Angry parents and pupils gathered at Cap- ricorn Primary School last week claiming they had not received any notification about their applications. This is the only primary school in Vry- grond. Parents are now demanding answers from the provincial education department as well as the principal. One parent, who spoke on condition of an- onymity, says she tried to have her child reg- istered at the school for Grade 1. “I applied for my daughter to attend this school as it is a community school. When I applied I was told to come back on two occa- sions and eventually I was told I would re- ceive a letter to tell me if my child was ac- cepted or not,” she says. According to the mother, she was turned away and was told her child is “too active”. “Turning away a child on that observation is totally ridiculous. We want action to be taken because our children need a school they can go to in the community,” she stress- es. A group of parents gathered at the school on Thursday 22 January and voiced their concerns outside the school gates. “The principal refuses to let us in so we can talk to her and get answers. All we heard was that there is no space for our children at this school and we want to know why,” one parent said. The principal could not be reached for comment. Community worker and paralegal practi- tioner Abe Braaf assisted the parents in doc- umenting their concerns. “All of these parents are understandably upset. They need their children to be admit- ted to a school so they may start their school- ing, but this is a sour situation,” he says. According to Braaf he was told by parents their children had to come from Sunrise Ed- ucare if they were to be admitted at Capri- corn Primary. “There is an unwritten rule that the chil- dren have to come from the nearby creche if they are to be accepted at the school. This is not documented in the school’s admission policy,” he adds. Jessica Shelver, spokesperson for provin- cial education minister Debbie Schäfer, ex- plains this rule was in the admission policy two years ago, but because it disadvantaged a large number of pupils the admission poli- cy was amended. “The admission criteria is much broader now and all applications are considered for admission,” Shelver says. Responding to parents complaining about pupils not receiving feedback from the school in time, Shelver says the bulk of en- rolments received at the school is for Grade R. “Registered letters are sent to parents. [This includes] successful as well as unsuc- cessful applicants. This is then followed up with a phone call to successful candidates who do not respond by certain time, in this grade,” she explains. According to Shelver all unsuccessful ap- plicants are put on a waiting list. “All applications for the other grades are put on a waiting list until the school is in a position to determine what spaces will be or become available. “Once this has been done, parents on the waiting list are contacted telephonically and asked to come in to complete the necessary documents.” Parents also claimed their children were not being accepted at the school while chil- dren from surrounding communities were being accepted. “Our children have to suffer because pu- pils from other areas are accepted at this school. Capricorn Primary should be for children from this area.” Shelver says pupils from Vrygrond re- ceive first preference. “All children living in Capricorn get first preference and because the demand from this community is so great, they have not en- rolled any ‘outsiders’ at any time. If there are any, they had given fake or incorrect ad- dresses or lied on the application form which is tantamount to fraud.” Parents also suggested containers should be placed at the school to cater for the large number of pupils. Shelver says infrastructure at the school will not allow for this yet. V What are your thoughts? Starting with the word “Post”, SMS your thoughts to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

Have you ever called your local police sta-tion and requested that a police van as-sist with a crime issue?

Have you ever been told no vehiclewas avail-able?One Cape Town resident has now decided to

tackle this issue.Owen Simons from Lavender Hill has made

a plea to residents across Cape Townwho haveexperienced this to come forward and sharetheir stories.For many years, Simons says, he has often

seen police vehicles stationed at private homesand wondered whether it was allowed.In recent months he has become frustrated

with being told no vehicles were available toattend to a complaint and has kept a record ofhow many times this has happened.“In the last three months I have called my

local station 29 times and only been assisted intwo instances. This was for a shooting and arobbery. In one of these incidents I contactedthe station commander directly and he assist-ed by getting a van out,” he explains.

ProtocolsSimons says the public is not aware of what

the protocols are with the use of police cars.He says his aim is to ascertain how many peo-ple have seen these vehicles parked at privateresidences in their communities and whetheror not others have been told there are no vans.“The main issue is that people do not know

what the protocols are and when officers getauthorisation to take these vehicles home andwhat the conditions are.”Provincial police spokesperson Lieutenant-

Colonel Andrè Traut says the command andcontrol of the vehicle fleet is not “something

that is treated lightly”.He explains rigid regulations and di-

rectives are enforced to ensure that vehi-cles are applied for the intended use.“Due to the fact that policing and the

availability of our personnel at short no-tice are not restricted to office hours, ve-hicles – marked and unmarked – are as-signed to members to keep at their placeof residence on a standby basis.”However, Traut says, obtaining autho-

risation for the use of police vehicles iscompulsory and can only be issued by acommander.

RecordsTraut explains records are kept for

each vehicle and in the case of a disputeor an investigation, the GPS-based track-er, which is fitted to all police vehicles, isused to shed light on thewhereabouts andusage of the vehicle in question.He says the initiative by Simons is wel-

comed by police and should correspondwith police records.“However, if it does not, wewill not hes-

itate to investigate the matter and take ap-propriate action against our members whomisuse State vehicles,” Traut adds.

ResourcesSimonshas raised several questions about

the availability of resources and the usethereof.While living in a “high crime” area, he

says, not being able to get a vehicle to re-spond to a call is a concern.“The question is if they keep saying they

don’t have resources or vehicles, then whyare there vehicles parked at private homesovernight not being used.”Asked whether there were enough vehi-

cles, Traut says: “Western Cape police havea sufficient number of vehicles to police theprovince effectively and the vehicles as-signed for after hours garaging at the resi-dence of members are not the ones utilisedfor attending complaints and policing by the24-hour shifts”.V If you would like to provide Simons with informationabout police vehicles call 079 955 5335 or email [email protected].

In a bid to slow down motorists and pre-vent accidents, the Protea Subcouncil hasapproved the recommendation for speed

humps to be placed along School Way in Re-treat.Residents and the principal of SquareHill

Primary sent requests to ward councillorJan Burger to have these traffic calmingmeasures implemented.Resident Kim Crowie sent an email to

Burgermotivating the need for traffic calm-ing and listing her concerns.She is concerned for the safety of the pu-

pils who use the road to gain access to theschool.“I have noticed over the past couple of

months that taxis have been using SchoolWay to bypass the robots at the corner ofConcert Boulevard and Allenby Drive. Thisis putting the lives of our children at riskas these drivers rush down this road, espe-cially during the morning,” Crowie says.She explains the morning rush is where

taxis speed down the road to drop passen-gers at the station.

They rush back down the same road topick up more passengers.“We have had numerous accidents with

pupils being knocked due to their negli-gence,” she adds.Crowie requested two speed humps be

placed along the road.She adds even though Square Hill Prima-

ry has a scholar patrol at the BoundaryRoad entrance, more children make use ofthe School Way entrance.In her request, Square Hill Primary

School principal Lavinia Davis says thesafety of pupils is being compromised daily.“We have a high volume of traffic using

this road at unacceptable speeds. The safetyof our pupils is compromised daily,” Davissays, adding she is desperate to improve thetraffic situation at the school.Burger motivated the need for traffic

calming measures are needed and the mo-tion was approved.The motion will now be sent to the City

of Cape Town’s transport department for afinal decision.V To what degree do you think pupils are at risk whenusing this road? Starting with the word “Post”, SMSyour views to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

that may be following you. Check yourdriveway and street.“Stop your vehicle just inside the gate

and select reverse gear while waiting forthe gate to close behind you.”McMaster also offers the following addi-

tional safety tips: “If approached by astranger while in your vehicle, drive off, ifpossible, or use your hooter to attract atten-tion; “Lock your doors, close yourwindowsand do not have bags or briefcases visiblein the vehiclewhile driving; “Be constantlyon the lookout for suspicious characters orvehicles and do not hesitate to report themto the South African Police Service;

Plans to have a traffic centre are on holdjust a little longer as contractors are ex-pected to complete work in June.

The new centrewill be housed in a proper-ty owned by theCity of CapeTownat the footof Boyes Drive near Zandvlei.Councillors from the South Peninsula

Subcouncil commented on the completion ofthe centre at themonthlymeetingheld at thechambers last week. The subcouncil area al-so includes Strandfontein and parts of Rock-lands.They questioned a report on building

works, stating they needed an update aboutwhy work had still not been complete.Ward councillor Simon Liell-Cock said he

was concerned as the new centre wasaimed at bringing Traffic Services closerand improving their presence in the FarSouth.He further explained a substantial

amount of ward allocation funding had beenput into the project by councillors and it wasunacceptable that traffic officers could onlyuse the building for lunch and bathroombreaks.Muizenberg ward councillor Dave D’Al-

ton told those present he had been informedthat the line department had run out offunds.According to City executive director for

Safety and Security, Richard Bosman, itwas the intention of the South PeninsulaSubcouncil to restore the heritage siteand turn it into a user-friendly TrafficServices deployment centre for the FarSouth.He explains, at this stage, the project cost

is R3m.Bosman says the site was handed over in

September 2013 and estimates work will becompleted in June.“The subcouncil allocated funds for the

project. However, the funding did not coverthe entire project and currently Cape TownTraffic Services is funding the remainder ofthe project in order for the facility to be fullyfunctional,” he says.

Bosman also says traffic officers are notable to work in the building at this time ascontractors are still on site.V What are your thoughts? Starting with the word“Post”, SMS your views to 32516. SMSes cost R1.

The United Homeless People Develop-ment Association (UHPDA) has sub-mitted a development proposal to the

Rondevlei subcouncil.The report was tabled at the monthly sub-

council meeting on Thursday 22 January.The organisation has requested the supportfrom the subcouncil to allow them to occupythree properties owned by the City of CapeTown.People’s Post previously reported on the

organisation’s threats to occupy City land(“Housing on the horizon”, People’s Post, 21October).UHPDA chairperson Howard Soetwater

says after exploring all his options andspeaking to threeward councillors, he set upa formal proposal.“I spoke to councillors Shanen Rossouw,

Jan Burger and Marita Petersen. They lis-tened to our plight and suggested that I cometo them with a formal proposal,” Soetwatersays.In the proposal, the three properties iden-

tified by the organisation are located inwards 68, 72 and 110. They are situated in

Nectar Road in Steenberg, a vacant plot be-hind Crestway High School and another inPeter Charles Street in Cafda Village.Soetwater says UHPDA hopes to have two

of the three sites developed.“Wewant to have two sites developedwith

formal structures including ablution facili-ties. The last site may contain informalstructures,” he says.Soetwater says the organisation caters for

backyard dwellers who have been living ininformal structures in the greater Retreatareas. “We have a real need for housing andtheorganisationhopes toprovide somethingconcrete for our backyard dwellers. Withthis formal proposal we hope to get the ballrolling faster,” Soetwater says.He adds the funding for the development

of the sites will be aided by donations.“We hope to get funding fromward alloca-

tions as well but in the interim we rely ondonations. We are also planning a few fun-draisers in the community,” Soetwater says.Rondevlei subcouncil agreed that the pro-

posal received from UHPDA will be adoptedand will remain on their agenda on the mat-ters receiving attention report.V What are your thoughts? SMS your views to 32516.SMSes cost R1.

Call to curb copper thievesCopper theft acrossCapeTown is on the riseand authorities are calling on residents tobe vigilant.According to a statement by the City of

Cape Town, a recent report has shown thatthe associated costs of metal theft has risenfrom R10m to R13.5m.The City’s Water and Sanitation Depart-

menthas compileda report documentingalldepartmental property lost as a result ofmetals theft between January 2012 and De-cember 2014.The statement sayswhile the rise “hasnot

been pronounced”, the level of theft issteadily divertingmore andmore resourcesaway from far worthier causes.The report tracked the theft of water me-

ters, meter covers, fire hydrant covers,valve covers and manhole covers.Ernest Sonnenberg, City Mayoral Com-

mitteeMember forUtility Services, says thesituation is frustrating and thieves shownoregard for the effects their behaviourhas on

the community. “Not only does metal theftoften result in disruptions to the water sup-ply, but it diverts funds away fromessentialmaintenance projects and upgrades,” hesays.The City says there has been a dramatic

increase in the number of stolen manholecovers.“Not only are these expensive to replace,

but when left unreported they can be oneof the main causes of sewer blockages, astheir absence allows inappropriate materi-als to accumulate in the system.The City is now calling on residents to re-

port suspicious and illegal activity as wellas any information which could lead to thecapture of the perpetrator, or scrapyardsknown to be dealing in stolen metals.V To report illegal activity call the City’s Metals TheftUnit’s hotline on 0800 222 771. To report missingdrain covers call 0860 103 089 or send an SMS withlocation of the problem and a short description to31373 (maximum 160 characters).

Jan Burger. Mr Jan Burger has done a job well.

Thank you for your service and hardwork. – Mrs Sterris. We wish Mr Jan Burger a well-earnedretirement. Thanks for always beingthere for us. Best wishes from the Capesfamily.. Jan Burger, may you have good healthin your retirement. Thank you foralways assisting when I needed advice.Ons het lekker g*t geskop. Aan die watdink hul weet alles... Cheers. – Maritz. Jan Burger stepping down. What apleasure it has been to have had himaround as our councillor in the Elfindalearea. Whenever I had a request or query,he always assisted and as a member ofthe community, I would like to thankhim for the time he had afforded us. Ifanything was communicated to him, forexample, matters for his attention, hewould always be grateful and say “keepyour eyes peeled”. I sincerely hope thatwhoever is elected to fill his shoes willdo so with the same energy and enthusi-

asm. To Mr Burger, I do hope you willtake things easy during your retirementand enjoy the time spent with yourfamily. – Carol Thomas

General. [I am] shocked and sad about theincident (“Burglars set workshop alight”,People’s Post, 20 January). Mr Kuhn is apillar in this community for many years.The guilty must be brought to justice.. If security is of utmost concern, whywas the problem of the fence and thesubsequent vandalism not addressed inSeptember when you were first madeaware of the problem? (“Railway inruins”, People’s Post, 20 January) Whywait five months? Clearly this area is nota priority.. I believe help is on the way for theAbundant Life Feeding Scheme. As wehave been listening to continuousgunshots in our area, I have every timesaid “thank you, Lord” for doors that aregoing to open for us this year. Morechildren fall victim to gang violence andit is not because they want be gangsters,but because they are being fed andclothed by the gang leaders. Is this notironic? We just sit back and curse and let

it be. I am here to make a difference inmy community and I believe it startswith our children. Times are tough andgovernment sits back. Please help mefeed starving children and keep them offthe dangerous streets where bullets areraining down on them. – Marlene Sata-rien

Hookah pipes. Anybody can smoke anything, but do

not make me inhale it. Cigarettes,hookah or any form of smoke must belooked at and be contained in a specificarea to not affect the non-smoker. Thehookah pipe is an introduction to smok-ing and trying various mixes of othersubstances in the future. All the tobacco-related incidences at hospital just eats onthe government and that is actually yourtax money. – Bad lungs

. I think children should be protected.I have seen in the township where I live,children who use hookah pipes at a laterstage think much slower than a childwho does not use hookah pipes.

. I am a hookah pipe smoker and so ismy brother and my friends. We do notsee why people have a problem with ussmoking hookah pipes.

Realise a dream for allFor most of us it has been a time toreflect, take stock and make resolutionsto achieve outstanding matters in 2015.We all have dreams of a better life, ourwishes becoming a reality and findingthe pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.For many this is just a repeat of 2014; thesame wishes, resolutions and dreams.We must break free from the one-mind-

ed dream and wish, and let it become the‘us’ dream, the ‘us’ wish and the ‘us‘resolution.When we start to include others, others

will include [us].Our purpose revolves around our fellow

man – the homeless, the destitute, theafflicted and the aged.Let 2015 be the year of contribution;

contribution towards the development,upliftment and betterment of our commu-nities.Let us unite in our fight against crime,

gangsterism and all the social ills thatplague our communities. Let us uniteagainst unjust systems, ungodly behav-iours and bring to book the wolves insheep clothes, who are tasked to deliversocial services to our communities forwhich they are paid.We call upon community leaders,

religious leaders and all those who wantto contribute and give input towards thebetterment of our communities, take eachother by the hand and to unite across theboundaries, learn from each other andshare in the responsibility of the commongoal.Collectively we can achieve much,

dream big and with the help of theAlmighty realise our wishes for 2015.“It always seems impossible to do, until

it is done.” – Nelson MandelaPastor Paul and Mary Phillips, Park-wood Estate

All to fight crimeWe are barely into the New Year, yetcrime is rampant countrywide.Though personal safety cannot be 100%

guaranteed, individuals can apply safetymeasures to reduce crime.Be vigilant of your surrounds, whether

at home, school, workplace, cafe, restau-rant, shopping centre, petrol station,parking area or play park.Be aware of possible danger or threats,

or people who look or act suspicious(without being paranoid).Listen to your intuition.Individuals and businesses should

continuously upgrade their safety meas-ures and the police should use theirresources effectively to apprehendcriminals.Every South African should make a

positive contribution towards fightingcrime.

JOHAN ALBERTSTranslated from Die Burger

Helicopter rescues, dodging flying bullets and facing in-fernos.These may sound like scenes from the movies, but

these feats make up the average day for many of our emer-gency services crew.Each day, firefighters, police officers, paramedics and

emergency rescue crew put their lives on the line to saveothers. And these acts of bravery are seldom noted or re-warded by the communities they serve.Even more deserving of our thanks are volunteers from

charitable organisations who respond in emergencies.The National Sea Rescue Institute, which runs off the

hardworkandgooddeeds of over 900unpaid crewmembers;Western Province Lifesavers tirelessly patrol our beaches,keeping swimmers safe, and the Volunteer Wildfire Servi-ces –made up of 180 volunteers whowork closely with otheremergency service organisations to extinguish wild fires –are just some of these.Organisations such as these, as well as essential services

such as firefighters, police and paramedics, need our help.And while we may not all be highly trained emergency

crew, there are numerous ways in which we can lend ahand.Funding is always in short supply for rescue volunteer

organisations, and donations from the public ensure theyare able to deliver vital services. If you don’t have the mon-ey to give, donate your time by volunteering.But supporting these volunteers doesn’t stop there – pre-

pare yourself, your home and your family for emergencysituations. This includes everything from attending firstaid courses to educating yourself on how to respond in anemergency – what numbers to call, what information to re-port andhow to assist those aroundyouuntil the emergencyservice crews arrive. This information not only makes thechallenging job of the emergency crew easier, but in ex-treme cases could save a life. And it could be yours.

STANLEY JUNE:

More than meets the eyeLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

Johannesburg-based singer Stanley Junedoes more than just imitate art.

Stanley describes himself as an “ordi-nary next-door guy” who likes making mu-sic and performing, but when it comes to mu-sic, he’s an all-round creative. Besides writ-ing and performing his own songs, he alsoproduces his own music videos, creates hisown album art and runs a studio where herecords and produces his own music.People’s Post caught up with him while he

was touring Cape Town recently.“I love the entire process of just putting

everything together, working from the start-ing point to the finished product,” he says.

Like other artists, he isn’t always happywith the end product, but knows that the mu-sic will lose its intimacy if he keeps hammer-ing away at it.

This is Stanley’s third Cape Town tour andhe says this trip in particular was “excep-tionally great”. He had the opportunity toplay at venues like Die Boer in Durbanvilleand the Barleycorn Music Club in Clare-mont, where he played to an audience of “lis-teners” instead of a drunken crowd who hap-pen to throw an ear to the stage every nowand then.

“People really sat down and all their atten-tion was focused towards the stage.” Stanleysays the response he received was positiveand he feels he had more of a connectionwith Cape Town audiences this time round.

Stanley’s music is heavily influenced byclassic rock. “I’ve always loved the oldschool, rock ’n roll with loud guitars andscreaming vocals.”

But there’s also a softer, more dynamicside to his music.

Being an independent artist, Stanley sayshe doesn’t have access to mainstream stores,

but despite this his debut album, ImitatingArt, which was released in 2013, is doing wellthrough online platforms.

He is currently working on a follow-up al-bum which he hopes to release by the endof the year.

“I’ve learnt so much in this year of per-forming that I think I’ll take an entirely dif-ferent approach to the new album.”

Instead of producing music with a com-mercial market or radio in mind, Stanleysays fans can expect his next release to bemore guitar-driven with more instrumen-tals.

Also on his “to-do” list is another CapeTown tour this year, but for now fans canvisit www.stanleyjune.com or www.face-book.com/StanleyJuneMusic to stay up todate with what Stanley is up to.V Stanley June appeared on SABC 3’s Expresso showwhile he was in Cape Town.

GOSPEL

Music ministry their missionLOUISA STEYL

@LouNotes

With their brand new album and end-less supply of positivity, Glo Wors-hip Band is on a mission to sing the

truth.The group started out as a church band,

doing outreaches that just got bigger over ti-me and as their ministries evolved, so didthebandand their goals. Theband’s unusualname, which is pronounced as “glow”, wasthought up by band member Pierre Schoe-man’s wife. “It’s got to do with light and thatweare the light of theworld,which the scrip-ture tells us.”They’re not sure why they dropped the

“w”, but it happened tomake the nameworkwell in English and Afrikaans.Glo launched their debut album, Sons of

God, at Jamrock Theatre in Brackenfell lastweekend.

Love music“All of us kind of had it in our heart to re-

cord an album somewhere along the line,”explains Roedie Nortier, but it was onlywhen their pastor suggested their materialwas good enough to record that they startedseriously considering it.They experimented with recording at

church, but in the end their album was pro-duced by Gideon Murray from Katalyst Stu-

dios.“One thing we all have in common is that

we’ve lovedmusic since wewere little,”Wil-liam Loedolff says of his fellow band mem-bers. They’ve also asked the Lord to usethem since they were little.With this inmind,William points out that

while a lot of Gospel music is beautiful, Gloask: “Is it beautiful to God, too?”

Write own songs“Many songs that people write misunder-

stand God’s love for people,” he says, addingpeople sing about personal experiences, likebeing far fromGod, instead ofwhat theWordsays. “It’s not necessarily the truth.”This concept changed the band’s view on

music, shifting their focus from melody tolyrics, which are written with the idea of lis-teners singing along.“Having people sing along to a CD ismuch

easier than getting them to sing in church,”says Elmi Nortier.The album has given them away to get pe-

ople to singpositive things about themselvesin a fun way. “They don’t even realise it butthey are putting their lives in order by sin-ging with us.”The idea of singing the truth also led Glo

to the realization that thereweren’t veryma-ny songs they could use, so they had to writetheir own. This job fell mostly to Williamwho wrote most of the tracks on the album.

The music has elements of rock and folk,but unpretentious and simple, making theiruplifting lyrics easy to sing along to.

Afrikaans singleRather than being known as just a band,

Glo is a movement. Together with PastorLood Spies, the group runs aministry calledMach C. They want to help worshippers and

songwriters do what they do.While the album is English, the band is al-

so busy sampling an Afrikaans single, Dit isGedoen, to stations across the country.Sons of God is available throughNueLight

Productions and can be ordered by [email protected] Visit the Glo Worship Ministries Facebook page formore on the band and upcoming shows.

SUBARU

Outback rejuvenatedSubaru is launching its fifth-generation

Outbackwith ahost of upgrades that in-clude new styling, more space, better

interior and more safety equipment.Subaru South Africa has already con-

firmed theOutbackwill arrive here towardsthe end of March, with the new Legacy alsoappearing at a similar time, if not slightlyearlier.“We will have the 2.5F petrol, 3.6F petrol

and the 2F diesel – all with CVT available.The range will be in premium guise only,meaning only threemodels in the line-up forSA,” says Subaru South Africa.The Outback was introduced in 1995 and

has since claimed to be “the first crossover”that spawned awhole range of copy-catmod-els. Nevertheless, the automaker says, theOutback has continued to combine the vir-tues of a tourer with those of a SUV.Second pair of eyesThe automaker adds that the new model

will remain in the same price bracket as theoutgoing version in the UK (the equivalentof R479 500 to R565 200), “despite a generousstandard specification”.New to the latest model is EyeSight, Suba-

ru’s collision-avoidance technology.The system is said to work “as a second

pair of eyes” for drivers through stereo col-our camera technology which sweeps theroad and traffic ahead for hazards.This, claims the company, is the first time

the technology has been made available inthe UK and Europe.EyeSight is standard on ‘auto’ transmis-

sion units and includes autonomous pre-col-lision braking control and pre-collisionthrottle management, adaptive cruise con-trol and lane-departure and trailer-swaywarning.EnginesTwoengines are available in theUK– each

a horizontally-opposed four-cylinder:there’s a 2F turbodiesel that makes 110kW/350Nm or a normal 2.5F petrol tuned for121kW/235Nm.Diesel units will be offered with either a

six-speed manual gearbox or Subaru’s Line-artronic (constantly variable) transmission;2.5F petrol units come only with the latter.The nose has an hexagonal grille and

“hawk-eye”headlights; theprofile is a subtleevolution of the current Outback.The cabin is said to be more spacious and

furnished with “higher quality” materialsthat result in a much more premium cabincomplemented by a new range of factory-fit-ted infotainment and satnav systems.SpecificationsThere are two trim levels: SE and SE Pre-

mium. Each, Subaru says, offers a generouslevel of equipment.SEmodels can be identified by their diode

headlights (with washers), cruise control,“active torque vectoring”, 17” alloy rims,heatable front seats, power adjustment forthe driver’s seat, and privacy glass.There is also a seven-inch touchscreen in-

fotainment system with satnav, audio,

smartphone connectivity and a rear-viewparking camera.Petrol SE models add engine stop/go sys-

tem and “intelligent drive” – driver-selectedengine modes for differing terrain.SE Premium models add a sunroof, key-

less entry and start button, 18” alloy rims,leather upholstery and a powered tail hatch.– Wheels24.co.za

FINANCE

Trim your car budgetThis year is going to hold a few shocks

for households.Finance Minister Nhlanhla Nene has

already raised the prospect of taxation in-creases and there are likely to be othersqueezes from consumer price inflation andinterest rates.

One of the good pieces of news is interna-tional petroleum pricing, which hasdropped by a wide margin in the past threemonths.

Predicting where it might go is difficult –even the oil-producing nations don’ seem toknow, but if the price continues to slide andthe Rand/US dollar exchange rate holdssteady, prices at the pumps could drop outof the teens by February.

But let’s not bank on it – fuel prices arefickle and the exchange rate is volatile, andwe’ve seen in the past how quickly a turn-around can happen in either direction.Ac-cording to the Automobile Association (AA)trimming your motoring budget in 2015 willtake a bit more than betting on the fuel price,but it’s possible, and here’s how:

The first priority is your choice of vehicle.If you’re buying a different car in the hopeof saving fuel, do some calculations. If youtravel the average of 25 000 km a year, a car

which uses seven litres per 100 km will costyou around R91 000 in fuel over the typicalfour-year financing period. A car which usessix litres per 100 kilometres will use R78 000of fuel over the same period at today’s prices.But if the more economical car costs R50 000extra, you’re still R37 000 worse off over fouryears. The fuel price would have to nearlydouble over the financing period just for youto break even, which is unlikely if one exam-ines the history of the fuel price in the pasttwo decades.

So maybe you are better off overall withthe less economical vehicle, especially if youare buying up to a larger model. Of course,if you are spending extra money for otherreasons like comfort, safety and technology,those arguments fall away, but with manymotorists looking to change vehicles for rea-sons of economy alone, it’s worth taking along-term look at your fuel costs versus thedifference in purchase price.

Servicing is one area that motorists oftenneglect when money is short, particularly iftheir vehicle doesn’t have a service or main-tenance plan. But the hard-wearing maximof spending a little to save a lot definitelystill applies. A wheel alignment check maycost you around R300, but if it allows you to

get an extra 10 000 km from your tyres,you’ve made your money back a few timesover.

Proper wheel alignment also makes yourcar more pleasant to drive and ensures itwill deliver top braking and steering per-formance if you’re faced with an emergency.

Some of the simplest money-savers costnothing at all, like checking your tyres.

It takes no more than five minutes tocheck that your vehicle’s tyres are correctlyinflated, and if you perform this simplecheck every ten days or so, you not only ex-tend the life of your tyres and ensure saferoadholding, you also reduce your fuel con-sumption. Under-inflated tyres have in-creased rolling resistance, meaning you usemore fuel to maintain the same speed thanyou would with correctly-inflated tyres.

Planning your journeys more carefullycan also save you fuel. Many South Africansmake separate journeys for chores like col-lecting the kids from school, filling up withfuel and shopping. Next time you turn thekey, ask yourself whether you could com-bine several short journeys into a singleround trip. Every kilometre you don’t haveto drive saves you about 90 cents in fuel ina medium-sized car. Driving just ten kilome-

tres less a week will save you around R40 amonth, or nearly R500 a year. Your drivingstyle can have an even bigger impact.

While it’s nearly impossible for the every-day driver to save 40% to 50% on fuel as onesees on the economy contests, a 10% to 20%percent saving is well within your grasp. Ifyou avoid using full power regularly andchange to higher gears earlier, you are al-ready on your way to substantial savings.Look further ahead in traffic to anticipatetraffic lights changing to green to preventunnecessary stops.

An AA study done in the 1980s showed thatstopping four times per kilometre in a 60km/h zone can double your fuel consumption.Just think: a 10% drop in your fuel bill couldsave you over R2 200 a year. The best wayto monitor your fuel consumption is to keepa logbook. Many drivers already do this fortax purposes, and it’s also an early warningsystem - if your car’s fuel consumptionshows an unexplained rise with the samedriving patterns, there may be a mechanicalproblem which you can address before itcosts you too much in fuel.If you take a seri-ous look at ways to cut your motoring costs,the amount of money you could be savingmay come as a pleasant surprise.

According to www.wheels24.co.za, Suzuki has launched a budget hatchback, the Celerio, inSouth Africa at the expense of its cute little Alto range. So, Suzuki now has two sub-R130000 cars – the Celerio and the Splash, the latter launched in 2014. With two similarvehicles sporting minor differences in tech, power and kit, Suzuki hopes to cast its net wideto capture buyers in the fierce A-AB segment.

Big Walk announces big dealOrganisers of the annual 10 km Big

Walk made a major announcement re-garding its title sponsorship in Lands-

downe on 21 January.The Willowton Group has supported the

Big Walk since 2012 via one of its brands,Sunshine D. The 2015 Big Walk will now in-corporate this leading national brand in thetitle of the event and it will now be knownas the Sunfoil 10km Big Walk. The present-ing sponsor is Polar Ice Cream.“The BigWalk has always been sponsored

by companies in our own community. Thishas never changed because the WillowtonGroup continues to have its roots in SouthAfrican communities,” says Dawood Esack,chairperson of the BigWalk Executive Com-mittee (Exco). “It is also an indication thatthe Big Walk, as a successful communityevent, has gained the confidence of the spon-sor.
