A DARK FUTURE
FOR DIESEL?
ts not a good issue for diesel-philes, this one. Its almost completely
devoid of oilers, save for Mr Moores report from the launch of the new
Mercedes-Benz C-Class and Mr Owens ramblings around Victoria in a
diesel Territory. At the launch of the new Nissan X-Trail this month, some
noters tut-tutted the lack of a diesel variant in the new line-up but, as
Nissan NZ revealed, so few buyers opted for it previously that it wasnt
worth offering again. And with a diesels price premium, the extra registration,
licensing and servicing costs, and the absurdity of road user charges in this
country, you have to be covering serious kilometres before a diesel starts
making any return on investment. In more progressive nations where
motoring taxation favours vehicles with lower emissions and consumption,
diesels still have a more relevant role to play as buyers have an actual
incentive to choose an economical diesel car. But the tightening of legislation
around emissions poses a problem for compression ignition technology.
So is diesel a dead duck as some have predicted? Not so according to
an interview with GMs Executive Director of Global Diesel Powertrains,
Pierpaolo Antonioli, published on the SAE website recently. With tougher
emissions standards comes the need for expensive exhaust clean-up
technology on diesel engines but Antonioli says diesels greater efciency
over petrol will ensure its survival.
More stringent Euro6 emissions standards come into force from late 2015
in Europe, with a second phase due in 2018, which will bring the European
testing regime in line with the US test cycle. These place more emphasis on
higher load running, and are therefore tougher tests to beat. As diesels become
more efcient, NOx production and other nasty particulates also increase.
So while diesels easily meet the CO2 emissions requirements, they require
more complex combustion control and clean-up methods like exhaust gas
recirculation, NOx traps and urea catalysers to reduce those more harmful
emissions. And they all add to the bottom-line cost.
As petrol engines adopt diesel-like injection and turbocharger systems
to chase a leaner burn for reduced consumption, they too start to produce
more particulates that also require sorting by way of dual injection setups and particulate traps, and this will see petrol engine costs also rise.
Eventually the price discrepancy between the two engine types will reduce.
Antonioli says while engineers have to work on many different aspects of
a petrol engine to reduce its consumption, a diesels inherent efciency
means bofns can focus instead on driving down the cost of the clean-up
systems while also turning their attention to reducing friction, as diesels
have more to gain on this front. Improvements in lubricant technology will
also help with servicing intervals and costs.
Antonioli predicts that diesel will continue to play a key role in helping
automakers meet tougher emissions levels until 2025, when proposed
legislation will make it all but impossible for a conventional engine to
comply without the help of some form of electrication.
So while diesels will be around for years to come yet, until the ridiculous
RUC system is sorted and replaced by an incentive, rather than a hindrance
to buy and operate fuel efcient diesels, local distributors will continue to
leave these types of engines out of their line-ups.

offensive ROLLS ON
WITH an R&D budget that rivals the GDP
of some countries, Volkswagen is said to be
readying more fuel efcient petrol engines,
utilising electro-mechanical assistance for
forced induction, and variable compression
ratio technology. Coasting, where the
transmission disengages from the engine
on a dead throttle, will also be increasingly
utilised, eg, when travelling down hill or
approaching red lights. Electrically assisted
forced-induction utilises an electric motor
to spin the turbo to high speed and it can
then force air into an engine at low revs,
reducing or eliminating lag and allowing
torque production virtually from idle.
IN further VW news, engineers are
understood to be developing a front-drive
super-GTI with an engine delivering about
224kW, and also a piping hot Golf R Evo
with power boosted from 221 to around
276kW, and torque of 450Nm.
VW is wanting to usurp Seats recent setting
of a new front-wheel-drive record at the
Nordschleife using a Leon Cupra hatch.
It completed the Ring run in 7min and
58.44sec. The more potent super-GTI
uses a Haldex clutch up front, like the GTI
Performance model which went on sale
here recently.

Kia focused on improving the Carnivals

while also improving driving dynamics and
adding a more premium feel to the interior.
The exterior is said to transcend mundane
functionality though its still fairly boxy. The
Carnival rides on a new chassis with a 40mm

Panel Vans:
When these covered-in utes rst appeared in the early 1970s,
they were intended for tradesmen, and some were assigned
to police canine units. However they were also embraced by
young drivers attracted by the potential of the vehicles to provide
mobile make-out rooms. As the genre evolved, simple and frugal
powertrains were replaced by muscular performance V8s, and
the panels began to be decorated in psychedelic graphics and
murals, with some even applied by the factory. By the late 1970s,
panel vans like the Ford Sun Downer, the Holden Sandman, and
the Chrysler Drifter could no longer be classied as commercial
vehicles. They were mobile works of art, possessing similar
performance to the muscle cars that formed the basis of Bathurst
campaigns. With their loud V8s and garish liveries representing
mating calls for Australias hormone-enriched youth, panel vans
became the vehicles of choice for taking dates to drive-in movies
or isolated beachside carparks. The ability to carry a surfboard
was often used as the ofcial excuse for owning one. However
Holden soon knew what application the panel van was primarily
used for during those golden years spanning the availability of
20
the pill and the advent of Aids. If you ticked every accessory box
for a Sandman, the company gave the buyer a free mattress,
covered in a rich velvet fabric and embroidered with the
Sandman logo. A responsible marketing move would have been
to offer a years supply of branded condoms as well, but Holden
declined the opportunity.
Utes:
We all know the story of the farmers wife from Chewton, Victoria,
who wrote to the head of Ford Australia asking for a vehicle that
could carry her and her husband to church on Sunday, and then
the pigs to market on Monday. Ford responded with a Model
A-based ute. Over the years, Aussie car-based utes evolved into
performance machines, offering on-road performance that no
pickup truck could match. Thats still true today, despite the
genre falling from favour on this side of the Tasman. An Aussie
rear-drive ute still gives the opportunity to cart something like a
dirt-bike in something that drives like a sportscar.

The
SOUNDS
and SMELLS are what make it
e might have made a less than stellar start to
his title defence on the track, but Sebastian
Vettels tongue has been running red hot. The
four-time champ summed up, rather perfectly
I feel, the aural quality of the new Formula
One cars; Its shit, thats my opinion. I think
Formula One has to be spectacular and the sound is one
of the most important things.
Sebs team might not know how to put on a wheel
properly (at least on his teammates car) but Red Bulls
refusal to censure its drivers has ensured at least something
worth listening to in F1 this season.
I applaud the steps taken to make F1 more efcient.
The technology being used is utterly impressive; the
tone however is akin to automotive atulence. Im not
criticising the volume either, the reduction in noise
is a legitimate health bonus.
My concern is the tone, and heres why: F1 cars are
still some 40dB louder than a V8 Supercar. But despite
producing half the revs, and from my calculations 16 times
less noise, friends who were trackside in Melbourne told
me how much better the Supercars sounded.
Really Bernie, how hard can it be? Just today I pushed
the Sport button on the Skoda Octavia RS Im driving, and
instantly there was a gruff resonance piped into the cockpit.
I know it was synthetic, and I dont care it made me smile,
and it sounded faster. Whatever it takes to recreate some of
that emotive sound in F1, just hurry up and do it.
While the F1 pack was droning around the Bahrain
International Circuit, New Zealand was playing host to a
far sweeter sounding (and smelling) world championship.
Speedway Grand Prix is about as pure as motorsport gets,
even a go-kart has more technology. There are no brakes,
no rear suspension and no gears. Simply put, the bikes are
made only to go.and go sideways.

EIGHT Talkin
Its the eights that dene these two. And though
similar in cylinder count and displacement, they
go about breeding horses differently. The HSV
uses GMs LSA, a 6.2-litre pushrod small block
with a twin-rotor, 1.9-litre supercharger sitting
in its valley to create a stampede of ponies and
a torrent of torque. With just 16 breathing holes,
the old ohv design hampers its ability to really
rev and so the LSA is all done by 6200rpm. The
Edition 507s 6.2-litre eight is full of exotic alloys
(see sidebar for details) and its hand-nished to
exacting tolerances by a mechanical zealot. With
32-valves, variable valve timing and a variable
inlet manifold, it revs like a race car. It grunts
from right down low too, kicking on at 3000rpm
to spin right round to 7200pm. It has a sweet
linear pull with that naturally aspirated purity to
its throttle response.
The GTSs forced eight is fairly docile below three,
the torque delivery tuned to develop gradually
rather than arriving in a tidal surge of tyre smoking
rage. But once 3000 is on the dial, it goes feral until
the limiter cuts in hard. The LSA is quite deceptive in
its delivery. The HSV doesnt feel as fast as the AMG
but its quicker over the 80-120km/h run, and the
in-gear pull leaves the C 63 in its wake. The AMG proved quicker from
whoa to 100 on this particular day with a 4.23sec pass, and while weve
recorded a 4.13sec run for the GTS, this time the best we could manage
was a 4.26sec blitz. The GTS can really haul, and with so much torque,
it doesnt need to rev as hard or race through the gears like the AMG to
get gone. But the character of a free revving, naturally aspirated engine
is hard to top, especially when its combined with a decent amount of
cubes. The throttle response, the heady rev ceiling, the induction and
exhaust note unsullied by turbos, this engine will be missed.

NO
SLUSH
HERE
Even though the
C 63 is tted with
an auto as standard,
none of the M156s
charm is lost thanks to
AMGs 7-speed MCT (Multi
Clutch Technology) box. Its an
otherwise conventional auto with
an arrangement of planetary gears
and clutches but it delivers a more direct
response thanks to its electronically controlled
wet start-up clutch. It replaces the usual torque
convertor, providing a direct, locked-up link
to the engine so theres no slush or slip. It also
allows for a genuine launch control function
too. It gets an extra ECU, the AMG Drive Unit,
which co-ordinates the engine and the gearbox.
The system will momentarily interrupt the
ignition to help initiate a faster change, with
shifts requiring just 100 milliseconds. It also
has computer-controlled double declutching,
allowing it to skip gearsets for more rapid
kickdown and can drop directly from seventh
down to fourth for instance.

TIGHTENING
THE CURVE
advantages, real steering being one of them. The HSV has a much
more pliant ride, even when its variable magnetic dampers are dialled
up to their stiffest setting, and you neednt worry about the bumps.
This does lead to more lean, which can be seen in the photos, and
the steering is not as incisive, feelsome, or as well weighted. The
bigger GTS just doesnt turn-in with the same zeal as the C 63, but it
matches it for grip and beats it for power-on traction thanks to the
TV. Both give their best in ESC Sport mode to gear down the traction
control. Both have feelsome rear ends that give a sense of when they
are about to start shufing wide and the stability systems give you
about a quarter turn of opposite lock before coming in to nip the
slide, and all before you cross that centre line on a sighted bend.
Vitally, neither car drives itself with care required to brake them
neatly, turn them in and then re them off the curve. Both have good
stoppers, the AMG with the more delicate pedal feel, but the GTS can
haul up smartly when need be. It also has torque vectoring, which
allows it to hang in with the more nimble C. The TV is most effective
in more open corners than the tight stuff, where the AMG has more
glue, but get it working, and the stability aid tightens the big
HSVs line and helps get the power down earlier too. Its like
the GTS has twice as much grip and traction.

In the END
It really doesnt matter which one you choose, as both are
emotive powerhouses that genuinely engage and excite.
The C 63 is more honed, if a little too hard, but the GTS is as
involving, and as fast. While its not as incisive on the turn as
the racier C 63, it handles both the Grand Touring and Sportster
roles in a positively accomplished fashion, while offering a
much more replete specication, all for $56k less.

GTI
WRX
VERSUS
to a higher redline. While the WRXs auto is good for a CVT, its no
twin-clutch. The CVT with its torque convertor sullies the throttle
response compared with the GTIs box. Fiddling with the various
drive modes, trying it in auto and then taking control of things via
the shift paddles, we found it was the latter that worked best, even if
it meant living with the jerky, faux shifts as it progresses through the
eight pre-set stops on the CVTs pulley. In the GTI, you need just tug
the lever to access Sport mode, knowing it will usually get the gear
selection just right. For control freaks, there are paddles and they
deliver much quicker, smoother changes than the WRX can manage.
Put it this way, we could live with a CVT WRX, but would prefer to
drive stick while wed go for the DSG in the GTI every time. The
Subarus auto is civilised in traffic though, refined with its seamless
progress and keeps a watchful eye on engine speeds to help ease
consumption, which at a stated 8.0L/100km is in uncharted territory
for a WRX. Ultimately, the auto will make it easier for your
purchase to be rubber stamped by the significant other.
Performers on
straights and curves
One thing the Subaru needs is a better launch when youre going for
gold. Its fairly tame from a standing start but once up and puffing, its
still quicker than the GTI. Despite the Golfs launch control function
and the tricky diffs promise of four-wheel drive like traction, the GTI
leaves two black marks on the road when hurried along. Even easing
the throttle on, theres just not the traction to beat the WRX, and so SLT
and AWD triumph over DSG and FDX in this round. Remarkably, the
two are dead even from 80-120km/h, and even more surprising is how
well matched they are during the rigours of a cornering examination.
These two are well suited to local conditions the way they
master body sway and work out the bumpy bits too. Subaru are
wizards at this and the WRX
has more compliance here

Whats a Proceed?
In Europe, theres no Cerato, only the
Ceed. This is a Euro-centric offering,
based on the same platform and
mechanicals as Cerato but its styled in
Europe at Kias Frankfurt studio and built
at its Slovakian factory. Theres also a
three-door version called the Proceed.
While these are produced in right-hand
drive for the UK market, Kia NZ has not
imported the model due to the increased
costs associated with sourcing them from
Europe compared to the Cerato from
Korea. In Kia literature, the model names
are presented as Ceed and Pro_ceed.
But we are not going there. Why Ceed?
Its a mash up of the initials European
Community and European Design.
Suitably confused? Too right. We reckon
Kia NZ should keep it simple and drop
the Proceed reference altogether from
the GT. But McDonald says the Kia GT
nameplate is reserved for the large sports
luxury concept which is apparently close
to being rubber stamped for production,
so its not really an option.

a mad snake its the smallest SUV to give the 0-100km/h run
a ve-second fright but youre hard pressed on rst glance
to differentiate it from the entry-level Q3. Rather like the
toning back of the exhaust roar, Audi didnt want the visuals
too dramatic, more quietly arresting. It rides 25mm lower
than standard Q3s, there are subtle blisters to the guards, its
honeycombed grille is nished in gloss black paint, and a quattro
sign sits discreetly between enlarged air ducts. A slimline diffuser
and roof end spoiler mark out the rear, but theres just the single

real value in the range becomes apparent. All the base limos from
Audi, BMW, Mercedes and Jaguar for similar money are either
not in the hunt for acceleration, or are diesels and cant even nd
the hunt. The QP S is the fastest and amongst the least expensive
large luxury four-doors you can aspire to, its 2979cc biturbo
cranking out just over 300kW of power at 5500rpm and 550Nm of
torque from 1750 to 5000rpm. Attaining 100km/h takes a claimed
5.1sec and with a Cd of 0.31 the Maser will charge on to a Vmax of
285km/h. We didnt try, of course youd lose dangly body parts if
caught doing this in Australia but once those parallel twin-scroll
turbos come to life the car simply bounds past sundry Hiluxes we
encountered in our trip through the NSW hinterland. About three
seconds and ninety metres is what it takes to get the job done.
That said, youre aware this isnt quite in the same league of
haste as the V8-powered GTS. Like the larger-engined car theres a
moments hesitation off the mark as the blowers spin up but where
the V8 lunges away from lower revs, the S likes at least 2500rpm
before you really feel the hit of the turbos. With the transmission set
in Sport, the transition can seem a bit sudden in town, so best to
ease around the burbs in the default transmission setting.
Within a short time, we were entering Lane Cove tunnel and
soon on the M2 heading northwest. After lashings of cruisecontrol motoring to avoid speed camera incursions, we crossed
the Hawkesbury River and arrived at our rst photo stop on the
famous Bells Line of Road. This hilled and treed area in the Blue
Mountains has seen plenty of action over summer, rst with
raging res sparked by idiotic war games, and then with oods
which prompted vibrant regrowth of blackened gum trees, new
shoots literally sprouting from everywhere along the branches.
A little further along on our journey, we took a diversion off
Jenolan Caves Road for more photography. The locals shot us their
we dont take kindly to stangers looks, presumably because of the

Cooper a CHARMER
After the excitement of the Cooper S, we werent expecting
miracles from the Cooper because thats how it has always been
but not any longer. Whereas in the past you bought the Cooper
so you could be part of the Mini in-crowd, now it has a distinct
persona of its own, thanks to its new engine. Gone is the wheezy
atmo 1.6 and in its place an up-to-the-min 1.5-litre three-cylinder
turbo. While power isnt greatly increased, up 10 units to 100kW,
torque takes a 60Nm hike to 220Nm, available from 1250rpm.
Like the S, the Cooper engine features direct fuel injection and
turbocharging. Add fully variable valve timing and youve a much
livelier proposition than before. Moreover, its mean former fuel
use gure of 5.8L/100km is trounced by the triples average of
4.5L/100km. You can get it into the threes easily, and most of the
time sixes without trying for economy.
Performance really lifts with a now respectable sprint time
of eight seconds at for the new six-speed manual transmission
which is a smooth, lightweight affair, and features upshift prompts
to limit fuel use. We bet this engine will mate sweetly with the sixspeed auto too, such is its torque production from low revs.
The base Cooper is a friendly thing on road. Where the former
engine needed to be beaten soundly for barely adequate thrills, this
thrives on modest revs and short shifting. Given how early boost
MINIS?

Points of difference
The X-Trail is the only seven-seater available
for a price point that begins with a three;
in the Outlander seven-seaters kick off at
$47,490. That alone is a prime selling point
as many growing families are looking for that
seven-seat versatility. In the X-Trail the thirdrow seats are accessed by pulling them up out
of a boot oor recess in one easy movement.
Theyre for children mind, but middle-row
sliding seats make them more versatile. And
for a supreme point of difference, hows
about scratch-resistant paint? Nissan has
been working on Scratch Shield for some
time. The top coat has an elastic resin added
that heals light scratches within a few of days,
Three levels
and more
There are three spec levels, ST, ST-L (for
leather) and Ti. Only the base model comes as
a seven-seater, and its front-wheel drive only.
A ve-seat 4WD ST is also offered, at $42,490,
and the higher spec models are all congured
thus. The ST-L with leather trim costs $47,290
and the top Ti rounds out the range at $53,290.
The totally new shape makes the new
third-generation X-Trail quite a different
65
Familiar engine
but new chassis
Supercially theres lots new but theres also some
familiar features to the new T32 X-Trail. The
engine is essentially carryover, though has been
tweaked, principally for efciency, with a claimed
40 per cent reduction in operating friction. Theres
a new variable air intake system, the addition of
variable valve timing to the exhaust cam, and with
taller gearing fuel efciency from the CVT-only
powertrain is said to have improved by around
10 per cent, at 8.1L/100km for the front driver and
8.3L/100km for the on-demand AWD variants.
Power and torque are little changed, at 125kW and
226Nm. Theres no diesel alternative henceforth
because so few bought the old one.
The transmission is an updated version of the
existing CVT, the power processed through the same
part-time 4WD system as before (with 2WD, auto
and locked 4WD settings). Underpinning X-Trail is
the Alliances new Common Module Platform, also
beneath the incoming second-generation Qashqai.

K Autocar said of Jaguars F-Type
convertible that it is one of the best
sports cars of the modern era. Fair
enough, but the magazine had a bit
of a fence-sit by stating it competes
neither with Boxster nor 911. Perhaps
in the UK, but here it rivals the Porsche Boxster S
directly, the base F-Type selling for $140k whereas
the German goes for $147,300. Both are rear-drive
two-seaters with electric soft tops. They vary in
some key ways, but if were mentioning either
we need to reference the other.
We were wowed by the racy lines, the sheer
volume of noise and the outrageous performance
of the V8 S F-Type. As a storming soft top, it had
it all, albeit with a bit much ab. How does the
base version measure up? Most favourably, like a
middleweight sportsbike against its litre sib. The
small bike is almost as quick, but you can ride it
harder without messing yourself.
The two Jaguars look almost identical; only the
dual central exhausts of the base car give the game
away. The baby goes hard enough, and sounds
almost as exotic. Im struggling to think of a V6 that
has as much sonic soul. The V8 S was stupid quick,
where the base car, with its 250kW supercharged

he medium segment has been static or in decline for
some years, with the ongoing rise of the SUV. Still, the new
Mazda6 has given the sector a small llip and its this car with
which the 2014 MY Optima competes. Rather cleverly the top
Optima, the Limited, sits at a price point midway between the
GSX and Limited Mazda6 models, with specication closer to
the latter. However, it costs $52,490 whereas the Mazda6 GSX
sneaks below $50k, as do other front-drive contenders like Mondeo
EcoBoost Zetec. Even a Passat TSI 118 can be yours for under $48k.
So the handsome Optima Limited will need to be more than
just spec-laden. The 2014 model year Optima gets some reasonably
signicant changes, the most obvious of which is the move to a
quartet of LEDs for the fog lights, replacing the lone triangular units
of its forebear. Whether this is an improvement is debatable. Still,
theres a new grille, and LED daytime running lights move to a site
above the main units, looking smart. As does the rest of the car, with
its coupe-like outline, and sports body kit on the Limited edition.
A new boot lid, diffuser and LED taillights complete the external
changes to Optima. Hidden are small mods to the Australasian
suspension tune to improve ride, handling and noise suppression.
The cabin changes are signicant too, with freshened
instruments and a big new central touch screen for satellite
navigation and reversing camera images. A change to wheel and
seat design, and an Eco button round things out. An overall gure
of 7.9L/100km falls short of segment leader Mazda6s gure of 6.6.
And the same could be said of performance. Our somewhat
74
raw example posted a best run to the open road limit of 9.7sec. The
Mazda easily betters this, as does Mondeo EcoBoost, both by around
2.0sec. Optimas kerb weight of 1578kg, 100kg above the Mazdas,
does it no favours. The 2.4-litre direct injection motor may not sound
sporting but it boasts pretty fair numbers, with peak power just shy
of 150kW. It gets round town with little apparent effort. Maximum
torque of 250Nm occurs around 4200rpm, and thats how it feels
on rural runs, with gutsy overtaking brawn available from around
3500rpm and the real oil owing from 4500rpm onwards. That does
mean, however, that a hasty passing manoeuvre requires third gear.
Hustle it along and fuel economy eases into double gures but then it
would be even higher on any turbo-enhanced competition.
Despite suspension fettling, dynamics fall short of the lighter,
more nimble competition, but the car is now quieter than before by
almost 2dB. In tight going where second gear works ne, the ESP is
fairly insistent on slowing progress but through more open corners
a good ow can be massaged from the Optima. In town, we initially
thought its electric steering lifeless but its better on B roads, with
some feedback evident. Weve noted electric steering is slowly
improving, if we are generalising.
A complaint weve levelled previously at Korean offerings is
underdone brakes, and this new and improved Optima is no
different. Again, the kerb weight doesnt help, and the pedal lacks
real bite and feel, not engendering condence.
Apart from unconvincing dark wood trim, the interior is rather
elegant, with a decent if elevated driving position. A hard edge on

NOT THE V8
E-CLASS, OK?
ast year Mercedes facelifted the E-Class, giving it a more
modern and assertive appearance, and introduced further
safety features along with new powerplants. All with a price
decrease; stone the crows. While the additional safety and
technology factors, like pedestrian detection and
LED headlights, were appreciated, the changes
under the hood were every bit as signicant. Like the axing of the
old atmo V8 and V6 petrol donks, replaced with a 3.0-litre biturbo
V6. Featuring direct injection and dual variable valve timing, the
E400 creates 245kW and a lofty 480Nm, the torque coming alive
from 1600rpm. Its meant to charge through the 100km/h barrier
in 5.3sec, while overall fuel use is a meagre 7.6L/100km. Pretty
amazing but we found not entirely reproducible.
And theres a good reason for that. Since the launch of the
rejuvenated E-Class, Mercedes has added a higher spec E 400 EX1,
which features an exclusive package. And thats the model we drove.
Additional kit comprises a multicontour seat package, Airmatic
suspension, vented and heated front seats clad with nappa leather
upholstery, a fancy steering wheel, and a panoramic sliding sunroof.
Oh, and a rear seat entertainment package, TV tuner, sun protection,
and dual zone air, all of which adds $20k to the $131k asking price.
The additional gear has an impact on kerb weight and the reason
we mention this is that the E400 failed to live up to accelerative
expectations, overshooting its claimed 5.3sec sprint time by half a
second. The spec sheet suggested a claimed weight of 1785kg. We
found an extra 129kg, presumably associated with the exclusive
package and enough to account for the performance shortfall.

a sentimental
I
78
for the rst time at our conference, there were several long-time
Ford dealers who had tears rolling down their cheeks.
So who will shed a tear when the last Falcon rolls down the line
at Fords factory in Broadmeadows, North Melbourne in around
two-and-a-half years time? I for one, but Ill also reserve plenty of
sentiment for Falcons multi-tasking SUV off-shoot, Territory. The
latter is one of the most respected cross-over vehicles on the market,
and not just because of its versatility and wealth of towing capacity.
It remains the poorer mans version of a Porsche Cayenne when
it comes to driving dynamics. Put bluntly, Territory doesnt drive
This original
1962 Falcon at
Port Albert is destined
to become backyard gold
for future auto-resto
prospectors
79
and I been seeking to tow a caravan, the Territory would have easily
handled the load with 2300kg of towing capacity and 440Nm of
torque to call upon. Other benets of TS tenure included a more
powerful audio system, partial power drivers seat adjustment, rear
view camera via a larger 8-inch touch-screen, and 18-inch alloys. Satnav was reserved for the range-topping Titanium specication, so a
$30 Telstra pre-pay sim card was quickly inserted into my phone to
provide iNav directions via the vehicles Bluetooth connection, and
a pile of maps were purchased from a rapidly-dwindling network of
RACV shops (think AA) for route planning.
Stocking up before hitting the gum-tree-fringed rural roads of
the big country quickly highlighted that the merchants of the mall
in Campbelleld are fearful of their futures after the nearby Ford
factory closes. Their comments brought a bigger picture into view.
Ofcially, some 53,000 jobs will be lost when the three remaining carmaking factories located on Australian shores close. That number
includes just the workers that build the cars and those that supply
their components. The Campbelleld commentary suggested
far wider effects than those envisaged by the Tony Abbott-led
government will be felt. When the Broadmeadows factory closes, the
retailers all expect a huge domino-like blow to fall upon the mall.
But enough sentiment, lets get on with the journey. Exiting
Melbournes south-eastern suburbs and heading into Gippsland
quickly showed that most international tourists go as far as
watching the cute nightly Penguin parade at Phillip Island and
80
leave the rest of that part of Victoria to the Australians. Yet we found
some real gems heading east, with historic Port Albert and the
wild Cape-dened coast around Mallacoota providing a couple of
memorable overnight locations. As for the Territory, it was warming
to the task of touring now that there was a bit more air in its tyres.
Raising them from 25psi to 32 had won noticeable improvements
in its steering and road-holding. A refuel at Bairnsdale quickly
soothed any worries about fuel use. The Territory was drinking at a
rate of 6.5litres/100km, allowing the 75-litre tank capacity to stretch
to distances of more than 1000km. With Victorian diesel costing
around $1.55 per litre including tax, the two-tonne Ford was
denitely posing no threat to the drivers beer fund.
Crossing the border into New South Wales added another ten
cents to the price of diesel and brought on a rapid deterioration
in the road surface. Yet the Territory felt entirely at home on the
lumpy surfaces, its fully-independent suspension easily soaking
up everything that the states less groomed roads could chuck
at it. When a Ranger-based SUV eventually arrives to replace
Territory, its greatest challenge will be to provide such supple
and comforting suspension quality. The other will be delivering
a similarly-quiet cabin.
Overnighting at Tathra on the states southern coast, we not only
encounter a wealth of freshly-harvested oysters (16 for 11 bucks!),
but we get to meet one of the Territorys biggest fans. Wayne, from
Mildura, is travelling with his wife, her sister, and four kids in a

all the while spending way too much money on the whole process.
Ive been an enthusiastic fan of factory built race cars ever since.
One of the many issues Toyota NZ had to confront when
converting their 86 road car into the TR 86 race car was the relatively
modest horsepower output of the 2.0-litre engine. It would be so
easy to over-endow the car with huge wheels and sticky tyres to the
point where straight line speed would be compromised. Getting the
optimum tyre/wheel size for a race car is an art. Bigger is not always
better. Think about it. Imagine putting motorcycle wheels and tyres
on your push bike. Imagine how much extra effort it would take
to get those big hoops rolling. The grip through corners would be
excellent, but unless you were racing downhill, youd seldom be able
to generate enough speed to warrant it.
Another problem for Toyota NZ was that the cars, in their standard
road going format, produce uninspiring lap times when compared
to other one make championships, including the old Suzuki Swift
series. The solution to better lap times was to specify the race cars with
optimum sized sticky slicks, big brakes and uprated suspension. These
xes improved lap times but created a new problem. The brake and tyre
package, combined with the cars light weight and relatively low speeds
down the straights, have resulted in incredibly short braking distances
and therefore limited opportunities for drivers to pass under brakes.
Once the evenly matched cars are on the exit from the corner, one driver
has to make a fundamental mistake before another car can slip past.
Essentially then, TR 86 races are often won during the qualifying session
that determines the grid positions. Dont expect to see a driver charge

other race cars, Ive been hard on the brakes just past the 150
metre sign. Doing the same in the Toyota scrubbed off way
too much pace for the approaching corner, and I had a quick
look in the rear view mirror to see if anybody had noticed my
rookie error. I didnt do enough laps to nd out how far past
that 150 mark you could ultimately go before hitting the brakes
but I imagine you could almost be at the 50-metre mark before
braking and still make the corner. Thats how quickly the car
hauls up. Overall, the TR 86 is a lot of fun on the track. Its stiff
chassis and accurate steering allow it to dart about eagerly.
Like the road car, it will slide about if provoked too hard, but of
course, that would result in slower lap times. Its a sweet little
package that initially atters the driver into thinking it would be
easy to get a class leading time out of it. The reality is different.
To get that last few tenths needed for a pole time would require
a team effort. The correct suspension settings would have a big
inuence, as would tyre pressures, and that last few percent
would take real driving skill and a knowledgeable crew to nd.
Even though Toyota NZ has done a great job of overcoming
all the technical difculties in turning a road car into a race
car, I am left wondering if the series could be improved by
running a lower spec tyre with less ultimate grip. This would
lengthen the braking distances and create a few more passing
opportunities. It would also lower the running costs for drivers
and allow the cars to move and slide around a little which
would improve the spectacle for all involved.
Its been a shame to see such a low uptake of drivers
wanting to compete in this new series. The TR 86 has the
sophisticated feel of a real race car that drivers and crew
alike will be able to learn a lot from. A eld of only eight cars
probably isnt what Toyota NZ envisioned. It seems the cars
$90,000 price tag has, understandably, deterred many and will
continue to be an impediment to a successful future for this
series. The replacement cost of easily damaged items like front
guards, taillights and headlights is also horrendously steep.
Toyota doesnt seem to be giving especially generous discounts
to drivers to help them in that respect. However, for a young
driver with ambitions like Matt Gibson, the TR 86 makes a
better investment than other entry-level championships. The
essential difference is the sophisticated Motec system installed
in every TR 86. The Motec gives feedback data on a wide range
of Matts driving inputs, as well as reactions from the car, just
as V8 SuperTourers or V8 Supercars do. This information can
then be analysed in detail to improve both the car and the
driver. Learning how to interpret that data is now essential for
any driver who wants to progress above club level motorsport.
Once other drivers appreciate this, they may start to overlook
the high price of the cars and the series could evolve into an
excellent springboard for future champions.

CBR to throttle input from the rider. The result is fuelling so awless
that it is comparable to that of the rival Yamaha R6s silky responses,
despite the Honda not resorting to copying the trick-but-expensive
variable-length inlet tracts of the latter bike.
In these times of Supersport machines sprouting contrarotating crankshafts, self-adjusting variable-length inlet tracts, and
stratospherically-high rev ceilings, the Honda might seem a more
basic bike on paper. It would be easy to be fooled in any brochure
comparison with some of its rivals into thinking that it is somehow a
lesser machine. Any real seat time will reveal that, in fact, the CBRs
performance is ultra-competitive and comes wrapped in an aura
of renement that few rivals can match. The six-speed box is one of
the best in bikedom, the clutch take-up light, progressive and easy
to access. The switchgear sets the quality agenda for the sector. Yes,
the CBR is fast, and when operating the engine in the upper third
of the rev range it begs the question of why anyone would need a
CBR1000RR, but all four Japanese-branded Supersports are capable
of generating similar eye-widening impressions. The dening
feature of the Honda is that it out-renes the competition while
setting lap times that are just as competitive.
For me, Ill take this renement over potentially-unnecessary
sophistication every time thanks. Its debatable to me whether a
Supersport like this needs traction control when its responses to
rider input are so trustworthy and easily judged. Honda obviously
considers that the test CBRs ABS system represents a higher priority
than any provision of TC. For the CBR lacks the latter entirely, while
the former is quite possibly one of the best anti-lock systems currently
in business. Theres no stuttering or pulsing when it cuts in precisely
when you need it, and the 2014 CBR is even more adept at keeping its
rear wheel in contact with terra rma than the 2013 version.
Its the new bikes Showa Big Piston Forks (BPF) that are
responsible, as the 2014 CBR now joins the current Suzuki
GSX-R600 and Kawasaki ZX-6R in the BPF club. These replace
the cartridge-style fork leg internals of the previous CBR with
large pistons that offer more than three times the pressurebearing contact area, and the result is improved ow paths for
damping oil, less travel used during heavy braking, and smoother
transitions from compression to rebound. With the CBR already
possessing one of the stubbiest, most-agile-handling frames in the
Supersport arena, as well as the sectors only electronic speedsensitive steering damper, the new BPF front end further improves
what was already one of the most biddable bikes around.
So whats not to like? The ergos are still tailored more towards
race jocks rather than ordinary riders, and at $21,995, the price
of an ABS-equipped CBR600RR has climbed dangerously close
to Euro-sportsbike territory and its only a small stretch to either
Ducatis new 899 Panigale or an MV-Agusta F3. If you prefer
renement to revolution, take the CBR.

DIAVEL
temptation
or 2014 Ducati introduces a signicantly upgraded
Diavel with an engine tweaked for even smoother
operation, an updated exhaust system, and styling
enhancements. The latest generation Testastretta 11
Dual Spark engine offers more torque, thanks to changes
in porting and cam timing, and now generates 131Nm at
8000rpm to complement its 121kW (162hp) and 210kg
dry weight. Clutch lever pressure has been reduced, and
major service intervals are now out to 30,000km.

LOSING
have a little ritual each morning when I arrive at work.
I always enter through the side door, bypassing the
usual gaggle of autograph hounds out front, at the same
time avoiding any lurid headlines in the gutter press
(Rob Scott prefers the rear entrance).
This conveniently takes me through the mail room,
where I liberate any interesting packages addressed
to Cuisine, then wander down the hallway towards the
NZ Autocar ofce. NZ House & Garden often have baskets
of produce in their foyer, so its usually fun to grab an apple
or carrot and lob it through the door of NZ Horse & Pony.
Im sure they nd it as amusing as I do.
My rst task used to be to clear my e-mails, but I now
prefer to spend any spare computer time maintaining
my penis enlargement and Nigerian Lottery businesses.
So I have a secretary sort through the dross before I arrive.
Shes a dear old soul named Kiri, used to do a bit of
singing apparently, but Im just glad I could nd something
for her to do in her dotage.
Ive deleted most of your extraneous correspondence,
(did I say she enunciates beautifully?), so theres only
a few matters that require your attention.
She peered at her notes. Theres a Mr Putin would like
you to co-drive for him in his rst rally.
I dont normally bother with novices but it sounded
intriguing. Does he say where?
Hes thinking of driving into Estonia or the Ukraine.
I pondered the offer then said, Better not. I saw
him at a rally in Red Square and he seemed more suited
to crowd control than hanging on to a steering wheel.
What else have you got?
A Herr Dotcom has sent you an invitation to his party.
Birthday or political?
Im afraid hes not explicit.
Better decline either way Im likely to
end up in jail. But tell him I can get him a job
in the next Santa parade if hell let me borrow
that pink Cadillac.
Kiri furrowed her brow. I thought those
roles were highly prized.
I shook my head. Not as Santa I was
thinking of one of those gas-lled inatables.
Any other messages?
Theres a press release from the
Otago School of Sports Medicine.
I rolled my eyes. I loathe
press releases and
I have a little
problem with the
