determines the steepest step that a vehicle can approach

without its tail dragging.
The closer to 90° the better.
The
Foers Ibex

can drive over without its belly grounding.
The sharper this angle is the better.
In this case the LWB
Defender
(right) is resting on its chassis, the tyres barely touching the ground,
i.e. no traction.

Holden Astra Convertible Turbo(Highly recommended sports car), from $49,990
This European convertible is a stunning car in so many ways. It's a great drive (with high performance 147kw Turbo). It's practical and apart from a small boot has abundant room for 4 or 5 at a pinch. It's loaded with standard features: air, power windows / steer, cruise, 6 speaker CD, ABS, traction control, airbags & more. It also looks great! My Managing Director's lovely wife owns one of these & I have no hesitation in recommending this car to you. A true bargain for a high performance Euro Convertible.
