New Ford Territory Dark Edition provides extra swagger
Several months had passed since my last encounter with the Territory. The Dark Edition offered a reminder of the Territory's virtues — and shortcomings. Power still comes from a 1.8 l turbocharged unit (138kW/318Nm), linked to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. The petrol engine gets the job done in acceptable fashion and while the gearbox shifts smoothly on the go, it errs on the clunky side at low speeds, noticeable in crawling Egoli traffic. The infotainment system is not a Ford SYNC4 setup, which is a brilliant interface, but seems instead to be of a nondescript variety likely used in many Chinese offerings. A weak point, if you are the kind of buyer who wants slick digitisation. These gripes were mentioned in previous interactions. But my kin seemed to be unreceptive to these criticisms voiced by their driver. Instead, they were impressed by the expansive cabin space, rear legroom and dual-sliding panoramic sunroof.

York Eyecatcher Rikki Tiki Tavi promises plenty
The son of Bungle Inthejungle was contesting the same maiden the Ryan team won with the smart The Strikin Viking 12 months ago and showed plenty of speed to be up with the pace throughout. His inexperience perhaps cost him when it mattered in the closing stages, as Ralph Beckett's Egoli kept on well to scoop first prize, but it was a performance that points towards a visit to the winner's enclosure at some point during his two-year-old season.
