Zu Jahresbeginn hatten wir ein 7:3 für die Männer, jetzt sogar ein 8:2. Heute um 20:30 Uhr spielt Filip Misolic in der R32 der French Open gegen Novak Djokovic. Die Wettquoten sind eindeutig: 1,04 bei Sieg Djoker, 11 bei Sieg Misolic. Sollte Miso Against All Odds gewinnen, passiert Folgendes: Er wäre erstmals beste(r) Österreicher(in) im Tennis. Sebastian Ofner und Julia Grabher, beide nach Verletzungen stark zurück, waren das schon. Und auch Lukas Neumayer ist am aufsteigenden Ast. Ich sage mal auf Basis der Leistungen der ersten 5 Monate: Schon sehr bald gibt es rot-weiss-rot wieder in ATP oder WTA Top100. https://live-tennis.eu/en/atp-live-ranking https://live-tennis.eu/en/wta-live-ranking https://schmieze.com https://sports.admiral.at/de/sportwetten/tennis/grand-slam Die SportWoche Podcasts sind presented by Instahelp: Psychologische Beratung online, ohne Wartezeit, vertraulich & anonym.

Sally Shentall, from Lichtenberg in North West, is a mother of two daughters, Leigh (4) and Elara (2). She is currently in her second year of distance learning at North-West University (NWU), pursuing a Bachelor of Education in Foundation Phase Teaching. Unfortunately, on 17 December, her family was involved in a car accident. Her husband sustained a serious back injury and is still recovering. As a self-employed individual, he has been unable to work and, therefore, unable to earn a living. On top of this financial setback, the family has been burdened with mounting medical bills. That's why Sally reached out to Good Morning Angels, applying for a Willard Bursary to cover her R32,000 tuition fees for 2025.

Pocas marcas tienen una historia tan rica, tan variada y tan entretenida como la de BMW. Lleváis desde hace tiempo pidiéndome este vídeo y ¿queréis saber porque no lo había hecho antes? Pues porque iba a ser larguísimo. Así que en vez de la historia completa vamos a detenernos en los hitos más importantes para la marca que incluyen desde su colaboración con los nazis, la fabricación de ollas o su intento de venta a Mercedes… Hoy en día BMW es dueña de la propia marca BMW en coches y motos, Mini, Rolls Royce, BMW i y la rentable BMW Bank. Esto es ahora aunque los comienzos no fueron fáciles. Karl Rapp fundó en 1913 una fábrica para producir motores a la que llamó, en un alarde de originalidad propio de esos tiempos, “fábrica de motores de Rapp”. En alemán suena más rotundo, Rapp Motorenwerke. El 7 de marzo de 1916 se considera la fecha de la fundación de BMW cuando la antigua Rapp pasa a denominarse BMW GmBH que es como llama los alemanes a las sociedades limitadas y luego BMW AG. Pero esta, todavía, no es la auténtica BMW. Llegan son los éxitos gracias al brillante ingeniero Max Friz que diseña motores de avión de alta compresión que consiguen que los aviones puedan volar más rápido y sobre todo más alto… En 1922 uno de los co-fundadores de la marca, Castiglioni, se va de la empresa para irse a otra empresa, la Gustav Otto Fligzeugwerk… empresa de nombre original: “Fabrica de aviones de Gustav Otto”. El tal Gustav era ni más ni menos que el hijo de Nikolaus August, el inventor del motor de 4 tiempos… Se llevan los derechos de la marca BMW, aunque al principio la empresa se llamaba BFW, un nombre un “poquito” más original, que sería algo así como “Baviera de aviación”. Pero con la salida de Camilo Castiglioni, la empresa vuelve a denominarse BMW, su nombre actual, “Fábrica de motores de Baviera”. Nuestro amigo Max Friz, ingeniero aeronáutico no lo olvidemos, diseñó una moto en su momento revolucionaria, la R32 presentada en 1923, con motor boxer longitudinal y transmisión por cardan… las actuales BMW, incluida la mía, siguen llevando esta configuración, que en su momento despertó verdadera admiración. No mucho más tarde el fabricante del modesto coche DIXI, la empresa Automobilwerk Eisenach, pasaba por una situación financiera no muy boyante y BMW la adquiere para convertirse en fabricante de coches. Llegaron los BMW 326 de 1935, el 327 de 1937 y sobre todo el precioso roadster deportivo 328 de 1936, una joya. A finales de los años 30 la aviación no deja de crecer y BMW dedica la mayor parte de sus esfuerzos a la fabricación de motores para aviones, su negocio primigenio, hasta tal punto que a finales de esa década en el mejor negocio de la empresa con diferencia. La llegada de Hitler y el nacismo y el rearme de Alemania en esos años propiciaron que la venta de motores de avión no dejase de crecer y crecer hasta el punto de que BMW apenas era capaz de satisfacer la demanda… Pero estalla la Segunda Guerra Mundial y BMW encuentra una solución para conseguir mano de obra barata. La familia Quandt es en la actualidad accionista mayoritaria de BMW y su patriarca, Günther Quandt fue en su momento un apasionado colaborador de los nazis a los que proveyó primero de uniformes y luego de motores de aviación y armamento. El hecho es que BMW utilizó mano de obra esclava procedente sobre todo del campo de concentración de Dachau para la producción en masa de motores destinados a la Luftwaffe, el ejército del aire nazi. Y la familia Quandt se enriqueció, sin duda. Pero al acabar la guerra, los aliados prohibieron a BMW fabricar vehículos y motores de aviación al menos durante 3 años. Además de la prohibición, la fábrica de Múnich quedó arrasada por las bombas y en esta situación BMW pudo salir a flote gracias a la fabricación de frenos… y de ollas, diversos utensilios para cocinar, herramientas agrícolas y hasta macetas. Todo valía para ganar algo de dinero. Todo pasa y ya en 1951 BMW fabricó su primer coche de la post guerra, el BMW 501. Los años 1958 y 1959 fueron un desastre económico y la junta de accionistas del 9 de diciembre de 1959, un drama de película. Los préstamos del Deutsche Bank habían convertido a la entidad financiera en accionista de referencia, pues además representaba los intereses de las acciones que tenían en custodia. Para salvar a BMW hacían falta dos cosas: Buenos productos y, sobre todo, dinero. Y reaparece la familia Quandt, de la mano de Herbert Quandt que tenía unos “ahorrillos”, me imagino de donde salieron. Con una ampliación de capital la familia Quandt se convirtió en el principal accionista, con el 60 por ciento de la empresa. En la actualidad la familia conserva algo menos de 50 por ciento… ¡esto es invertir con visión de futuro.

Esto es un extracto de la tertulia de AutoFM que se emite cada jueves en Onda Cero 1. Fin del VR6: • El motor VR6, un legendario propulsor de Volkswagen, dejará de fabricarse después de 34 años debido a las estrictas normativas de emisiones. • El último vehículo que utilizó este motor fue el Volkswagen Atlas, comercializado en Estados Unidos, que ahora adopta un motor de cuatro cilindros turbo. • La normativa de emisiones de la EPA estadounidense ha forzado su retirada definitiva. 2. Historia y Características del VR6: • Desarrollado en los años 80 y lanzado al mercado en 1991 con los modelos Volkswagen Passat y Corrado europeos. • Es un motor gasolina atmosférico de seis cilindros dispuestos en una configuración de “V estrecha” con bancadas muy próximas, lo que permite dimensiones compactas. • Su diseño único facilitó su instalación transversal en coches de tracción delantera, ocupando un espacio similar al de un motor de cuatro cilindros en línea. • Inicialmente, el motor VR6 era un 2.8 litros con 190 CV. 3. Aplicaciones y Popularidad: • El motor ganó notoriedad con el lanzamiento del Volkswagen Golf mk3 en 1992, siendo parte de su versión tope de gama. • Fue utilizado en una amplia variedad de vehículos del Grupo Volkswagen: • Compactos: Volkswagen Golf, Audi A3. • SUVs y Crossovers: Volkswagen Touareg, Porsche Cayenne. • Furgonetas: Volkswagen Transporter T4. • Monovolúmenes: SEAT Alhambra, Volkswagen Sharan. • Deportivos: Audi TT, Volkswagen New Beetle RSi. • Incluso fue adaptado para motocicletas como las Horex. • Versiones icónicas incluyen el R32 de 3.2 litros usado en los Volkswagen Golf R32 mk4 y mk5, el Audi TT 3.2, y el Porsche Cayenne de primera generación. 4. Características Destacadas: • Reconocido por su sonido distintivo, una entrega de potencia suave y versátil, y dimensiones compactas. • Disponible en varias configuraciones, con cilindradas desde 2.5 litros a 3.6 litros, y versiones de 12 y 24 válvulas. • Ejemplo icónico: el Passat R36 con un VR6 de 3.6 litros. 5. Declive y Retirada: • En los últimos años, el VR6 se limitó a mercados como Norteamérica y China en modelos como el Volkswagen Teramont, Volkswagen Talagon, y Volkswagen Atlas. • Su salida definitiva se debe a las estrictas normativas de emisiones, marcando el fin de una era para este icónico motor. El motor VR6 deja un legado inolvidable como una de las mecánicas más emblemáticas de Volkswagen, destacando por su innovación, versatilidad y sonido incomparable.

Al margen de sus ventas, de que sean más o menos míticas, de los éxitos deportivos o su estética hay motos que han sido claves en la historia del motociclismo… y hoy os traigo 10 de ellas. Seguro que no están todas las que son, pero espero que sean todas las que están. ¿He acertado o no? Al final, me das tu opinión Creo que las 10 motos de esta lista, que esta vez son 10 y no 12+1, han sido todas claves… pero seguro que hay otras que también han aportado mucho y no están… ¡pues para eso estáis vosotros! Me gusta mucho este “Oscar” que me dieron en una formación sobre trabajo en equipo que dice “ninguno de nosotros es tan listo como todos nosotros”. Pues eso, espero sugerencias. 1. Harley Davidson Modelo 5 (1909). ¿Por qué hemos elegido el “modelo 5” y no uno anterior? Te respondo con otra pregunta, ¿cuál es la mayor seña de identidad de las Harley Davidson? Me dirás que su motor en V. Y el este modelo fue el primero en llevar este motor. 2. BMW R32 (1923). Siempre lo digo: A diferencia de los coches el motor de una moto es parte de su personalidad incluso estética. Igual que H-D se identifica con el motor en V transversal, todavía hoy a BMW se le identifica con el motor Bóxer longitudinal. Y la primera BMW que monto ese motor, cuya estructura mantienen todavía hoy muchas BMW, fue la R32 diseñada por Max Friz. 3. Vespa (1946). Aunque no sean realmente motos me he permitido incluir, por su importancia, dos Scooter y uno de ellos es, inevitablemente, la Vespa, ícono del diseño, de la cultura scooter y tan italiana como la “pizza”. Es España lo conocemos bien porque se fabricó aquí. 4. Honda Super Cub (1958). El Segundo y último scooter de esta lista. Imagino que ya todos sabéis que Honda la fundó Soichiro Honda que fue, junto con otro genio, Takeo Fujisawa los diseñadores de este modelo, probablemente la moto más fabricada en la historia con, ¡agárrate! Más de 100 millones de unidades. Y sigue fabricándose. 5. Triumph Bonneville T120 (1959). Confieso que me he pensado si incluir esta moto o no, porque se han quedado otras fuera. Pero al final me he decantado por esta Triumph no tanto por convertirse en un icono del motociclismo de los años 60 sino sobre todo porque, hoy día, sigue siendo un referente en el diseño clásico, con muchas imitadoras. Es obra del diseñador Edward Turner y fue presentada en el Motor Show de Londres. 6. Honda CB750 (1969). Solo os digo una cosa: Si tuviese que elegir a una y solo una moto de esta lista como la más influyente y clave en la historia, elegiría a esta preciosa y bien diseñada y fabricada Honda CB750. Muchos la llaman la "Moto del Siglo", con razón. La CB750 fue la primera moto de producción en serie con un motor de cuatro cilindros, aunque casi os diría que eso es lo de menos. Es que esta moto ofrecía un nivel de prestaciones, precio y calidad absolutamente inigualable en su época. Cuando llego a los USA, mercado dominado por las “ásperas” y vibrantes H-D Honda se publicito, con gran éxito, como la moto “de la buena gente” … Los que iban en H-D eran malos o “malotes” y en cambio, los de las Honda, eran buena gente. 7. Ducati GT (1971). A lo mejor soy un pesado, pero insisto con el tema de la importancia de los motores en las motos. Y os hago la misma pregunta de antes: ¿Cuál es la mayor seña de identidad de Ducati? Seguro que vosotros, que sois muy listos, responderéis que el motor en V con distribución desmodrómica. 8. BMW R90 S (1976). BMW tenía fama de hacer motos de calidad, casi indestructibles, pero pesadas, lentas y aburridas… Y todo eso cambio. BMW preparó una moto para Daytona, la R90S Daytona. Su motor bicilíndrico de 900 cm3 refrigerado por aire se potencia hasta los 67 CV gracias a dos carburadores Dell'Orto de 38 mm. Llegaba a los 200 km/h y pesaba 215 kg. Tuvo gran éxito en competición y en la calle, se vendieron 17.465 unidades, mejoró la imagen de marca de BMW y hoy en día valen un dineral. 9. Suzuki GSX-R (1986). Esta moto está aquí por derecho propio, porque es un referente y yo diría que lo más parecido a una moto de carreras matricularle que un fabricante de motos de gran serie se ha atrevido a vender. Cuando probé la primera de todas alucine, me sedujo su excelente motor de cuatro cilindros de 750 cm3 y 106 CV, su chasis de doble viga que a mí me gusta llamar “tipo Cobas” y su ligereza, 175 kg. Una moto única. 10. Honda Africa Twin 750 (1988). La Africa Twin se aprovechaba de la imagen de las grandes Trail en el Raid más famoso de la historia, el París-Dakar. Y entró por la puerta grande, porque el debut del prototipo se saldó con una victoria y luego llegaron otras 3 más seguidas… mejor publicidad imposible. La estética de la moto de calle era muy similar a la moto de carreras, el peso rondaba los 200 kg y la potencia era de 60 CV. Pero lo más importante era la calidad de fabricación u construcción y su fiabilidad, clave en una moto aventurera. Cuando nos referimos al actual éxito de las grandes Trail todo el mundo mira a la BMW GS y se olvida, creo que injustamente, de la “África ruin”. Conclusión. Hay dos Honda y tres BMW… pero porque se lo han ganado. Aun así, me reitero en lo dicho, faltan motos, pero todas las que están en la lista se lo merecen… ¿o no?

Nhlanhl Sehume speaks to the CEO of Curro Holdings, Cobus Loubser about the company's results. The group, established in 1998, reported that net cash generated from operating activities climbed 9% to R875 million in its year to end-December, when pupil numbers picked up an average 2% to about 72 000. Tuition fees rose about 12%, with the company passing on average fee increases of about inflation (6%) plus 2%, while it also benefited from a change in pupil mix. Its operating margin picked up to 17.8% from 15.5%, but profit still slumped 86% to R32 million. Finance costs increased by about a quarter, while impairments more than doubled to almost R400 million.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But before we dive in, we want to take a moment to thank all of our listeners for their continued support. You're the reason we do what we do! 24 Hours of Rolex Cheating Scandal: In a shocking turn of events, IMSA reports that Ferrari and BMW were caught cheating during the 24 Hours of Rolex. Both manufacturers were found to have manipulated their cars to produce more power, leading to a strong performance in the race. As a result, all affected cars will be stripped of their points. IMSA is now working closely with manufacturers to ensure a fair Balance of Performance (BOP) and holding teams accountable for any violations. What are your thoughts on this recurring issue? Nissan's Influence on the Porsche 959: Did you know that the legendary Nissan R32, also known as the "Godzilla," owes its existence to Porsche's iconic 959? It's true! Nissan purchased a 959 from Porsche with the intention of dismantling it to study its technology, including its all-wheel-drive system and engine tech, for the development of the R32. Porsche tried to prevent Nissan from obtaining the car, but ultimately failed. This fascinating piece of automotive history raises some interesting questions. What are your thoughts on Nissan's bold move, and how it influenced the development of the R32? Porsche's Venture into Cell Phones: Porsche has recently entered the world of cell phones with a folding device that supposedly pays homage to the design of a 911 hood. However, opinions on this collaboration with a Chinese cell phone maker are divided. Some see it as a clever marketing move, while others question the relevance of such a product for a brand like Porsche. What are your thoughts on Porsche's foray into the world of tech?

Nick Rearick's Skyline had already been imported and was quite possibly the cheapest R32 in the US at the time. He embarked on a journey over three winters to restore, upgrade and customize the car similar to an old school classic. The 1990 Skyline R32 was completely torn apart, gutted and put back together painstakingly all by Nick in his garage until it came out as his dream car.

In this episode, we give a brief overview of the R410A phase-down dates and the challenges with transitioning to R32 & R454B, and we review the ASHRAE 34 classification of A2L refrigerants.

But what exactly are A2L refrigerants? Named after their ASHRAE safety classification, A2L refrigerants exhibit mild flammability, low toxicity, and a low global warming potential (GWP). This category encompasses hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs) and HFO blends. A2L refrigerants mirror the operational characteristics of legacy refrigerants while presenting a safer profile compared to ammonia and hydrocarbon-based refrigerants. As the world grapples with climate change, A2L refrigerants have emerged as a substitution for older, high-impact refrigerants such as HFCs and HCFCs in air conditioning and commercial refrigeration setups. A2Ls are pivotal in aiding businesses to meet global objectives outlined in agreements like the Montreal Protocol and the Kigali Amendment, as well as regional regulations such as the U.S. AIM Act, Canada's ODSHAR, and the targets of the EU Green Deal.

In this live podcast, we discuss the current R410A phase-down schedule and a review of the properties of the two via low GWP refrigerants R32 and R454B. YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/InsightPartnersHVACTV Insight Partners Website: www.insightusa.com Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tony-mormino View current line card: https://www.insightusa.com/manufacturers Connect to Insight Partners on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/insightusa Tony Mormino at Insight Partners: tmormino@insightusa.com We talk about the status of the current EPA refrigerant regulations, including the EPA's NOPR (notice of proposed rule), the critical milestones for R410A equipment manufacturing, and the current R410A phase downtime schedule. We also show the properties of the two via R410A alternatives, R32 and R454B. In particular, we show the meaning of A2L refrigerants as explained in ASHRAE 34-2022, Designation and Safety Classification of Refrigerants, which is a shorthand way of naming refrigerants and assigning safety classifications based on toxicity and flammability data. We delve into the benefits and drawbacks of each low GWP refrigerant, exploring factors such as its global warming potential, energy efficiency, and flammability. Refrigerants play a critical role in the functioning of air conditioning and refrigeration systems. They are responsible for transferring heat from the indoor or outdoor space to the refrigeration unit, allowing for temperature control. However, the impact of refrigerants on the environment is a growing concern. Many commonly used refrigerants have high global warming potential (GWP), contributing to climate change. In recent years, there has been a push to develop and adopt refrigerants with lower GWP, leading to the emergence of new refrigerants with unique properties. Two such refrigerants are R32 and R454B. R32 is a pure hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant, while R454B is a blend of HFC and hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) refrigerants. While these refrigerants offer lower GWP, they have unique properties that distinguish them from each other. Both have similar performance to R410A. Both have a similar performance to each other. Both are classified as A2L, mildly flammable refrigerants. Both have a lower GWP than R410A. R32 is a single-component refrigerant. It is a mildly flammable A2L refrigerant, meaning it can ignite in the presence of an ignition source but only under certain conditions. R32 has a low GWP of 675, making it an attractive option for environmentally conscious companies. R454B is a zeotropic blend of HFC and HFO refrigerants, 69% R32 and 31% R1234yf. It is a mildly flammable A2L refrigerant with a low GWP of 466. R454B was developed as a potential replacement for high-GWP refrigerants like R410A. For those of us who have been around awhile, you may be very familiar with R22 and even R12. Past Transitions were driven by Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP).

In this video, we're going to predict and reconcile the auction results of a rare 2004 Volkswagen R32 on Bring a Trailer, and you can play along like the Price is Right hosted by John Polnik and Michael Deeb. But the question is, why would anyone pay top dollar for an old Volkswagen? And how much does the fact that this car only has 100 actual miles add to its value? This R32 is finished in Reflex Silver Metallic over black leather, and it's powered by a 3.2-liter VR6 engine mated to a six-speed manual transmission. The listing boasts that this car is one of only 5,000 examples produced for the US market, and it's essentially brand new with only 100 miles on the odometer. It comes with a clean Carfax report, original window sticker, and all the original books and manuals. But will all these features and low mileage be enough to command a six-figure price tag? And how much demand is there for a 17-year-old Volkswagen, even one as rare and desirable as the R32? Join us as we analyze the market trends, historical data, and buyer psychology to predict the auction outcome of this R32.

In this episode, we discuss the impending phase-out of R410A refrigerant. As the industry shifts toward more environmentally friendly alternatives, we compare the physical properties of two viable replacements: R32 and R454B. We delve into the benefits and drawbacks of each refrigerant, exploring factors such as its global warming potential, energy efficiency, and flammability. Join us as we explore the complex world of refrigerants and the exciting innovations driving the HVAC industry forward.

Nissan Skylines are one of the most popular cars from the 90s and 2000s for modification, but throughout all those years we've never seen one quite like this.Use ‘PODCAST75' for $75 off your first HPA course here: https://hpcdmy.co/hpa-tuned-inCapable of 975HP at 28PSI, Dennis O'Malley had the XR32, a Ford Barra powered R32, dialed back to 850HP at 23PSI for this year's Turbosmart Flying 500 at the World Time Attack Challenge in order to make the car a little more ‘user friendly', but unfortunately didn't get a good run due to some ongoing fuel pressure issues. The Micks Motorsport-built Barra runs Siemens Deka 2400cc injectors, Haltech Elite 2500 ECU, Ford Falcon T56 box with S1 Shifter, forged internals and a Plazmaman Plenum is used along with a 6 piece cast manifold, but due to the nature of the swap pretty much everything else has been custom made to fit.The RB26 and RB30 platforms are a solid choice when it comes to making good power with driveability, but the original owner of this R32 GTST turned GTR Nissan Skyline wanted to do something a little bit different, and a 4L Ford ‘Barra' engine was squeezed in and a RWD only setup used due to packaging issues. The car is originally a GTST, but a GTR rear end has been fitted along with GTR sills and front panelsThe traction issues discussed are in part due to what was supposed to only be a temporary turbo setup of a Precision 6766 turbo with an undersized rear housing which narrows the usable rev range, but there are future plans to remedy this issue and also fit some bigger rubber under the rear at the same time to get to power the ground.BARRA: For those unaware, the Barra is a 4L DOHC, VCT equipped inline 6 produced in and by Ford Australia originally for their ‘Barramundi' BA Falcon and SX Territory model lines, and although nowhere near as common, a V8 variant was also produced. A turbocharged XR6 Falcon variant of the I6 Barra also came from the factory, but at 326HP it was well short of the 975HP capable build here.If want to learn how to tune EFI start here instantly, and for free: https://hpcdmy.co/tuneb

Diversified mining company African Rainbow Minerals (ARM) on Thursday paid higher dividends, reiterated its full commitment to climate change mitigation, and outlined the start of its intended shift towards the implementation of renewable energy. In affirming the Johannesburg Stock Exchange-listed company's alignment to climate change mitigation and meeting the challenges confronting the environment and humankind, ARM executive chairperson Dr Patrice Motsepe told the presentation covered by Mining Weekly: “As a company, we're committed to combating climate change.” (Also watch attached Creamer Media video.) ARM is a member of the International Council of Metals and Minerals (ICMM), which Motsepe highlighted as an outstanding association of the world's largest mining companies with world-class commitments to environmental protection and climate change mitigation – “and we're very happy with the progress that's being made there”, Motsepe added after declaring a final dividend of R20 a share to bring the total financial year (FY) 2022 dividend to R32 a share, up on the R30 share of FY2021. The amount to be paid is R4 493-million. “We're committed to paying dividends while pursuing quality growth and maintaining a robust financial position,” Motsepe added. Following a significant increase in operating profits at the ARM Coal operations amid cash generated from operations rising by R706-million to R8 508-million, ARM Coal loans owing to Glencore Operations South Africa have been fully settled, with Motsepe describing ARM's transitioning out of coal as being “part of the responsible and really focused transition to clean energy . to make the world a better place”. Significantly higher export coal prices drove a R1 178-million increase in ARM Coal headline earnings to R928-million, compared with a R250-million headline loss in FY2021. ARM CEO Mike Schmidt told the presentation that ARM's commitment to environmental, social and governance (ESG) matters were aligned with the principles as set out by ICMM. “In terms of climate change, ARM aims to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. We are currently busy with a number of initiatives and introducing various pathways to deliver on these commitments,” Schmidt added. In response to Mining Weekly's question relating to ARM Platinum signing an agreement for the supply of 100 MW of solar energy, ARM Platinum CE Thando Mkatshana said the 100 MW would address 33% of the division's total electricity consumption in the next three years. “We are also considering further upgrades in terms of other options to look at reducing our power supply from Eskom to renewables,” said Mkatshana. ARM Ferrous CE André Joubert added: “In our operations in the Northern Cape, we're well advanced with a feasibility study in terms of also supplying our mines with solar power and collectively we're looking at just over 80 MW.” Environmental impact assessments are underway to open the way for the building of the solar plant. “Ours will be slightly different. They will be what we call ‘behind the meter' installations because currently the Eskom distribution network in the Northern Cape doesn't have capacity to yield power at the moment, but we're making very good progress in that regard,” said Joubert. Schmidt said a big component was reducing ARM's dependency on diesel. “Over the next five or seven years, we will look at alternative trucking methods, because of the prohibitive cost of diesel and also from a carcinogenic point of view.” In that regard, battery electric frontend loaders and battery electric haul trucks had already been deployed at the group's Black Rock mine in the Northern Cape's Kalahari manganese field. “We've got three of each of those already deployed underground and we're testing them to see how efficient they are, and they are going to save diesel and also the heat that diesel trucks generate underground, which ultimately then would require less ventilation and through that more energy savings as...

00:00 - Show Open - Mitsubishi Galant VR4 - Part 2Today we're going to talk about what to look for when buying a Galant VR4 and what kinds of issues these cars have. Since there weren't that many imported to the US, we will also talk about some alternate used AWD sports sedans and hatchbacks with similar performance and pricing that you might want to check out if you aren't able to find a Galant VR4 that's right for you. 01:20 - Finding A Galant VR4 TodayBased on the number of Galant VR4s imported to the use (3,009) and its age, these cars will not be easy to find - especially in good to excellent condition. One option is to consider buying a Japanese Domestic Manufacturer or JDM version of the Galant VR4. Under the 25-year rule, you can import one from Japan or Australia or New Zealand to the US (or buy one from a dealer that imports such cars. But keep in mind that it is a right-hand drive car and the exotic feel of sitting on the wrong side of the car might here in the US may last only a few weeks. After that you might be thinking you made a mistake, so before you buy, ask your doctor if right-hand drive is right for you. For my money, if I was going to buy and drive a right-hand drive car here, I would make it something I could not get a version of the US (e.g. a an R32 - or soon - an R34 Skyline GTR, or maybe a gull-wing Autozam AZ1). I would put up with right-hand drive for one of those cars. 05:30 - Problems You Might Encounter With a Galant VR4In my 16-year ownership experience, I found the Galant VR4 to be a very bullet-proof car, but these are all 30+ year old vehicles now, so some typical issues come with any car of this vintage. Anything that rotates or involves friction eventually wears out - this is the story of all used cars, so not a surprise. Idle fluctuation - some Galant VR4s will experience idle "hunting" as they age - mine did. Throttle body cleaning seemed to help.FYI - the counter shaft belt broke on my car one time. I'm not sure if this is a model issue, or just something that happened only to my GVR4, but it can cause major engine damage if it knocks the timing off a tooth or worse, it brakes the timing belt. That did not happen in my case, but as a precaution I had the timing belt replaced when the counter shaft belt was replaced. Again, FYI.Be careful when selecting aftermarket suspension parts - I bought some springs and shocks that were punishing, so choose wisely my young Padawan. Transmission - I never had an issue with mine, but I always treated it with respect (avoid drag race no-lift shifts). If abused syncros can become graunchy. (is that a word?... is now, I guess)Diodes in the ECU can leak and cause running/drivability issues. This is a real thing - I had this experience twice during my 126,000-mile ownership experience. Luckily the fix was relatively simple and the guy who did the fix was cheap. Your mileage may varyRust is not your friend - This applies to any older car, and the GVR4 is no exception. Just avoid the pain of rusted examples. The Galant VR4's 4G63T engine is robust, but... it is not forgiving if you don't do maintenance items like the timing belt/water pump service on time and within the mileage limit. Don't wreck your Galant VR4! Some body parts can still be sourced for the E39A Galant VR4 through wrecking yards, GalantVR4.org, and possibly Ebay, Craigslist, FB Marketplace, etc., but it is not easy. 17:45 - Cars Similar To The Galant VR4 That You Might ConsiderCelica Alltrac Turbo - Two versions were sold in the US.

The focus of ferrochrome company Merafe Resources in 2022 will be on renewable energy projects, along with efficient operations, cash preservation and well-ordered capital allocation, CEO Zanele Matlala said on Tuesday. The year 2021 has been one of spectacular recovery for the Glencore Merafe Pooling and Sharing Venture. In announcing its highest profit after tax since the formation of the venture in 2004, the JSE-listed Merafe provided new insight into the PGMs-from-chrome-tailings project at the Kroondal mine, and also outlined three distinct areas of green energy development involving: the conversion of on-site offgas from the venture's smelters into clean electricity; on-site 'behind-the-meter' solar and wind projects capable of generating 150 MW of green electricity; and the evaluation of quotations for the phased execution of up to 800 MW of virtual wind and solar power purchase agreements. China continued to dominate stainless steel production, accounting for about 57% of global output. Ferrochrome demand in 2021 mirrored global stainless steel production, with Indonesia slightly decreasing China's dominant share of global output. World ferrochrome production increased by 15% to 14.4-million tonnes, with most of the production growth coming from South Africa (32%) and India (30%). Chrome ore imports into China increased by 5% to 15-million tonnes, with South Africa making up 80% of the chrome ore sold into China. The average ferrochrome prices received in 2021 were around $1.08/lb compared with $0.72/lb in 2020. Chrome ore prices, on the other hand, only increased modestly, with upper group two prices averaging about $140/t, compared with $129/t in 2020. Merafe FD Ditabe Chocho reported a 75% year-on-year increase in ferrochrome revenue and a 33% increase in chrome-ore revenue. “We also accounted for small revenue arising from PGMs concentrate sold from December 2021,” said Chocho. The processing plant being built to recover PGMs from chrome waste has a capacity of 21 000 t a month. To date, R32-million has been spent on developing it and a further R23-million is due to be spent this year to take the plant to completion. The PGMs concentrate it produces is being sold to PGMs customers that have smelting capacity. “We believe the PGMs plant will be fully commissioned in quarter two. We've started to treat material and we are seeing benefits from that,” said Glencore Alloys CEO Japie Fullard, who declined to give the grade of PGMs produced. “We do have an offtake. You will understand that the chrome content in the PGMs concentrate is fairly important and we do have an agreement with a PGMs producer that we are selling that product into the market,” he added. Chocho reported that the financial return on the PGMs project would be sufficiently higher than Merafe's weighted average cost of capital of 11.4% after tax, with a four-year payback based on current pricing assumptions. DECARBONISATION IMPORTANT Fullard described the reduction of Scope 2 emissions specifically as being “very important”. Agreements had already been signed with suppliers for the conversion of on-site offgas into electricity, Fullard said in response to Integrated Managed Investments portfolio manager Leo Altini. With pilot circuits being run, the operation was well on its way to achieving the best efficiencies in the turning of carbon dioxide to electricity. “That's the first focus area for us and there's a lot of work we're doing there,” said Fullard during the question session covered by Mining Weekly. Capital investment in the second behind-the-meter solar and wind project greening area would commence within the next year, and quotations were being evaluated for the various virtual power purchase agreement contracts, for which multiple financial instruments were under consideration. It was reported that Rustenburg smelters Furnace 5 is back in operation while the Lydenburg smelter remained on care and maintenance. The foreseen benefits of develo...

Just a decade ago the sky was blue, the sun shone every day and you could buy any car you wanted for sixpence.  So why didn't we?  This week, Mike joins Tony again to kick off the new series by dwelling on the recent past!  All the cars we could have bought – nee should have bought and a few that we're glad we didn't.  That, plus much more of course, in this week's Car-Chum. 

It's almost clichéd to say SA's municipalities are poorly run. Virtually every Ratings Afrika and Auditor-General survey reminds us of this. The evidence is clear for all to see in the state of our pavements, roads, water and power outages, and signs in disrepair….which all paint a grim picture of local government's deteriorating financial management. Releasing the report, titled "Not much to go around, yet not the right hands at the till”, the late Auditor General Kimi Makwetu revealed that Only 8% of municipalities received a clean audit, and on average they took 180 days to pay creditors. Irregular expenditure exceeded R32 billion – up from R24 billion in the previous year. On a national level, we may applaud the signs of tentative turnaround, but it is at municipal level that the battles will be fought. Against this backdrop one wonders what choice voters have to staunch the bleeding come the 1st of November? To discuss this burning question Michael Avery is joined by Mike Schussler, independent economist at economists.co.za; Charl Kocks, a director of Ratings Afrika; John Dludlu, CEO of the Small Business Institute & Natasha Doren, Senior Consultant at Consulta

※ 本文章发布于订阅号：百车全说，订阅号阅读更加方便，欢迎关注好久没聊性能车了，相比动辄百万的奔驰AMG、宝马M、奥迪RS，今天来聊一款更多人买的起的小钢炮，也就是不久前刚在上海车展亮相的国产第8代高尔夫GTI。“GTI”这个名字在玩车圈子里有多重要，不用我说了吧？就是乐趣，就是信仰，就是干，即使你不玩车，多少也该知道它的大名，或者在马路上被它干过。这车目前还没有公布正式售价，但是必定不会和早前的7.5代相差太多，估计在23.99万左右。与此前几代一亮相就被大呼真香不同的是，这次国产8代GTI一亮相就被很多人喷，连发动机都懒得换，换汤不换药，但只要你去仔细了解一下就会发现，8代除了有一个更漂亮的壳，在一些看不见的、关乎机械素质的地方，还是有提升的，但与其说是提升，不如说是“补课”，这些都是我们今天会聊的，为什么将提升说成“补课”？我对8代GTI的前景其实抱有担忧，市场环境不同了，相比前几代，如今的8代GTI不仅面临电动车在动力上的“降维打击”，同时还要面对新兴国产性能车、小钢炮的挑战。好像留给我们去吹的，只剩下没多少人理解的驾驶乐趣、信仰传承，以及相对成熟的改装潜力了，这同样是我们接下来要聊的，8代GTI还值得我们去冲一把吗？相比7.5代有哪些提升？为什么说8代是在补课？首先说一个没有提升的地方，也是被喷的最多的地方，国产的8代GTI用的并不是海外版本那台EA888 Evo4 2.0T发动机，而是选择沿用此前的EA888 Gen3 2.0T发动机。所以，我们看见国产8代GTI依然是220马力、350牛米，而海外版本是245马力、370牛米，最强的Clubsport版本可以达到300马力、400牛米。同时为了满足国6B，这台发动机还取消了此前的进气歧管喷射，只保留了缸内直喷，喷油压力为250Bar，而8代GTI海外版本最高350Bar。当然，EA888 Gen3 2.0T发动机改为缸内直喷其实不用过多纠结，因为海外早已这么做，环保所逼，这么做颗粒物排放是降低了，但是动力也降低了，以至于国产8代GTI只能做到7.1秒破百，比之前7.5代还慢0.2秒，这里面也有8代比7.5代稍重的原因。不过，大众官标一直比较保守，实测8代可以跑到6.8秒，但7.5代实测也可以跑到6.5秒，更别提海外Clubsport版本可以冲到6秒以内，6.8秒放在今天，连宝马3系、奥迪A4L的2.0T高功率版本都跑不过，也就比迈腾、帕萨特之流快一点。虽然动力差点意思，但在玩家眼里不算问题，都说飞度不改不如推下海，那GTI不改，不如直接推进马里亚纳海沟了，GTI的改装潜力有多大，我们待会再说。冷水泼完了，来说说国产8代GTI相比7.5代有提升的地方，先说玩家们最关心的机械素质，看完你就知道为什么8代GTI是在补7.5代落下的功课了：国产8代GTI换上了高R和S3上的DQ381 7速双离合变速箱，终于和海外版本一样了，之前国产7.5代采用DQ380，而海外分不同版本采用DQ250或DQ381。相比DQ380，DQ381传动效率更高一点，质量也更稳定一点。但最重要的是，DQ381支持四驱，也就是说硬核玩家现在想要前驱改四驱，再也不用像7.5代那样移植变速箱了，理论上可以直接上四驱。一直以来，GTI无论动力做到多强，前驱一直是制约动力发挥的枷锁，换装DQ381对于那些准备将GTI玩到顶、玩到极致的重度发烧友来说是好消息。但是，国产8代GTI只配备了普通高尔夫全系标配的XDS刹车式模拟限滑差速器，而海外版本的VAQ前桥电控限滑差速器依然缺席、不可选配。高尔夫GTI作为一台前驱车，在极限过弯状态下大概率会出现转向不足，即推头，往往动力越强推头越明显，而VAQ可以在转向时帮助外侧轮获得更多扭矩，同时降低内侧轮打滑，提高车身的可控性及稳定性。而XDS说白了就是电子系统通过刹车去模拟出来限滑差速器的效果，肯定不如VAQ这种实体限滑差速器，这点后期只能通过改装解决了。这个问题已经广大车主被吐槽几年了，当初7.5代是因为国产与海外版本变速箱不一致，存在技术难度，所以国产没有配备VAQ，如今国产、海外都是一个型号的变速箱，还有什么理由？给个选装也好吧？接着是转向机，此前国产7.5代GTI惨遭减配，采用与普通版本一样的2.7圈“买菜”转向机，而8代回归了欧版设定的2.1圈运动转向机。也就是说转向比更小了，转向手感理论上会更加灵活、紧致，对于GTI这种追求操控直接的小钢炮来说算是个大buff。与此同时，8代GTI车身高度比普通版本降低8mm，弹簧磅数也提升了15%，DCC自适应悬架系统依然是标配，从舒适到运动，悬架阻尼分15段可调。之前由于7.5代采用2.7圈转向机，导致原先转向机与DCC的匹配受到影响，即转向手感与底盘回馈的匹配度变差，毕竟2.1圈转向机才是原配，这次8代在这方面应该会有所改善。所以，国产8代GTI的提升，更多是尽可能在回归GTI原有的样子，将以前7.5代缺少的、阉割的东西都补了回来，但不得不说没有VAQ前桥电控限滑差速器依然是个遗憾。不过还有一个好消息，8代GTI在达到国6B的同时，并没有加装GPF颗粒捕捉器，所以声浪多少还是保留了一些，没有像大部分性能车惨遭毒手，运动模式下原地轰踩油门依然有轻微的噗通噗通回火。但是根据消息，2022年生产的车就要加装了，话说回来，有几个买GTI的不会去动一下排气？至少对于二阶程序，保证进排气通畅是必须的，高密度三元头段以及GPF这种堵住排气的元凶肯定不能留。再来说说一眼就能看见的提升，这些就不是补课了，而是实实在在的提升：一是外观更漂亮了，8代GTI在普通版本基础上加入了蜂窝进气格栅、五点式LED雾灯、“风火轮”的轮圈，其中格栅和轮圈都是延续7.5代的设计。与7.5代不同，原先屁股左下的“GTI”标，被移到了正中间，同时被喷成红色，大众可能觉得这样左下就空出来了，所以加了个“380TSI”的标上去。也许是8代普通版本已经非常运动了，所以我总感觉8代GTI相比之下的差异化没那么明显，辨识度没以前那么强。二是内饰，8代高尔夫主打数字化，所以8代GTI自然也会跟上，各种屏幕往上堆。10.25英寸液晶仪表，有转速表中置的GTI专属主题，同时表底也从260KM/H升至280KM/H；中控屏幕，与普通版本的顶配一样是10英寸的，但是据体验过试装车的人说依然卡顿。此外，还有运动方向盘和运动座椅，这个座椅相比7.5代有明显提升，变成桶形座椅了，中间是经典的格子布，外面一圈Alcantara。三是配置，依照目前的消息，8代GTI的配置会比较高，方向盘加热、前排座椅加热、前排座椅记忆、抬头显示、哈曼卡顿音响据说全是标配。难道说是动力不够，配置来凑？为什么没用海外版本的新发动机？对我们来说是好事还是坏事？原因很简单：成本。EA888 Evo4 2.0T发动机在海外投产不久，尚未引入国内，这个时间点上市的国产8代GTI想要用到海外版本的新发动机，要么从海外小规模进口新发动机，要么在国内单独再开一条新发动机的生产线。无论哪种，成本都非常难以控制，毕竟GTI一个月的销量能不能破百都是问题。所以，大众选择了最为划算的一条路生产8代GTI，即与普通版本共线生产，并沿用老的发动机。但是大众在国内的确有关于新一代发动机的计划，比如普通版本采用的1.4T发动机会在2022年换装成全新1.5T，也许8.5代GTI出来的时候EA888 Evo4 2.0T发动机就已经在国内完全投产了。没用新发动机对我们来说是好是坏？首先原厂状态下的动力确实不如海外版本，但是旧发动机在世界范围内有着极其成熟的改装经验，有无数人在前面试错，也被证明潜力巨大。只要进排气等硬件跟上，然后选择大厂的程序，还是比较稳定的，也只能这么安慰准车主们了。为什么GTI那么有名？它在玩车圈子里代表什么？为什么GTI在玩车的圈子里这么出名，其实我认为主要包含几个因素：“历史传承”、“性价比”还有“造型”，而其中最为关键的，就是GTI的历史传承，因为相比于从4代高尔夫才开始正式诞生的高R，GTI则是从初代开始就已经诞生。时间拉回到1975年，那时候初代GTI面世，尽管就已经搭载了一颗110马力的1.6L四缸发动机，百公里加速只要9.2秒，可能现在看来这个数据根本不值一提，但是你要知道，即便是后来在头文字D里秒天秒地秒空气的AE86，出厂搭载的4A-GEC发动机也不过128匹马力，而这个4A-GEC发动机是1984年8月才正式生产，所以回头想想，初代GTI的110马力着实有些恐怖。而大众之所以要做GTI，主要原因是为了去参加比赛，结果比赛规定需要有5000台市售同型车才可以参赛，大众公司一看没辙，于是就造了5000台GTI出来卖，顺便还可以看看这台车的市场反馈，结果，这5000台车在面世之后，车迷们都疯狂了，而且当时很多人都以为只有5000台配额，于是车迷们、二道贩子们都纷纷抢购。后来，大众一看这车卖的这么好，于是就开始不断的生产、加推，以至于这台基于初代高尔夫打造的GTI，从1975年诞生开始，一共生产了大约53万辆，大众公司在靠这台车赚钱的时候，也靠这台车赢得了口碑。但是，远在大洋彼岸的美国，这个初代GTI却被人吐槽的体无完肤，一方面是因为大众在1975年把高尔夫引入美国市场的时候，给换了一个“RABBIT”的名字，没有继续使用高尔夫的名号，换名字也就算了，还为了迎合所谓的美系审美，给这车加了一个奇丑无比的加长型保险杠，并且到了1980年的时候，还把高尔夫标志性的圆灯换成了方灯；另一方面，直到1983年的时候，大众才在美国推出RABBIT GTI，可是发动机却只给用上了91匹马力的1.8L发动机，要知道在1983年的时候，欧洲不仅已经上市了2代高尔夫，而且用的就是这颗1.8L发动机，美国人看完直呼内行，不愧是大众，时隔8年姗姗来迟的小钢炮，不仅用的是普通版本的发动机，而且套的还是个旧壳子。除了在当时的美国市场玩了一出“区别对待”之外，大众对于欧洲市场的消费者，也化身成为“韭菜收割机”，在1983年欧洲市场推出2代高尔夫之后，大众在1984年发布了2代GTI，这台车在进气栅格周围还是保留了一圈红边，一样有“GTI”三个字母，一样基于普通高尔夫进行强化打造，但是，这一代的GTI只有112匹马力。要知道，初代GTI是1975年面世，换言之大众用了接近10年的时间，只是给它的后继车型在排量上提升了0.2L，动力提升了2匹马力，百公里加速只快了0.3秒。但是，当年的欧洲消费者还是咬牙买单了，毕竟这是GTI，结果在2代GTI上市还没过多久，买了车的消费者傻眼了，大众在1986年推出了一台升级版车型“高尔夫GTI 16V”，之所以叫这个名字，主要是大众给这台车配上了双顶置凸轮轴16气门发动机。当然，对于当时那些还没有买2代GTI的准客户来说，这简直是天大的喜讯，因为现在GTI 16V上市，他们就不用花冤枉钱去买那个只比上一代提升2匹马力的普通版本了，毕竟这台16V有139匹马力，而且在GTI标志的下面，还增加了一个16V的LOGO，头灯也变成了4个圆形大灯，你开这台车在马路上溜达，车迷们都会像你抛来羡慕的眼神。但是，那些兴冲冲去买了GTI 16V的车主还没来得及高兴多久，大众公司就在1988年推出了“GTI G60”，而且这G60强化的更狠，在之前16V的基础上，不仅给加了一套机械增压套件，使得这台车能迸发出160匹马力，而且还给配了一套15寸的BBS轮毂和一套RECARO运动座椅，简单来说一句话，出厂就是改装车。如果你觉得这就是极限，那我只能说你还是小瞧了大众，因为他们在1989年又推出了限量71台的“GTI G60限量版”，不仅将发动机数值调高到了210匹马力，而且还用上了自家的四驱系统。所以，如果有人问我，高R的历史要从什么时候开始算起，我认为不是那台搭载2.8L VR6发动机的3代高尔夫VR6，更不是后来4代高尔夫R，而是这台2代GTI G60限量版，只不过那时候还没有“R”这个称呼。到了1992年的时候，3代GTI推出，只不过大众又向世人展示了一下什么叫做“新瓶装旧酒”，这台车虽然在各个方面提升都挺大，并且还配备了安全气囊、预紧式安全带、ABS防抱死系统等等安全配置，但是发动机却是在上一代16V车型的基础上，用扩缸的方式做出了这颗145马力的2.0L发动机。当然，3代GTI在1997年的时候结束了它的历史使命，因为那时候4代GTI面世了，从此，GTI进入了“涡轮时代”，只不过4代GTI除了涡轮化之外，总让人觉得有些平平无奇，似乎光芒都被那一代高尔夫R32给抢占了。如果说4代GTI离我们还比较遥远的话，那么这台车的后继车型，也就是5代GTI则是跟我们距离很近，因为这台车不仅是首款进入国内市场的GTI，而且从这时候开始，大众给GTI用上了双离合变速箱，打破了历代GTI都是手动挡的传统，如果你现在运气够好，还能在二手车市场里找到5代GTI，而且还是原装进口的。再往后的6代GTI，则更为我们所熟知，因为在2010年3月的时候，6代GTI由一汽大众正式国产上市，此后的7代和7.5代GTI和现在的8代，也是由一汽大众进行生产和销售。所以，纵观整个GTI的历史，你会发现从1975年开始至今就没有断代过，虽然大众公司把整个高尔夫的车型越做越大，但是GTI我觉得还是保留了当年的“屌丝味道”，使得消费者可以用较少的支出，就能换来不俗的驾驶体验和驾驶乐趣，并且通过自己的双手，去打造出性能更强、更有自己个性的小钢炮，同时在小钢炮逐渐四驱化的今天，能有这样一个还算传统的前驱钢炮，确实也能吸引不少玩家。高尔夫GTI应该怎么去改？既然聊到了GTI，那么势必要聊一聊汽车改装，或者我们换一个委婉一些的说法，叫做“优化升级”或者“释放潜力”，而依照常见的改装逻辑，简单来说就是“更低、更快、更帅”。首先我们来说“更低”。对于很多性能车玩家而言，原车的避震器高度实在是太高了，简直就和SUV一样，所以不少玩家都会去选择更换避震器的方式来降低车身高度，一方面可以满足自己的操控需求，另一方面则是可以提升外观的美感。简单来说，最入门的就是短弹簧，把原厂的避震弹簧替换掉；然后是高低软硬都不可调的避震器，比如倍适登的B12套装；接着是普通的绞牙避震，比如天域的SAZ；最后是高端的绞牙避震，比如KW V3、欧林斯DFV这些。当然，你也可以选择气动避震，也就是我们常说的空气悬挂，只是这东西养护起来确实比较费心，要定期做检查、做水汽分离等等，而且不少气动避震在运动性方面确实比较拉胯，更多还是用来凹造型，俗称“花盆组选手”。其次，我们来说“更快”。很多人在追求“更快”的时候都会陷入一个误区，就是先做程序、后换硬件，实际上发动机程序的调教和硬件应该是相互配合的，对于大多数入门玩家而言，所谓的“特调程序”只是一个赚你钱的借口，与其去相信所谓的特调程序，不如去选择一些大品牌，比如APR、REVO、AW（不是国内那个AW，是正经德国产的Abteilung Werkswagen）、ACR、MTM等等。除此之外，千万要记得一句话，那就是“跑的快更要刹的住”，所以对于车辆圈胎和制动系统的升级，也是必不可少的，甚至可以说圈胎和刹车的优先级，是高于ECU刷写的。对于圈胎和刹车的选择，我的建议是和程序选择一样的，就是在你对于相关知识没有什么了解的情况下，就挑知名度高的品牌去买，这里不是说国产锻造轮毂或者国产品牌的刹车不好，只是这里面水太深，一般人把握不住。一般入门级的改装，直接选择雅泛迪、迈斯盾、IFG等铸造或者旋压轮毂就可以了，如果你想再高端一点，国产的MMX、FACEWHEELS、ACE、ATMOS等等也是不错的选择，或者美国的ROTIFORM、NICHE、ROHANA等等，也可以看看日本的ENKEI或者英国的3SDM、ISPIRI，包括现在德产的BBS其实价格也已经亲民很多，所以也是一个不错的选择……当然，如果你就认日本BBS、RAYS、WORK、OZ、HRE之类的大品牌，只能说多留心，别买到假货就行。刹车也是同理，你听说过的BREMBO、AP、ALCON这些都可以选择，一样不要贪便宜买到假货，另外就是现在很多大品牌的刹车上面都有二维码，可以扫码来看真假。最后，就是我们说的“更帅”。这一点其实见仁见智，毕竟对于外观、内饰的什么更多取决于每个人不同的眼光，一般来说，对于车辆外形的改装无非就是更换包围、加装尾翼、加装风刀，夸张一点的弄一套宽体，当然，换圈胎、换刹车、降低车身高度等等，也能提升外观上的颜值，包括不少人贴改色膜，其实也是为了车子更帅，然后去进行改装。当然，贴改色膜的时候一定要做好心理准备，就是很多时候你看到贴完改色膜之后很帅的车子，其实跟改色膜的关系不大，主要是车子改的好。这个价位除了GTI还有哪些选择？那么，如果想玩这种小钢炮，我们除了GTI还有哪些选择？说实话，如果你早几年提出这样的问题，那我可以给你列举出包括福克斯ST、奥迪A3 45TFSI、宝马120i（进口两厢版）等等选择项，但是这些车子目前都已经没有新车在售了，所以如果你想用二十多万的价格去买一台新车，而且还要符合小钢炮的属性，我能想到的只剩下领克03+、领克02 HatchBack以及凯迪拉克CT4。首先我们来聊一聊18.58-24.88万的领克03+，其实排除掉那个冠军定制版，这台车顶配的价格只要22.88万。领克03+属于一台值得称作“国货之光”的产品，不仅发动机参数达到了254马力/350牛米，而且配备了代号“AWF8F45”的爱信8AT变速箱，并且领克03+还有博格华纳的四驱系统，这在二十来万的小钢炮里，属于越级的配置，更不用说这台车的内饰做的确实漂亮，坐进车里之后满眼都是ALCANTARA翻毛皮包裹，而且还有运动座椅，我就想问一句，有谁愿意去拒绝自己车里装满了翻毛皮呢？但是，领克03+相比于高尔夫GTI而言，确实少了一些传承感，毕竟这车能拿来吹牛B的故事，就是WTCR夺冠，并且你去选择03+的前提，除了要垂涎于这台车的性能，还必须能够接受这台车的外观造型设计。接着我们来聊一聊领克新出的02 Hatchback，这台车目前售价还没有公布，而目前领克02的2.0T版本定价16.68-16.88万，个人猜测这台领克02 Hatchback的价格有可能和低配的领克03+差不多，也就是18.58万左右。相比于高尔夫GTI而言，领克02 Hatchback有着和领克03+同款的动力总成，还有和领克03+同款的圈胎，同时还有比领克02更夸张的外形，而且车辆外形不仅是两厢车的设计，还有真皮内饰和橙色缝线，整台车从配置和观感上来说，确实比高尔夫GTI看起来豪华很多。当然，领克02 Hatchback也不是那么十全十美，或者说这台车的小钢炮味道还是有点欠缺，一方面是因为这台车并不带“+”号，所以在性能、内饰、外形上，都没有03+那么夸张；另一方面，领克02 Hatchback实际上是基于领克02这个紧凑型SUV打造，所以这台车的车内坐姿会偏高，很难给你传统小钢炮那种“贴地飞行”的感觉；最后，这台车还有一个问题，那就是如果你开着领克02 Hatchback出去洗车，你觉得洗车店老板会按SUV的价格来收费，还是按普通轿车的价格来收费？聊完了两台领克，我们最后来聊一聊定价23.97-25.97万的凯迪拉克CT4。其实我最初很纠结要不要拿CT4来进行对比，因为依照传统的眼光来看，CT4这种三厢后驱轿车其实很难称的上是钢炮车型，但是看看这台车的性能和售价，还有凯迪拉克CT4一直主打的运动调性，我觉得似乎也不是不能拿来进行比较。相比于高尔夫GTI而言，凯迪拉克CT4首先是一台后驱车，还有50：50的前后配重，在同级别、同价位中进行对比，可以说“只此一家、别无分店”，并且凯迪拉克CT4的运动氛围做的确实很到位，偏沉的转向、偏硬的悬挂……这些都能让你很直接、很灵活的去和车辆进行沟通，从驾驶的质感和乐趣上来说，不输于高尔夫GTI这种小钢炮。但是，我最为感到担忧的地方，就是凯迪拉克CT4的动力，现在CT4上面那颗237马力/350牛米的LSY发动机，确实有点拖了后腿，尽管这台车之前还推出了官方5.9s的程序，但是回头看看凯迪拉克ATS-L上面那颗279马力/400牛米的LTG发动机，不仅拥有着同级别中最暴力、最嚣张的动力参数，而且出厂状态下就能做到6.2s的百公里加速，如果你再进行程序刷写，可以毫无压力的成为“5秒俱乐部”的会员。综合来说，凯迪拉克CT4也好，领克的03+或者02 Hatchback也罢，它们和高尔夫GTI之间其实很好选择，只要想明白自己要的是啥就可以了，想要后驱就去买CT4，想要四驱就去买03+，想要空间大一点就去买02 Hatchback，想要味道纯正一点的小钢炮，那就去看看高尔夫GTI。现在的GTI是不是已经没什么优势了？那么，现在的GTI是不是真的已经没有什么优势了，我觉得要分角度去看待。如果你只在意车辆的百公里加速成绩，那么GTI确实没有什么优势，因为现在的电动车把车辆的加速性能门槛拉的很低，而且顺带把价格也给拉低了，这些电动车的诞生，使得GTI在原厂状态下的零百加速有些不够看。比如之前我们聊过的极氪001，起步价20来万的电动车，能做到百公里加速4秒内的成绩；又比如最近被推上风口浪尖的特斯拉Model 3，你也只需要花费和GTI差不多的价格，就能拥有百公里加速5.6秒的性能；还有比亚迪汉EV、小鹏P7高性能版等等车型。要知道，对于大多数人而言，什么操控、改装、下赛道、排气声浪……这些都离的很遥远，与其在意这些，倒不如弄一台能在红绿灯路口可以一下子蹿出去的车，只不过，如果你选择的是特斯拉，蹿出去之后能不能刹得住就是另一回事儿了。但是，如果你从另一个方面去看，你会发现GTI依旧有它自己的优势。首先是设计，按照同价位的车型去寻找，你会发现很难找到第二台像GTI这样的纯种两厢小钢炮，就像我们在前文说的，即便领克推出了02 Hatchback，那也是一台SUV降低车身之后的产品，并非纯种的两厢小车，而对于钢炮玩家而言，如果车子不是一个纯种的两厢车设计，又怎么能对得起小钢炮的名头呢？其次，GTI有代际传承、有不错的性能、有极大的后期改装空间、有不俗的驾驶乐趣。换言之，如果你很在意的“情怀”这两个字，特别喜欢GTI给你带来的驾驶乐趣，并且想要不断的去把这台车变成自己理想中的样子，那么GTI确实是一个很不错的选择，哪怕你开着GTI在路上被各种崩哭，当你看到方向盘上“GTI”三个字的时候，当你看到自己车头那一抹红的时候，你也会心满意足，然后默默的念叨一句“马路不是赛车场，有本事咱们赛道见”。可以添加微信46415254加入我们的社群音频图文更新在订阅号：

State-owned electricity utility Eskom argued on Thursday that it required additional revenue of R23-billion for the upcoming financial year to remain a going concern and told the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (Nersa) that further tariff increases, beyond the 5.22% already approved for next year, were required to enable it to migrate to financial sustainability. Nersa is currently hosting public hearings as part of its deliberations on how to implement a regulatory clearing account (RCA) balance that had already been approved, as well as how it should respond to supplementary applications by Eskom arising from two recent adverse court rulings. On November 5, the hearings focused exclusively on the implementation plan for the liquidation of the R13.27-billion RCA balance arising from a determination made earlier in the year for the 2019 financial year. The RCA is a claw-back mechanism that is used to adjust the tariff, which is set ahead of time using cost and sales assumptions, to the actual costs and sales that materialised during the period. For the 2019 financial year, Eskom applied to recoup R27-billion and was granted R13.27-billion. Later in the month, the regulator will consider two supplementary applications arising from court rulings relating to the RCA balances approved for the 2015, 2016 and 2017 financial years and the review and setting aside of Nersa’s revenue decision for the 2019 financial year. Eskom is applying for a further R26-billion in RCA balances for the three years, having already been granted R32.6-billion, and R5-billion for disallowed costs in the 2019 revenue determination. In parallel, Eskom is seeking an execution order for the automatic reintroduction of a R23-billion equity injection in line with a July 28 judgment, which found the Nersa acted illegally when it removed a R69-billion government equity injection from Eskom’s allowable revenue. The utility argues that the order should not be negated by Nersa’s appeal, as the regulator had already conceded on the merits and was only disputing whether the court erred in not remitting the decision back to it for implementation. Presenting during the virtual hearings, Eskom GM for regulation Hasha Tlhotlhalemaje indicated that Eskom would not seek to secure all these amounts on April 1, 2021, but that an additional R23-billion was required. She argued that all other levers – including shareholder support, cost cutting, recovery of outstanding debt and illegal payments and a reprioritisation of capital expenditure – had been exhausted, leaving only the lever of tariff increases to facilitate its financial stabilisation. The hearing was confined to the implementation of the R13.27-billion RCA balance, which Tlhotlhalemaje argued should be liquidated in full from April 1, 2021. However, she used the platform to make the case for a larger R23-billion revenue increase, noting that, besides the R13.27-billion balance, there were several other RCA amounts that had not yet been implemented and could be implemented. Even without the implementation of the additional RCA amount, Eskom’s request for the full R13.27-billion to be liquidated next year would translate to an additional 6.5% hike, or an overall increase of about 11.5%. The Nersa panel overseeing the hearings, which are being chaired by fulltime regulatory member for electricity Nhlanhla Gumede, pushed back, however, with several panel members questioning whether the hike being sought would not retard South Africa’s recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic. The panel was also not happy with Eskom conflating outstanding determinations that would flow as a result of recent court cases with the specific decision it needed to make regarding the liquidation of the R13.27-billion RCA balance. Nersa would make its determination in this regard later in the month and would accept written comments from stakeholders up until November 13.

JSE-listed precious metal miner Sibanye-Stillwater on August 14 hosted a memorial lecture honouring the 44 people who were killed in the Marikana shooting tragedy in August 2012. Sibanye CEO Neal Froneman says the shadow cast by the Marikana tragedy remains to this day and adds that the incident was an inflection point in South Africa and in the mining industry. Sibanye acquired platinum miner Lonmin, which was the owner of the mine at the time, in June 2019. The Marikana massacre involved the most lethal use of force by South African security forces against civilians since the advent of the country’s democracy. The shootings took place on what was the 25-year anniversary of a nationwide South African miners’ strike. The Marikana massacre started as a strike at the mine owned by Lonmin in the Marikana area, close to Rustenburg, but turned into a violent incident between the South African Police Service, Lonmin security and members of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM) on the one side and striking employees on the other. Thirty-four mineworkers were killed on August 16, 2012, at Lonmin Marikana operations, when the police shot them at a koppie near the Nkaneng informal settlement. A further 78 were injured and hundreds arrested. The workers, led by rock-drill operators, had waged a week-long wildcat strike demanding a minimum monthly salary of R12500. They rejected the NUM, the dominant union at the time, and elected a workers committee to represent them in putting their demands to Lonmin. In total 44 people were killed during the violent strike – ten people, including two Lonmin security officers and two policemen, had been killed a few days earlier. Froneman says Sibanye has a vision for the renewal of Marikana, and by delivering tangible and sustainable programmes for the benefit of local communities around Marikana, a new legacy of healing and hope can emerge. Over the years following the tragedy, Lonmin implemented wide-ranging changes based on the shortcomings identified by the Farlam Commission and industry best practice. Steps by Lonmin included establishing the 1608 Memorial Trust, the employment of family members of deceased employees and the donation of land and completion of a hostel conversion process. Sibanye continues its support through the trust, which supports about 141 beneficiaries at various education levels. To date, the trust has spent R32-million on educational assistance. From Sibanye’s side, the company has handed over six homes to widows of those who were killed. The homes have been renovated or newly acquired, while a further 19 houses will be handed over before the end of this year. Sibanye also continues to provide employment to the spouses or a chosen family member of those who died during the massacre. Speaking during the memorial lecture, Archbishop Thabo Makgoba said the Marikana massacre is an important event to remember so that the mistakes that led to the devastating events between August 12 and 16, 2012, are never repeated again. He stated that South Africa continues to be plagued by high levels of corruption, racism and gender-based violence, which are as destructive as a pandemic and must too be resisted. “The societal issues around Marikana are the very history of South Africa, to which we must join forces to change.” Froneman mentioned that the company decided to host a memorial lecture because the only way to move forward as a company, an industry and as a society, is to "reconcile with our past and effectively deal with a lack of trust by remembering what went wrong and have reconciliation of those events, and never allow them to happen again”. South African advocate and former Public Protector Thuli Madonsela commented that the Marikana massacre happened because “we forgot to remember our ugly, injust past and the legacy it had left with us. “We forgot to heal and we forgot to focus on renewal. When we commemorate Marikana, we say ordin...

Seguimos encerrados, pero queremos seguir con nuestros vídeos para ayudar al hacer más llevadero el confinamiento. Así que hemos decidido hacer el vídeo que muchos estabais reclamando…. Un vídeo sobre coches japoneses… No sobre los mejores ni sobre los más espectaculares ni los que hicieron historia… simplemente, los que mas me han gustado de los que he probado… No es fácil elegir solo cinco coches japoneses. Pero tenía ganas de hacer este vídeo porque incluso alguno me ha dicho “como se nota que no te gustan los japoneses”… ¿qué no me gustan? ¡Tengo uno! Y cuatro de mis últimos cinco coches han sido japoneses. Y solo la crisis me impidió encadenar cinco seguidos. Verás que antes de empezar con mi lista vamos a nombrar algunos de los coches que podrían estar aquí, por estricto orden alfabético de marca: - Honda S2000, uno de los descapotables más bonitos de todos los tiempos. -Mazda RX7, un verdadero mito, el máximo con motor Wankel y además precioso - Mitsubishi 3000GT, quizás un coche algo adelantado a su tiempo y, aun hoy día, una buena compra. - Mitsubishi Evo, en cualquier generación, un verdadero icono de los rallyes. - Mitsubishi Montero, para mi el mejor TT de la historia y multivencedor del Dakar - Nissan 300 ZX twin turbo, o mejor Fairlady, su nombre japonés… ese frontal de faros carenados es imponente. - Nissan 350/370 Z, ambas versiones son muy parecidas, una maravilla. Lo conozco bien, tuve uno. - Nissan Skyline, el R32 del 89, sobre todo en su versión GT-R. Me gusta más por su nombre de Godzila, un modelo ideal como base a preparaciones. - Subaru Imprezza, otro de os referentes en el mundo de los Rallyes. - Subaru SVX, un coche raro, muy futurista para 1991, pero espectacular y con un encanto especial - Toyota 2000 GT, precioso, el primer japo en aparecer en una peli de James Bond. - Toyota Supra, la versión de 1993, un coche que aún hoy día resulta llamativo. - Toyota Land Cruiser, me gustan todas las versiones, pero la primera me vuelve loco… un verdadero coche universal que puedes encontrar en cualquier rincón del mundo. Y vamos, como dicen los ingleses, con nuestra Short list. Pero esa la tenéis que ver en el vídeo.

While the rest of the world is getting in supermarket fights over toilet paper, life at Just One Lap carries on. Lesego, who is only 24, is ready to start their investment journey. This week we hold their hand through their first tax-free purchase. We explain what tax-free accounts are, what ETFs are and why we like to go for a diverse, global investment.  If the investment world is new to you, you don't want to miss this episode. The video below is a deep-dive into tax-free investments, presented by Chuckles himself.  If you're buying ETFs at the moment, enjoy the sale. Subscribe to our RSS feed here. Subscribe or rate us in iTunes. Win of the week: Lesego I am completely clueless regarding tax free savings accounts. I went onto the easy equities app but I have no idea which ETF so even select or how everything actually works because I would like to invest before the end of the financial year. I listened to the podcast and they mentioned it won't be enough having just a tax free account so I would like to open a retirement annuity fund as well but have no cooking clue how to even delete a company for that. Jaco  Let's assume you are 35, earning R240,000 and have R33,000 pa to contribute to a TFSA or RA. Assuming fees and growth are the same, there's no difference between the two, since both funds grow tax-free until withdrawal.  If you reinvest the tax saving from the RA back into the RA, the RA value will naturally be higher at the end of the term due to the additional contributions. The higher amount will give you a bigger savings pot to draw an income from.  Is the higher savings amount available at retirement offset by the income tax payable in retirement on income? You need to look at the tax saving on the contributions and the tax payable on the income. Tax saving on contributions: A 35-year-old earning R240 000 pa will have a marginal tax rate of 26%. The tax saving/deduction on the R33 000 contribution is R8 580 (tax saving = contribution*marginal tax rate). The tax saving is 26%, which is equal to the marginal tax rate of 26%. So on contributions, your return on the saving of R33 000 is R8 580 (26%)  Income tax payable: At retirement age 60, if you keep your income at R240 000, your marginal tax rate will still be 26%. But the tax you pay on your retirement income will be taxed at your effective tax rate. A marginal tax rate of 26% is equal to an effective tax rate of 13.55% (the rate at which you pay tax). The effective tax rate is lower than the marginal tax rate due to the rebates and sliding tax scales. So the "cost" on your retirement income of R240 000 is R32 512 or 13.55% (R32 512/R240000). Based on the above, the tax saving on RA contributions is 26% or R41 580 (R33000+R8 580), and the tax payable on retirement income is 13.55% or R32 512. Because the tax saving is > the tax payable, contributing to an RA is net-net positive. I recommend if your marginal tax rate is above the tax-free threshold, and you are happy with Regulation 28 to first contribute to an RA.  The higher your marginal tax rate, the bigger the tax-saving, the bigger the benefit of contributing to an RA. If you have liquidity problems, earning an income below the tax-free threshold or want to increase your offshore/equity exposure, the TFSA is the better option. Joshua  What is the practical difference in taking money offshore using Interactive Brokers vs using EasyEquities USD Platform?  Do you suggest opening an offshore bank account and is this possible? The issue with the local banks offerings, for example FNB's linked Global account, is that interest is only earned at around 0.5%. Ollie In episode #178 you considered the options for a listener who was planning to move to the Netherlands. One of the options canvassed was the potential of leaving money in a TFSA in the event of a market decline prior to emigration.  One element of this approach not considered, is that the overseas jurisdiction may consider the account taxable, meaning that the tax-free benefit of saving through a TFSA will be negated from the moment that the person migrates to the new jurisdiction. This varies on a country by country basis but should probably be considered by anyone before planning on leaving money in a South African investment vehicle whilst living abroad.  Innes  Since I am a little risk averse given how high developed markets are - I decided to buy some of this NFGovi ETF in my TFSA (about 25%) to give it some more diversification and less risk (and to hopefully receive a better return than cash/interest due to it being linked to bonds). However, looking at the price graph over the last 6 months - the return has been the flattest thing I've ever seen. And the 5 year historical return looked so promising and consistent when I was deciding to invest! I thought that bonds (and bond ETFs) were supposed to be “more certain/safer” than equities and have a better return than cash. Why do you think the return for the govi has been so flat of late? Do you think this would continue to be flat if SA is downgraded to junk status? I know you referred to the Ashburton 1200 as one of your favourite ETFs - would there be a certain bond or bond etf you would recommend and why? Are bonds or bond ETFs maybe a waste of time given their low (and not so certain) returns? Maybe I should be buying bonds and not bond ETFs? What platform would you recommend using to buy bonds? (If you would recommend them at all). Hugo  I love the innovation behind the product, one which will hopefully create a revolution in the investment domain. I am a bit underwhelmed though with the fee structure of the product during the initial build-up phase of the portfolio. There are current providers who can offer RAs with fees less than 1.5%, (10X and Sygnia come to mind) from the first rand invested. Sygnia does there Skeleton 70 product for example at 0.55% all in. Why not invest with a cheaper provider until you reach an amount where Outvest become cheaper, then make the switch? For example: R1 – R 818 000 at Sygnia = 0.55% / annum R818 000 @ 0.55% = R4500 (Outvest cap) R 818 000 to infinity at Outvest = 0.55% (decreasing to 0.2%) We have to assume that the funds invested in are of course all the same – and I think we can argue that Reg28 investments, whether aggressive or moderate or low risk, will all more or less perform the same. Am I missing something? Eleanore  I would like to transfer my RA from Allan Gray to Sygnia. Both Ag & Sygnia's forms ask about a unit transfer. I'm not sure what to select. Assuming a unit transfer is possible in this case (for a transfer from AG Balanced Fund to Sygnia Skeleton Balanced 70 Fund), should I select this? Which is best, a cash or unit transfer? I don't want to make a mistake and diminish my Retirement savings at this point due to a transfer mishap. Robin I received an Insurance payout which I have placed in an Investec Fixed deposit, drawing a compound interest of around 7.5%.  We've bought two apartments off-plan in Cape Town, which will only be ready for handover towards the end of 2022. I've made upfront payments of 25% and 50% respectively on the apartments. These funds are sitting in the Conveyancers Trust Account drawing a 7.8% compounded interest per year. I am unable to touch this.  Would it be better to move the money that is sitting in my Investec account into one ETF or a group of ETFs for three years. Or should I hold these funds where they are at the moment?  My feeling was to keep it in a secure environment so I will be in a position to pay off the properties completely, and then draw rental income.  However, the income derived from the Investec investment will be taxable, which will be lumped together with my other SA rental based income. Together the total income will be around R320K for the year.  Should I put the R320K into my RA? When the time comes to settle the payment on the apartments at the end of 2022 I'll draw from my Unit Trust Investment to settle the difference, or repatriate funds from my overseas investment. If I keep it in the Investec fixed deposit I will end up paying around R63,853.00 in tax. One of your listeners from China (Podcast #169) was inquiring about where he can invest using Euros or USD. As an expat I use Internaxx - based in Luxembourg - https://en.internaxx.com  where I buy my international ETFs and stocks. I trust this will help your listener (sorry I don't recall his name I was listening while walking). Steven noticed we prefer ETFs to unit trusts and wants to know why.  Eugene is keen on opening a TFSA for his spouse. He's not keen on using EE, so he wants to know who else we can recommend.

Nesse episódio, Lucas e Gian falam sobre o cinema de animação infantil. Retomam brevemente a história das animações, que é anterior à do cinema, até o panorama atual, marcado pela predominância da computação gráfica. Depois, falam sobre a relação entre animação e pedagogia, mostrando com alguns exemplos como as animações tratam de temas relevantes para a formação da identidade e subjetividade e para as relações interpessoais. No final do programa, refletem sobre o papel dos adultos de referência (professores, pais, tios e outros educadores) no apoio a atitudes críticas em relação a essas narrativas.

TechCentral — In this episode of the podcast, Duncan McLeod interviews Intergreatme co-founder and CEO Luke Warner about how the technology start-up managed a R32-million fundraising round using crowdfunding platform Uprise Africa. Described as an “emergent regtech player”, Intergreatme wants to create a world where consumers no longer have to fill out forms. The company, which has already secured deals with local banks and telecommunications operators, hopes to remove the pain for processes such as Fica in financial services and Rica in telecoms. In the podcast, Warner talks about some of the implementations it’s been involved in, how it secures consumers’ private information and its expansion plans after the successful crowdfunding exercise. He explains how the company went about the crowdfunding to ensure it was successful and offers advice to other start-ups wanting to use this mechanism to raise capital instead of traditional venture capital or private equity. Integreatme attracted over 400 investors through Uprise Africa, though it also received five R5-million investments, making up the bulk of the R32-million raised. Many of those that invested were black women, raising the company’s black economic empowerment profile, something Warner hopes will help it work more closely with the public sector. Don’t miss the discussion!

Tax rebates, bonuses and inheritances really throw us for a loop. Most of us have every cent of our salary allocated to some higher purpose, but the moment we find ourselves with a big hunk of cash, we get in our own heads. We all know what we should do with the money, except because this is magical unicorn money we don't. We get questions about lump sum investments so often that we decided it's time to devote an entire episode to it. In short: the math says invest it all at once as soon as possible. If your emotions tell you to do otherwise, however, you should probably pay attention to them first. We talk about our friend Hendrik's blog tigersonagoldenleash.co.za in this episode. Andrew I just received 10 months worth of salary as a bonus. I currently have money invested in my portfolio. I'm trying to decide how to go about investing my bonus. Should I chuck the entire amount in now? (Keep in mind my TFSA is maxed out for 2018, and I plan on investing R33 000 on 1 March) or should I average it out over a few months? Also keep in mind that I have no debt. Win of the week: Nadia I listened to the show about my question and I just want to say thanks a million! You guys helped a lot with my decision and I have decided not to get involved with Forex trading. I first need to focus on my TFSA and make sure I understand all the ETFs I have chosen to invest in. Subscribe to our RSS feed here. Subscribe or rate us in iTunes. David Love the show. I have a question for you relating to picking a Global ETF. I have an Easy Equities Account and have access to investing in ETFs listed on the NYSE. I was looking at the Vanguard Total World Stock ETF on the USD account and comparing it to the Ashburton 1200 on the ZAR account. The TER is significantly cheaper for the Vanguard ETF – 0.1% vs. 0.45%. The weighting of the constituents of each ETF are quite similar although the Vanguard has over 8,000 stocks where the Ashburton has over 1,200 stocks which makes it attractive to have more exposure globally. My feeling is that in the long run, it's probably worth moving all my investment offshore (into USD) into the Vanguard ETF if I follow the concept of one ETF to rule them all because of the low cost of running the ETF. What risks other than a strengthen Rand or having a Will in place in the USA to transfer the funds in the event of death would you foresee? How would the tax on dividends / Capital Gains be affected? Hannes I recently received a severance package. This money is considered "tax free income" because of a SARS tax directive, which seems to be common with severance packages. It's been lying in a savings account, and I'd like to know what you think is the most tax-efficient way to put that money to work. I don't have any investments and no emergency fund. The savings referred to above is currently my emergency fund. The only debt I have is car debt, a monthly expense of R2400. No bond either. The amount is just enough to max out my TFSA for the 2018 tax year ending in February as well as settle my car debt completely, but then I have no more savings / emergency fund left at all. However I can quickly build up an emergency fund, or to rather contribute aggressively to my car debt with a monthly contribution if I decide to not settle. It seems crazy dropping a huge amount on my car debt to settle it considering the small monthly repayment, but it's also something I want to get rid of ASAP as it allows for more savings, less essential expenses and more cashflow when I'm rid of the repayment. The risk of course is that I will be stuck without savings / emergency fund for a few months until I can build it up again. I do have a credit card. Not quite sure what the best course of action is. Should I rather leave the debt as is and invest with this "tax free income"? Minnaar I would like to understand how a property-based ETF actually distributes the income that it gets from rentals? How does the ETF distribute this to holders of the product? Is it in the form of a dividend? Can you explain like I am 5 why some people think investing in REIT properties are a good idea in a TFSA? Dave I discovered that you can buy REITSs via unit trusts, exchange traded funds or standalones directly from your stockbroker or financial advisor or a site like EasyEquities.  I can see a sort of hierarchy here but just don't get it. Are earnings from REITs rental income or dividends? I can appreciate that if held in a property owning company the earnings would be in divs.  But if held by a unit trust how would rental earnings be paid? Phil I love this podcast and this a wonderful public service you're offering to all South Africa. Even though I'm in the UK and a lot of the advice can't be directly applied the thinking still applies and continues to push my thinking. I want to share stuff that changed my financial life which was given a wake-up call after I took a massive hit on RA when I financially emigrated and was confronted with just how far behind I was. Painful stuff, and wish I had a podcast like yours to point me in the right direction at the time. I wanted to share some references I use in the UK that I think would be very useful for reference in your offering to the public as well: - The go-to reddit (I know, don't take advice from unknown muppets, but it's good) for me is  /r/ukpersonalfinance/. In particular I love the UK Personal Finance Flowchart and it's interactive version (which is opensource on github btw...). This flowchart is awesome for visualising where you are on the maturity scale. Super helped my wife with her "O, fok!" moment. - The second source I love is  moneysavingexpert.com. It's a bit of a marketing-hidden-like-advice site, but it's got some gold-level guides on finance basics for people who were never shown how the basics work. - The more extreme sites are FIRE the based, but drastically shifted my thinking on what retirement means, in particular @firevlondon on twitter is an interesting feed I follow with monevator.com to frame my thinking on passive investment.   Melissa I already have some investments with Easy Equities, so just decided to move some funds around so that I can put the full R33 000 in for the 2018 tax year. I am a bit confused about the limit of R33 000 and the fees involved. When I bought my TFSA ETFs the admin/brokerage fees were deducted and my investment amount only shows as R32 877 (R123 admin fee). I know it is a small difference, but I would like to utilise the full R33 000 that I am allowed for the year. Easy equities however does not allow me to invest any more funds into this account. Do you have any clarity whether this R33k limit includes the administration fees? André I heard you say you had to re-open your FNB account because you have and FNB flexi bond. Not sure what the exact reason is but thought I will share this. You do not need an FNB account to withdraw from your FNB bond. I also have an FNB flexi bond and I nominated an account at a different institution and I have withdrawn from the bond directly into that account. Fanie I'm nearly 70 and earn the biggest part of my income from the following ETFs: PREFTX, PTXTEN and STPROP. You mentioned that because PREFTX consist of many banking pref shares there is a risk should we get downgraded to junk status by all the  rating agencies. I understand that a junk grading will affect our total banking system negatively in that interest rates will go up. What do you think will be the effect of a downgrade on my income from PREFTX. Chris What stops me from opening a tax free savings account with a overseas fund managers like JP Morgan, Investco, Black Rock etc? What are the tax implications for me as a non-resident in an international based etf tfsa? What are the risks and is it something worth investigating? Conette I am 55 and work for a big bank group, with lots of good benefits. My emergency funds sorted out and bond debt almost covered. I want to open a Tax Free Savings (ETFs) account with Easy Equities . I please need your assistance in my ETF selection? I intend not to 'touch' the investment in the next 15 to 20 years. Jo I am in the process of shifting my RA around and moving away from unit trusts and into ETFs. I started investing in an RA as soon as I started working, but unfortunately I thought they were very one size fits all and so it's all sitting in unit trusts with fees of around 3.8%. While digging more into finance I came across a TED talk by a doctor in Australia who pointed out that most people's retirement funds are invested in British American Tobacco (BAT). So I looked up the current funds I am invested in and my current unit trust, my work provident fund and the new ETF I was looking into for my RA all invest more than 1% into BAT. This is pretty disappointing to me. I can guarantee that a large percentage of the general populace wouldn't invest in tobacco if they had the option. And yet they are unwittingly helping fund the industry. I have tried to do some googling for green funds in SA but haven't really come across anything. I realize that I could just build my own RA by picking shares but would much rather choose an ETF. I would also not like to pay exorbitant fees just to avoid investing in unethical companies. Maybe I will have to suck it up and offset my investment in BAT with charitable donations to cancer research. ;) Jon-Luke Is it possible to transfer ETFs that you already own into your Tax Free Savings without having to sell them first? Rudolph wants to know if yield rise or fall with quantitative easing.

We're back for episode 76 of the Gears and Beers Podcast! The first bit of news we talk about this week is the official launch date of Mitch's favorite car, the new Suzuki Jimny. We then talk about Volkswagen only committing to one more generation of cars with Internal Combustion Engines as they're focusing on electric, and we briefly talk about the new LIME scooters taking over Brisbane. Then we talk about Nissan starting to remanufacture a selection of parts for R33 and R34 GTR's, adding to the existing R32 products. Then we talk about Rivian and their new electric vehicles targeting offroaders with an SUV and a Ute, which gets us talking about Elon Musk and Tesla. We then talk at great length about GM's new Silverado, and we have a split opinion on its styling. Joseph then talks about his future track day mods for his Toyota GT86, and his wheel crisis and Matt talks about his oil mistake. We then wrap up our 'Nameless Game' by discussing our favourite engines from the game, and we play one last round where we try and find the weirdest 4 cylinder cars.

The guys continue the discussion on the Nissan Skyline.  We are finally getting into the golden years with the R32, R33, and R34.  Lets Go!

As you guys know, we added an R32 to the Humble Mechanic fleet. If you saw the video “Everything Wrong With The R32″, you know it had a good amount of issues.  My goal with the car was to show you guys how to fix all the things wrong with it. One of the first […]

Episode 129-Urus Urus. If you make it to the end of the show, you'll probably never hear the name of the weird Lamborghini SUV without it being coupled by a spine-tingling shiver and part of your soul (if you have one…Dave) giving up and leaving. So yeah, besides spoiling Lambo names, Ian makes Dave say uncle. And by uncle, we mean what Mr. Old Man Infiniti Sedan really thinks of Ian's Boy Racer, Class Skipping, Bird Flipping, Track-honed R32. Go figure, he wound up blathering on and on about bicycles. Sheesh. You can take the ginger out of the sedan, but you can't take the old man out of the…wait, there's no good way for that to sound in the end. Anyway, lessons learned in this episode? Sure.

Episode 42-Erotic Gobble It's all about certainty this time around. Dave is certain he knows how to combat tailgating, we're all in agreement that the R32 is cooler than the GTI, and Ian is pretty damn sure on the exact circumstances of his imminent demise. Other things we know? We should stop worrying and learn to love the Mighty Car Mods Saab project, Dave's FMKcars is an all-time great, and Ian should probably be kept at a safe distance from any fish markets. Hey!
