Aan die einde van die 40ste be-

staansjaar van Anna Basson Eien-

domme Stellenbosch is besluit om

hierdie funksie te hou aan die einde

vanelke finansile jaar, sodat almal

die nuweenergie enmotiveringwat

prestasie meebring, kan ervaar.

Danksy n ongelooflike samestel-

ling vanbeeldmateriaal deur n jare

lange vriend enklint van diemaat-

skappy, is die gaste by die privaat

funksie vermaakmetmusiek en op-

voerings van die sestigs tot die ne-

gentigs (wat sommige se gaste ou-

derdomme weggegee het!).

Wyle dr. Anton Rupert se filoso-

fie, naamlik Hywat nie inwonder-

werke glo nie, is nie n realis nie,

is weer eens bevestig. Mense soos

Susan Boyle het gewys dat drome

waar kan word.

N afloop van n inspirerende en

nostalgiese reis, is die Agente van

die Jaar vir 2012 bekendgemaak.

Yoland Visser is as Verkoops-

agent van die jaar aangewys. Sy het

die meeste kommissie geskryf , nie

n eerste vir haar nie!

Cornette Liebenberg is as Wer-

wingsagent van die jaar aangewys.

Cornettehetdiemeesteregteei-

endomme gewerf, met ander woor-

de eiendomme wat verkoop het

ooknie n eerste erkenning vir haar

nie.

n Redelike nuweling in die span,

Janine Taylor, is as Verhurings-

agent van die jaar aangewys weens

die grootste groei in die verhurings-

portefeulje van Anna Basson Eien-

domme).

JaninebestuurdieWelgevonden-

kantoor van Anna Basson Eien-

domme.

Yoland en Cornette werk reeds

11en12jaaronderskeidelikbyAnna

Basson Eiendomme Stellenbosch.

Die kompetisie was weer eens

baie sterk en ons by Anna Basson

Eiendomme is bevoorreg om so n

uitmuntende span te h.

Sonderonsbaiebekwameonder-

steunende administratiewe span

sou ons ook nie die prestasies kon

behaal nie, het Mari Basson-Car-

stens, prinsipaal van Anna Basson

Eiendomme ges.

Die funksie is afgesluitmet nher-

haling van opvoerings van gewone

mense wat die sterre bereik het.

Dankie aan ons hele span van

sterre! As n Stellenbosse firma

sedert 1972, het ons besef hoe ge-

send ons is en ons sal altyd ons leu-

se uitleef Ons leef Stellenbosch,

het Basson-Carstens bygevoeg.

Nothing gives you that sense of

South African history than be-

ing in the heart of our countrys

oldest town, Stellenbosch.

Thousands of tourists flock to

this gemofa town,knownasEikes-

tad for its oak tree-lined avenues,

in the heart of one of the worlds

most renowned wine regions.

It takes an effort tomaintainAn-

dringa Street, which forms a T-

junction with Dorp Street, a na-

tional monument in Stellenbosch,

which epitomises Eikestad. The

lush green oak trees in summer

and soft autumn and winter hues

they provide during the colder

months transform this oak-lined

street into a kaleidoscope of colour

allyearround.Thestreet is flanked

bymany complexes, shops and bis-

tros and finds itself in the middle

of the hustle and bustle of a cosmo-

politan melting pot of student and

tourist lifestyles.

Just about in the middle of the

street lies Stelmont, a complex fast

becoming a part of Stellenbosch

history. Known for its ideal loca-

tion for students and tourists, it

was decided to renovate this com-

plex to preserve its aesthetic ap-

peal in the heart of one of SouthAf-

ricas favourite towns.

Main contractors, Indawo Paint-

ing and Waterproofing, were com-

missionedtocompletelyredecorate

and repair the exterior structures

of the complex and to waterproof

the main roof, concrete canopy on

the front faade and balconies.

Indawomanagingdirector,Peter

Jck, says, One of the challenges

of this job is the exterior architec-

tural finish. The rough stippled

plaster finish demands an enor-

mous amount of paint. To be able

to provide a cost effective solution,

we had to be precise in our calcula-

tions of the paint requirements.

The rough stipple can reduce the

surface paint spread by up to 50%.

The waterproofing of the roof is

also a complex project on its own.

Existing concretepavershave tobe

removed to expose the old water-

proofing membrane before remov-

al and relaying of this layer can be

done.

One of the most important as-

pects of the job is the minimal dis-

ruption to tenants, including the

small businesses on theground lev-

el.

Jck commends managing

agents JPS Trust in Stellenbosch,

They have identified the critical

areas of concern and immediately

commissioned the repairs. By do-

ing this they have avoided more

mont will increase its investor ap-

peal.

Buyclose towork to

saveon fuel costs

With South Africas energy prices in-

creasing faster than the consumer price

index,homebuyers should considermov-

ingastoclosetotheirworkplacesaspossi-

ble.

Thats the message from Prof Matthew

Lester of theRhodesSchool ofBusiness, after

the release of South Africas 2013 budget.

A guest speaker at Greyvensteins Attor-

neys Property Forum in Port Elizabeth this

year, Lester said that South Africa was in an

energycrisis,evidencedbythefactthatitwas

paying international prices for electricity

and petrol.

It was therefore critical for consumers to

start relooking at their energy usage and

what it was costing them to travel, he said,

adding that transport costs needed to be

moved to the top of home buyers priority

lists.

With the very high cost of fuel, and carbon

tax coming strongly into South Africa, the

cost of which would be passed on to the con-

sumer, people needed to travel less, heurged.

While location, location, location was still

the watchword of real estate buying, he con-

tinued, this real estate truism now had to in-

clude proximity to work. By living close to

work, he said, consumers could make a sig-

nificant impact on their prohibitively ex-

pensive living costs to ensure that they

would be able to afford to maintain their

homes in the long run.

Propertieswereoftenaffordable tobuybut

too expensive to keep, he added, hence his

encouragement of people rechanneling as

much of the money they were currently

spending on commuting as possible into pay-

ing off their bonds and the general mainte-

nance of their homes.

Lester also urged people not to rely on the

government to put a roof over their heads,

saying it was already supporting the majori-

tyof thecountrys52millioncitizens in terms

of social grants. Pointing out that people to-

day had a life expectancy of 100 years, he said

manywouldbe retired for as long as theyhad

worked.

The time of the six parent family has ar-

rived can we afford to all live in different

homes? he asked. To this end, he suggested

that there had never been a better time than

now to make structural changes. This was

particularly pertinent to families able to live

comfortably on the same property what he

referred to as bunking up. This is a huge

opportunity to save a fortune, he said. Pay-

ing your bond is one thing, maintenance and

upkeep quite another, so if youre going to

move, make the move now and dont follow

the market.

While a relatively alien concept for South

Africans who were used to long and congest-

ed commutes, and who placed a high value

on location and late model cars, the concept

of living close to work was gaining momen-

tum in other countries, says Richard Gray,

CEO of Harcourts Real Estate.

The issue of living close to work has been

thrust into the spotlight by, among others,

the Chicago-based Center for Neighborhood

Technology (CNT) and Johns Hopkins Uni-

versity in Maryland, USA, he says. The

CNT uses a Housing and Transportation Af-

fordability Index tomeasure the trueafforda-

bility of housing based onwhere it is located.

The ideal according to this index is thathous-

ing and transport costs, the two largest ex-

penses in most homes in the US, should ac-

count for no more than 45% of their budget,

and this is likely to apply to South Africa,

too.

The Live Near Your Work initiative of

theJohnsHopkinsUniversity furtherunder-

pins the shift in home buyers minds, he

maintains. The programme has been de-

signed to help employees reduce their travel-

ling costs and times while simultaneously

building equity in their homes.

MichelleCarlstrom, senior director of the

UniversitysOffice ofWork,Life andEngage-

ment, who oversees the programme, relocat-

ed and in so doing, reduced her daily com-

mute fromalmost90minutes to just fourmin-

utes. Thats not just a huge saving in petrol

and wear and tear but also in terms of time:

85 minutes a day multiplied by 22 working

days amonth equals 31 hours of driving time

saved in just one month! Multiply this by 11

monthsandshe is saving341hoursof driving

time a year. Imagine what you could do with

that time and the money saved!

Something house hunters can consider,

Grant adds, is quality of life. Living close

to your workplace will allow for a better bal-

ance between work and home. Youll have

more time to spend with your family or

friends and more time to pursue hobbies or

upgrade your skills.

Healthyactivity in the

local propertymarket

The first four months of 2013 have seen a

healthy improvement in the local proper-

ty market.

The property market, like all markets,

works on supply anddemand.When there are

moreproperties for sale than therearebuyers

thenthereisabuyersmarketwhichgener-

ally means that buyers are in control and

make lower offers.

When we experience the reverse more

buyers than there are listings then we are

in a sellers market, and sellers are in con-

trol given the increased demand and short

supply. This is typically when

we see prices increase.

Wehavebeen inabuyersmar-

ket for over four years now, hav-

ing experienced a flood of prop-

ertiesonto themarketasaresult

of the global financial crisis and

sellers being unable to service

their bonds.

In the past sixmonths though,

we have seen a gradual decrease

in listings, anda strong increase

in thenumberof sales. Stock lev-

els in the SomersetWestmarket

have, for example, dropped by

about 20%according to research

done at Harcourts Platinum.

At the same time weve seen prices begin

to creep upwards not dramatically but at

least there is positive growth. Whilst the ap-

preciation in property values does vary from

area to area, as a general average there seems

to have been an increase of approximately

57% over the past 6 months.

The increase in residential sales activity is

borne out by results from Ooba Mortgage

Originators,whohaveconfirmed that theval-

ue of bonds approved in April 2013 was 30,5%

up over April 2012.

What does all this increased activitymean?

It shows that there is buyer confidence in the

local property market. Significantly, a high

proportion of purchasers are still moving to

the Cape from Gauteng. Strong demand for

local properties will continue to reduce the

number of properties available. The reduc-

tion in supply of listings will allow prices to

continue to appreciate at a slow, but healthy

rate.

One of the reasons for the increase in local

sales volumes is the willingness of the banks

to grant home loan finance.Where a purchas-

er is able to put downadeposit of 10%ormore

the banks have a much greater

appetite for business. Most

banks are averse to high-risk

loans, especiallywhere their ex-

posure is 100% of the purchase

price but they will entertain

applications for low-risk clients

under the R1 500 000 mark.

The recent increase in sales

activity is positive for the local

market, but it should not be tak-

enoutof context.Mostof theglo-

bal economic issues still exist

and in many cases are worsen-

ing. Bankswill remain cautious

in an uncertain world.

None of us can know what the

futurewill bring. It is prudent toproceedwith

soundnessofmindnotover-committingone-

self, and allowing for interest rate increases

into the future. Yet, despite the uncertain

world we live in, its comforting to know our

properties are in demand, properties values

are moving in the right direction, and when

we invest in property locally, our asset is in-

creasinginvalue.Nowisagreat timeto invest

in local real estate.

DaihatsuGranMax:Achallengewithadifference

QUICKPIC

The tough Daihatsu Gran Max

full one-ton pick-up has become

somethingofacargolegendsince

being introduced to theSouthAf-

rican market in 2010.

This feisty workhorse, with its

flat, drop-side load bed, willing per-

formance and impressive economy

is already a firm favourite among

small business owners and corpo-

rate fleets.

But thisweek, theGranMax is be-

ing used for a different challenge: to

transport goods being donated to

charity. Motoring media from

across the country converged on

Gauteng to hand over donations to

CHOC, aswell as the Childrens On-

cology Ward at the Steve Biko Hos-

pital in Pretoria.

TheGranMaxhas become an es-

tablished and admired player in the

one-ton utility market, says Pedro

Pereira, General Manager of

Daihatsu SouthAfrica. Its full one-

ton loadingcapacity, easeofuseand

functionality are key features, but

its also an eager performer, while

its value-added pricing and econo-

my also translate into low running

costs.

The Gran Max is an innovative

workhorse in every respect. Its cab-

forward design maximises the

available load area,while still offer-

ingaspaciouscabinwithseating for

up to three occupants. The load bed

is 2,4 m long and 1,6 m wide, creat-

ing a flat-floored cargo area of more

than 3,7 square metres.

Togetherwithafullone-toncarry-

ing capacity, and drop sides around

the cargo area, the GranMax offers

exceptional functionality.

The gear-lever is located in the

dashboard, close to the steering

wheel, freeing up further legroom

andensuring that theGranMaxcan

accommodate three occupants with

ease.

In terms of safety, the Gran Max

features ABS anti-lock brakes,

crumplezones in front,dualside im-

pactbarsinthedoors,andacollapsi-

ble steering column for frontal im-

pacts.

TheGranMax is poweredbya 1,5-

litre four-cylinderpetrol engine fea-

turing variable valve timing for im-

proved tractability and response at

low revs, without compromising

power output at high revs.

The result is a maximum power

output of 71 kW at 6 000 r/min,

linked to a 134 Nm torque peak. A

full 90 percent of the torque maxi-

mum is already available at just

2 000 r/min

The lowrunning costs of theGran

Max are underscored by its com-

bined-cycle fuel consumptionof just

7,5 litres/100 km.

TheDaihatsuGranMax is offered

in standard and high-spec versions,

with retail pricing of R139 995 and

R149 995 respectively. The price in-

cludes a three-year/100 000 kmwar-

ranty. The feisty Daihatsu Gran Max is a true workhorse.

French flair: Renaults newClio4

FRANS LE ROUX

The French have always been renowned

for doing everything with passion and

flair.Justtakealookatwhentheirrugby

or football teams sing their national an-

them. The flood gates open and tears roll

down the faces of athletic, masculine

men.

This same passion is fortu-

nately for us, carried over to

their car companies as well. De-

signers of Renault have long

been known to push the enve-

lope. They would usually think

thatanextra lineorcrease isper-

fect.Addingmore curves andan-

gular lights is the norm at Re-

nault, and their new Clio is cer-

tainly no different.

Downsizing is themodern day

it-word and from lighter cars,

to smaller cars everything is get-

ting smaller. The new Clios

main talking point is its brand

new 900 cc 3-cylinder turbo en-

gine. Yes, you are not imagining

things, I said a 900 cc 3-cylinder.

Power output is rated at

66 kW/135 Nm. Effectively this

little petrol mill packs the same

punch as a modern day 1.4 4-cyl-

inder. Something one should get

used to is the sound it makes.

Theres a certain growl it makes

that is distinct to a 3-cylinder, a

noise I enjoyedwhilechasing the

red line.

Acceleration is claimed at a

leisurely 12 seconds, while the

top-speed is a safe 180 km/h.

These figures, are also, once again on par

with 1.4s. Fuel consumption is very good,

if one drives normally. You tend to drive the

Clioharder thoughtbecauseof thenoiseand

the lack of a bigger engine, but when you

drive as a civilised human being figures of

around 16 km per litre are achieved. My

weekend averagewas around 13,5 km per li-

tre.

I wasnt at the least bit surprised by Clios

good handling. If you take a look at the

French manufacturers previous models,

prior to thisClio, all of themweregreat little

handlers. Pin-point turn-in allowedme to al-

ways know what the front wheels were do-

ing.Handlingcharacteristics thatwereonce

only destined toRenaults RS/Sportmodels,

have now (to a certain extent) found their

way onto this new Clio. Even rolling on 17

inchrims, the ridewascompliant andenjoy-

able. The interior is a revelation. Every-

thing has been changed and upgraded to ac-

commodateanewcentre consoleand instru-

ment cluster. In my Dynamique model the

dashboard material felt like good quality

soft-touch plastics. I always enjoyed the

black piano veneer inserts around the air-

conditioning vents and the centre console.

At first I felt lost not having a good old CD-

3 year/45 000 km service plan.

The Clio matches up against

seasoned rivals such as the VW

Polo and Ford Fiesta. From a de-

signpointofview, I feel it trumps

them both.

The Polo might have the best

interior but its a rather boring

looking car.

Fords new Ecoboost Fiesta

has a comparative 1.0L 3-cylin-

der turbo engine, almost the

same as the Clio. But once again

I fear that if passion and flair is

the decider when you are pur-

chasing a car, the Clio pulls me

towards its fresh good looks.

The new Fiesta ST is Fords fast-

est and most dynamic small pro-

duction performance car ever,

employing a precision-tuned and

driver-focused powertrain and

chassis todeliver theultimateFi-

esta driving experience.

Developed by Ford Team RS, the

European arm of Ford Motor Com-

panys Global Performance Vehicle

group, the new Fiesta ST is

equipped with a 1.6-litre EcoBoost

petrol engine to achieve 0-100 km/h

in 6.9 seconds and offer 134 kW and

240 Nm of torque. Top speed is 220

km/h. Despite its performance cre-

dentials the Fiesta ST remains fuel

efficient at the pumps, using an av-

erage 5.9 l/100 km and 138 g/km

CO2* on a combined cycle run.

Ford Team RS tuned the power-

train, suspension, steering and

brakes for optimised driving dy-

namics, and introduced featureson-

ly previously found in larger per-

formancecars includingenhanced

torque vectoring control (eTVC)

and three-mode electronic stability

control (ESC), six-speed manual

transmission and rear disc brakes.

ThenewFiestaSTfeaturesa large

trapezoidal grille with a unique

honeycomb construction and dra-

matic rear diffuser element. The re-

fined high-contrast interior is

equipped with Recaro seats, and a

new sound symposer that channels

the engine note to the cabin to en-

sure the distinctive engine roar is

integral to the driving experience.

The Fiesta ST also makes use of

SYNC and MyKey technology

available in other models in the Fi-

esta line-up.

The new Fiesta ST delivers re-

markable levels of performance, de-

sign and quality to offer an unsur-

passed driving experience, says

FordMarketingManagerGavinGo-

lightly. SouthAfricans have an af-

finity for performance and the Fies-

ta ST speaks directly to that pas-

sion.

Enhanced torque vectoring con-

trol (eTVC) applies brake force to

the inside front wheel of the Fiesta

STwhen cornering to improve road

holding and reduce understeer

without affecting speed. New soft-

ware controls the Fiesta STs bal-

ance in response to steering inputs

under acceleration and braking

and electronic stability control

(ESC) offers full system interven-

tion,wide-slipmodewith limited in-

tervention, and full ESC de-activa-

tion.

Both systems support a specially

modified front steering knuckle,

adapted rear twist-beam with in-

creased roll-stiffness, unique front

and rear spring and damper set-

tings, and a 15 mm lower centre of

gravity for optimised handling and

ride quality.

Electronic power assisted steer-

ing (EPAS) offers a sharper steering

ratioof13.69:1andashortersteering

arm for amore direct response. The

new Fiesta ST debuts rear disc

brakes on the Fiesta platform and

introduces a larger tandem brake

master cylinder that boosts braking

performance.

The Fiesta ST is sure to put a

smile on your face. Corner

after corner it delivers ab-

solute precision, says Go-

lightly.

The EcoBoost engines

low weight contributes to-

wards improved handling

and introduces technolo-

gies including turbo-

charging, high-pressure

direct fuel-injection and

Twin-independent Varia-

ble Cam Timing. The

unique engine and a new

six-speed manual trans-

mission calibration were

refinedat theNrburgring

Nordschleife over the

equivalent of more than

100 laps of the 21 km cir-

cuit.

The new Fiesta STs

headlight design incorpo-

rates LED day-time run-

ning lamp technology and

a full ST body kit; new

paint options include Race

Red, Molten Orange and

Spirit Blue. The cabin fea-

tures alloy-metal pedals

and gearshifter, and an ST

steering wheel.

MyKey allows owners to setmaxi-

mumspeed and audio volume limits

and ensures safety features are not

disabled, which is particularly use-

ful foryoungerdrivers.SYNCallows

bilephonesviavoice commandsand

LikeotherFiestamodels theSTof-

fers substantial safety features. this

includes an anti-lock braking sys-

tem (ABS) with electronic brake-

matically varies the amount of force

brakes based on road conditions,

speed and loading tomaximise stop-

sist helps prevent the vehicle from

rolling backwards after the driver

has come to a stop on a slope or an

incline. Safety is also enhancedwith

seven airbags (dual front, side, cur-

tainairbagsanddriverkneeairbag),

earning the Fiesta a five-star Euro-

NCAP safety rating.

The Fiesta ST is available with a

fully comprehensive four-year / 120

000km warranty and four-year / 60

000km service plan. Service inter-

vals are staggered at 20 000 km. Cus-

tomers will also benefit from three

years of roadside assistance and a

five-year corrosion warranty, both

of which are available with unlimit-

ed mileage.
