spark

to suit any South African pocket

and taste.

We really believe the revised

Chevrolet Spark range appeals

tomanydifferentSouthAfricans

on many different levels. With

such a vast array of models on

offer and with very keen pricing

to boot, the Chevrolet Spark will

continue to serve as one of the

most popular vehicles in the en-

try level segment.

Being able to tailor the Spark

line-up to suit the needs and

wants of our local consumers is

something we are very proud of

at GMSA, said Alastair Iron-

side, generalmanager ofMarket-

ing at GMSA. After the Spark

was honoured as 2011s top performing pas-

senger vehicle in South Africa according to

the Synovate Quality Awards, we are wholly

committedtomaintainingtheexcellentquali-

ty of a proudly South African product.

The comprehensive new Chevrolet Spark

range comes standard with a 5-year/ 120 000

km warranty and comprehensive Roadside

Assistance, as well as five years anti-corro-

sion cover.

A service plan is available on all models as

an optional extra on purchase.

The range-topping Spark LT (R136 500) which sports 15-inch alloy wheels, extra colour-coding on the body, electric win-

dows at the rear, side airbags, rear parking sensors and an optional decal package there really is a Spark to suit

Tomaximise the full potential of theCR-Zs

IMA hybrid power-train, a Plus Sport button

has been added to the coups multifunction

steering wheel. It provides access to a new

SportPlusmode,availableonlywhenthebat-

tery charge is atmore than 50 percent of total

capacity.

The S+mode provides instant access to the

extra power boost provided by the electric

motor for up to 10 seconds under full throttle.

A flashing indicator in the instrument panel

confirmswhen the S+ feature is active. It can

be selected in all three drivingmodes offered

by the trend-setting coup: Eco, Normal and

Sport.

The 2013 Honda CR-Z further

sively low emissions levels.

In addition, the keener styling

The 2013 Honda CR-Z is availa-

tery pack. The updated CR-Z now employs a

lithium-ion battery instead of the previous

nickel-metal hybrid design. This has allowed

the power output of the electric motor to be

upped from 10 kW to 15 kW.

Withboth thepetrol engineand theelectric

motor working in tandem, the IMA hybrid

system is able to produce a combined total

output of 101 kW (10,5 percent more than be-

fore) with an accompanying torque peak of

190 Nm (an improvement of 9,2 percent).

The power hike allows meaningful gains

in performance. The 0 - 100 km/h sprint time

improves from 9,7 sec to 9,0 sec, while top

speed is 200 km/h.

Despite the improvement in the coups

Revised door panel casings allow for im-

However, perhaps themost significant im-

provements are to be found under the Honda

coups sleekly sculpted shape. While its ad-

vanced 1,5-litre petrol engine has been re-

tained, this latest version employs a revised

i-VTEC variable valve timing system, linked

to an updated electronic control unit (ECU).

As a result, maximum power output has in-

creased from the previous 84 kW to 89 kW.

MaseratiGhiblimakesworldwidedebut

QUICKPIC

The all-new Ghibli is set to break new

ground for Maserati.

With its debut at theShanghaiMotor Show,

itmarksthe first timeinMaseratihistorythat

the Italian sports, luxury and prestige maker

will have two four-door sedans on sale at the

same time.

The Ghiblis design ethos emphasizes its

more dynamic driving characteristics by

maintaining visible links with the larger

Quattroporte,whiledeliveringamoreaggres-

sive visual personality.

The outline of the body reflects a coup-like

philosophy for the four-door sedan, while

there are strong feline hints around theGhib-

lis grille and headlights. The grille takes its

inspiration from the current GranTurismo

and it can draw a line back to the classic A6

GCS of the 1950s.

It also maintains Maseratis distinctive C-

pillar treatment, which delivers much of the

coup-like stance and carries the classical Sa-

ettaMaserati logo,carryingonatraditiondat-

ing back to 1963. The side profile is dominated

by a swage line that runs from the traditional

Maserati grille vents behind the front wheels

and finishes in the rear lights themselves.

Inside, the Ghibli sets itself apart from the

Quattroporte with its own dashboard design

that perfectly meets the buyers need for a

sportier and youthful experiencewithout los-

ing any of the luxury expected in a Maserati.

TheGhibliwill have amore focused, sporti-

er philosophy than the larger Quattroporte.

Itwillbeavailablewith twoturbo-charged3.0-

litreV6 gasoline engines, an eight-speed auto-

matic transmissionandbothrear-wheeldrive

and the new Q4 all-wheel drive system.

The most powerful of the V6s will be the

twin-turbounit in theGhibli S,whichproduc-

es 301 kW (410 hp) of power at 5 500 rpm and

550 Nmof torque from just 1 750 rpm. This en-

gine is shared between the rear-wheel drive

Ghibli S and the all-wheel drive Ghibli S Q4.

The all-wheel drive Ghibli S Q4 will reach

100 km/h in just 4,8 seconds, while the rear-

wheel drive version takes just 0,2 seconds

longer. The Ghibli S has a quoted top speed

of 285 km/h, which is just 1 km/h faster than

the Ghibli S Q4.

The second turbo-charged 3.0-litre V6 gaso-

line engine available on the Ghibli not only

has an impressive power of 243 kW (330 hp)

and 500 Nmof torque, but delivers a fuel econ-

omy figure of just 9,6 litres/100 km. It ismuch

more than a fuel saving car, though, because

it is capableofaccelerating to100 km/hin just

5,6 seconds. Both of these engines, with their

parallel turbochargers, were developed by

MaseratiPowertrain inpartnershipwithFer-

rari Powertrain and will be built by Ferrari

in itsworld-leading engine construction facil-

ity in Maranello.

Sharing much of the technology with the

Quattroportes 3.8-litre V8 engine, the V6 en-

ginesuse gasolinedirect injection technology

along with two low-inertia parallel turbo-

chargers, four continuous camshaft phasers

anddeliver their fuelataround200barofpres-

sure. This technology means that while the

Ghibli S V6 has a rev limiter at 6500 rpm; it

still delivers 90% of its torque from less than

1 500 rpm.

TheGhibliwill also become the firstMaser-

ati production car in history to be powered

byadieselengine,witha3.0-litreV6turbo-die-

sel. The 3.0-litre turbo-charged V6 develops

202 kW (275 hp) of power and a crushing

600Nmof torque to deliver 0-100km/h acceler-

ation in just 6,3 seconds. Critically, its NEDC

fuel economy figure is less than 6,.0 litres per

100 km. ItuseshighlyadvancedCommon-Rail

direct fuel injectionwith 2000 bar of injection

pressure and it also features reduced-dwell-

time injectors. This helps it to deliver sequen-

tial multiple injections for highly responsive

performance and cleaner emissions.

The Ghibli is set to reveal a character all

its own thanks to its combination of double-

wishbone front suspension and a state-of-the-

art, multi-link rear suspension with the op-

tion of the active Skyhook system, part-time

all-wheeldrive, firmsuspensiondampingand

powerful braking system.

The Ghibli is the only car in its class to use

a standard mechanical limited slip differen-

tial in all its versions in order to deliver the

best inherent traction in all driving situa-

tions.

Like the Quattroporte, its chassis design is

based around a rigid and extremely secure

steelsafetycell thatemploysanarrayofdiffer-

ent steel and aluminium alloys to deliver pre-

cise strengths andminimal weight. The front

of its chassis is based around an aluminium

casting with a reinforced cross-strut which

helps deliver outstanding rigidity in all direc-

tions, while the rear of the chassis is made

from rolled steel.

The Ghiblis three ground-breaking en-

gines will be fitted into a wheelbase that is

around 20 centimetres shorter than the Quat-

troporte (2,99 metres) and an overall length

that is, at 4,97 metres, 29 cm shorter.

TheGhibliSwillboast 360 mmx32 mmven-

tilated and cross-drilled dual-cast front brake

discs while it has 350 mm x 28 mm ventilated

rear discs. It uses six-piston Brembo fixed

brake calipers on the front and four-piston

units at the rear to help it stop from 100 km/h

to zero in just 36 metres. The Ghibli sits on

18-inch wheels and tyres, while the Ghibli S

models ride on 18 -inch staggered tyres; 19-

inch, 20-inch and 21-inchwheels are available

as options.
