The Nissan
350 Z was the most successful sports car launched in
South Africa this year. Now the Roadster is waiting in
the wings to open up new avenues for this meaty,
blue-blooded driving machine.
Judging by its looks, it’ll be more of the same from
Nissan next year.

Alfa Romeo
showed its lithe, elegant GT, simply called the Alfa GT.
It uses the three-comma-two litre V6 found in the GTA,
but in slightly de-tuned form to give a smoother power
delivery.
Power output is a hundred and seventy-six kilowatts,
transmission is a six-speed manual and… yes, the sleek
GT is coming to South Africa, possibly before year’s
end. |

Engines,
Cars under wraps, glamour. There was just so much more
to Auto Africa that we would have loved to devote the
next few programmes to the show.
Engine cutaways of turbodiesels and rotarys, SUVs like
this Volvo XC90 that bared its all, design studios at
Opel, game shows at Toyota and of course… glamour by
the truck-load!
A great event, and not only Africa’s biggest car show,
but one of world standard.
