A new week naturally also means a new Techzle. Number 31 of this year again. It is packed with young timers. You can expect all this.
Tests and reports
In Techzle 31 you will come across a diverse range of tests. Thus, the new Seat Leon may once again prove itself. In contrast to last week, we now grab a bright red hatchback that can compete against the Ford Focus and Toyota Corolla. This trio was brought together because they have one thing in common: they make it possible for the driver to be a little more involved during the daily kilometers. But which one does that best? Stéphan is also sending the brand new Honda Jazz on the road for the first time and Marc Klaver is driving the fresh Audi A3 Limousine. Furthermore, the new i20 will be at Hyundai dealers later this year; We were one of the first to go with a prototype of the novice.
In addition, many young timers present themselves in number 31, such as a BMW 325i convertible from 2001, with which a trip is made throughout Spain. There is also an update of the young timer market: which cars are still driven a lot? Finally, we will continue with a new series of stories: ‘De Dijk’. Here we drive a lot on the country’s most beautiful roads. This week we drive a Mazda MX-RF on the road between Amsterdam and Enkhuizen along the former Zuiderzee.
Occasions
As you are used to, we also handle extensively used cars. Take a Smart City Coupé with 357,592 km experience. All kilometers traveled by the first owner. What does Joep think about it? Furthermore, an already iconic Opel is tied to the dynamometer: the Opel Speedster. Although the sporty appearance might suggest otherwise, he should ‘just’ do it with (originally) 148 hp from a 2.2 four-cylinder, but how much is left of that after roughly twenty years? Finally, a New Mini from the beginning of this century is completely cut in half: what to look for when buying a used one? In a five-page story, all the pros and cons are highlighted!
All this and more can be read in the latest Techzle. Prefer not to go? Order from the couch the latest song. Then he falls on the doormat within two working days.
