Leisure Wheels Magazine - July 2017

In this issue

On our cover this month is a brand-new Ranger offering from Laz Performance. The company now offers South African Ranger owners an authentic M-Sport conversion for their Ford bakkies. The Ranger MS-RT is not only eye-catching, but offers a decent dollop of added performance as well. Great Wall Motors (GWM) recently launched its premium SUV brand, Haval, in South Africa. We took a road trip in its H2 compact SUV ahead of the vehicle’s official release. What happens when you transform an entry-level FWD Sorento into something, well, a tad more dramatic? You get the Leisure Wheels Project Sorento – one very attention-grabbing SUV. The vehicle made its official debut at the Nampo Harvest Show. Our road test for the month is the Volvo V90 Cross Country. Sleek and low-slung, this estate is an interesting alternative to a more traditional luxury SUV. On the technical side, we examine just what turbo lag actually is, and we give you some basic steps to follow when shopping around for a used 4x4. We’d be pleased if you also visited us online – we’ve completely revamped our website.
