CAR MAGAZINE INTERVIEW – “ON THE BACK SEAT WITH JULZ!”
17 Aug 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
It’s not everyday I follow in the footsteps of the 2oceansvibe Weather Girls – but I couldn’t resist the chance to shoot the breeze with Julz, who has previously featured the likes of Cape Town’s very own smoking hot sex kitten, Lyndall Jarvis on her show! And that’s before we even get into Julz herself […]

THEY PROBABLY HAVE “SMALL UMBRELLA TAX”
11 Aug 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
There are only a handful of genuii (first-person masculine plural) who can pull off classified ads that rival that classic Australian BMX ad we featured back in Feb oh niner. A lot of peeps out there try their best but they just don’t get you in the same way – they’re trying too hard. Unlike […]

TOP GEAR USA: NOT RIGHT
10 Aug 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 6 Comments
If the original Top Gear is sex, then Top Gear USA is sex with a dead person. Mechanically speaking, you’re doing the same thing, but it’s wrong, and you should never, ever do it, and society will hate you for it, and you’ll always be remembered as the guy who took something fundamentally awesome and […]

ROBERT MUGABE, IS THAT YOU?
04 Aug 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 6 Comments
Check this Roller with Zim plates and the number “1” spotted in Sandton.. Mugabe? Is that how Bob *ahem* rolls..? I reckon it might be. I love the way it doesn’t need any other digits or letters – as if it is the first car in the world. All it has is a little Zim […]

WHO DECIDES TAXI NAMES?
03 Aug 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
Some people want to know what happens when we die. Personally, I think there are far more pressing issues at hand. Like, WHO comes up with the names on the back of taxis? I’m not kidding – this is important shit. I really think these back window messages have been sent to test me. Not […]

SUBARU JOINS AUDI’S MOVE TO INCLUDE 3G AND INTERNET RADIO IN THEIR CARS
20 Jul 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
With the likes of the UK shutting down the FM signal completely, combined with our increased need for non-stop internet, it’s no wonder Subaru are following in Audi’s tracks by developing cars with built-in 3G. The Subaru Outback, a “crossover” SUV and yuppie icon that seems naked without a ski rack on top and several […]

PASS THE DUTCHIE ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE!
28 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
You gotta give the Dutch credit – they certainly get A for effort in the fandom stakes. I’ve received a tumultuous load of emails with these pics and didn’t know where to start. Luckily I found a fellow blogger, blacknotes.co.za had done the necessary. Seriously – that’s nothing.. Crazy cars – crazy people.. Check it […]

REMEMBER THE GOLDFISH KIA CARS AD? WITH THE HAMSTERS? YOU AIN’T SEEN NOTHING YET!
25 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
You’ll recall the awesome ad that my buddy Colin Jeffery in the States (The Advertising Guy) did with Goldfish (The Blonde & Baby Jesus). Remember, it’s the one where the hamsters drive a KIA car with Goldfish playing on the system. Check the commercial out here. Incidentally, the same Goldfish tune Colin used in the […]

Let’s enjoy it with our morning coffee: A response to this post from the Grand Daddy: It is regrettably true that this […]

THE SMASHED FERRARI QUOTE – JOHANNESBURG
01 Jun 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 13 Comments
They say the sight of a smashed up Ferrari can break a man. This may be true, but I think the sight of a repair bill can be even worse. Especially for a big accident. Especially when it’s a Ferrari. Like this Ferrari, for example: 1 X whoopsie That was sent in by a few […]

“THE STIG” LEARNER DRIVER
26 May 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
Fans of Top Gear will get the appeal of a numberplate that suggests the driver is “The Stig” – the mysterious test driver from the hit TV series, whose identity has never been fully revealed. There’s only one problem with this picture: Learner Stig Oh, the irony. [thanks steve]

MERCEDES BENZ BREAKS WALL OF CAR PARK
13 May 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 5 Comments
Do you remember that revolting woman who screamed at me like a lunatic in Cavendish Square? You know, the one who was shouting, “You drahvin marmees cor!” Ja, well I thought of her when I saw this article. This is the type of thing she would do – although it would be better if she […]

BUCKLE UP, YOU BEAUTIFUL THING YOU
30 Apr 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
People are surprised when they find out how strict I am when it comes to seat belts. Much like Nick Goldblatt (Golders), I refuse to drive or let passengers join me without them wearing one. Even when the Cape Royale chauffeur drives me around, I buckle up in the back seat. Some people forget to […]

Take Lyndall Jarvis, for example, who joined Julz for the debut “On The Couch” episode for Car Magazine’s website. “CARtv’s Juliet McGuire chats to her friend Lyndall Jarvis, who was voted FHM’s Sexiest Woman in the World, about her motoring adventures, what […]

SA’S MOST PRESTIGIOUS ROAD RALLY IS BORN – THE “LORMARINS 1200”
22 Apr 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
My goodness, I do like the sound of this! Finally we get a rally which makes use of both fine cars and the magical vistas that make up the Western Cape. They say it’s a non-competitive rally, but if I manage to secure a berth I can promise you right now I will have a […]

THE ALL NEW JAGUAR XJ – NOW WITH IT’S OWN HARD DRIVE!
21 Apr 2010 by Seth Rotherham / No Comments
I just got my latest issue of Car Magazine in the post and spotted the all-new Jaguar XJ on the cover. Jeepers, but that is a beauty! The Cape Royale has been driving me around in the XF which has been an absolute dream, but I must say I wouldn’t mind an upgrade, if there’s […]

GRAND DADDY HOTEL VALET NOT LIKELY TO GET A TIP
20 Apr 2010 by Jasmine Stone / 8 Comments
Word on the street is that a valet attendant employed by the four star Grand Daddy on Long Street may have allegedly abused his position last Saturday night. And when we say “abused his position”, what we really mean to say is “stole a Grand Daddy client’s Mini Cooper Sport, and wrecked it Jub Jub […]

LOCAL WEBSITE WILL REDUCE YOUR TRAFFIC FINES
19 Apr 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 4 Comments
It’s common knowledge amongst the well-informed (funny that) that your traffic fines will almost always be reduced if you send in a letter with a feasible excuse to the traffic department. Fines are nearly always halved at the very least. The only problem is we often don’t have the strength to actually sit down and […]

CROUCHING TIGER, HIDDEN DRAGON
26 Mar 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 3 Comments
We spot some awesome individuals driving around in Cape Town and some of my favourites are those who populate the back shelves of their cars with fluffy toys. Some of them have a couple stuffed animals, whilst others are prone to entertaining all seven dwarves. Then the more hard core have literally an entire population […]

YOU AND YOUR EX ON THE SIDE OF A TRUCK – NOT IDEAL
15 Mar 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 1 Comment
I was leaving my Saturday morning session with Bob Skinstad at KFM, when I noticed a truck offloading some goods. The side of the truck had a man and a woman advertising a brand of mattress. They were in a state of undress and it was very clear that this couple were on the verge […]

WHO NEEDS ACTUAL TYRES?
11 Mar 2010 by Seth Rotherham / 2 Comments
Harders sent in this beautiful pic taken very recently. You’ll notice how a hose pipe can very easily be used as a tyre. What’s going on here? Oh hello! Absolutely brilliant! Not a bad idea at all – especially with the price of tyres these days – I may well do the same thing. Although, […]
