Beat exam blues, get vehicle into gear for winter holidays

With many families knee deep in school work and exams, there is something to look forward to – the long winter school holidays starting on 30 June. With temperate weather in many parts of South Africa, a winter vacation is the ideal time to get away without having to brave scorching temperatures or bloodthirsty mosquitoes.
Many companies in Polokwane specialise in ensuring that vehicles are roadworthy and safe to drive long distances.

People who enjoy discoveries, adventure and excitement during their holidays will find the new Renault KWID perfect for the job as its design strategy symbolises dynamic performance, robust strength and a taste for adventure.
The KWID seats five people comfortably, making it an ideal family vehicle. It also puts safety first with high safety Pro-Sense front seat belts, a driver side airbag and central locking system. The front disc brakes are equipped for all weather conditions and road surfaces, while the high mount stop lamp and audible parking brake warning give complete peace of mind throughout the journey.
The suspension system of the KWID is calibrated for optimum ride, handling and braking, providing for a comfortable, safe drive.
