Yes. Mr Fisher drive two old cars. Yes, they remind him of a more interesting time in motoring. But is that as far as it goes? See, design is in an intrinsic thing, it’s resides deep inside our DNA, and when we spot something old and get a warm fuzzy feeling, it has a lot more to do with ourselves than the car. Calvin Fisher explains.

If you think that Calvin Fisher fancies himself as a hotshot behind the wheel, you couldn't be further from the truth. All cars are inherently capable and if you have a basic understanding of how to corner, transforming anything, from a humble hatchback to a slab-sided panelvan, into something capable of humiliating faster metal can be easy.

Ahead of the new Toyota Supra launch later the week, Calvin Fisher reflects on what it was like to have an GT86 for a year, not to mention owning a 36-year-old Celica Supra. Oh, and we have pricing for this BMW co-developed coupe packing a turbo-charged straight six 3.0 litre with 250kW and 500Nm on tap – good for a 4 or so second sprint to 100kph.

With a recent drive in the new Mahindra XUV300 W8 1.5 Diesel, for James Siddall it’s becoming increasingly clear that the future, at least in developing countries like ours, perhaps belongs less to Tesla-type vehicles and hydrogen-cell wonders that we’ll drive in glittery tin-foil suits, and more to the Chinese, especially Haval, and the Indians.

Don’t get us wrong – we love boost as much as the next driver, but there’s something about perfectly the linear acceleration with razor’s edge response of a naturally aspirated engine, and well, we’ll miss it as the world goes turbo. Calvin Fisher lists five of the greatest naturally aspirated sports cars you can still buy for under 1 Million Rand.

After recently trying to renew her driver’s licence Kelly Lodewyks was told that there were two outstanding warrants against her name. That meant that she couldn’t renew her licence until the warrants were sorted. As a result, I’ve been wondering about what the laws are around this and what one should do (and NOT do) when stopped at a roadblock.

When James Siddal ponders his great drives of the years and decades past, they’re less vast, sweeping bucket-list recounts of Nurburgring forays in supercars or seminal Sahara crossings. No, instead, he’d prefer to tell you about behind-the-wheel experiences that for brief and shining moments are, forever, burnt neon in his motoring memories!

Calvin Fisher explores that most satisfying means of turning rubber into vapour – the burnout. Is it childish? Sure. Satisfying? You bet. But it doesn’t need to be dangerous. In fact, you absolutely don’t need to put yourself nor anyone you love in harm’s way, or an innocent bystander either for that matter. Class is now in session. Pay attention.
