Four Wheel Drive

Rokon 2x2.

| Special Promotion |

Loren and Patricia Upton, with Juan Rivas, made an all-land crossing of the Darien Gap using a Rokon Trail-Breaker two wheel drive motor-bike in 1995. This is but the latest of their many exploits in that region, Patricia having recently written an adventurer's guide to the Darien Gap

The Rokon Trail-Breaker is a true two wheel drive motor-cycle. Wide low-pressure tires (tyres) are fitted and a unique feature is the extra fuel capacity carried within each wheel. An automatic transmission is used and the weight kept down to 185lbs to ease man-handling over truly severe terrain (see above).

    eCars Spotlight 
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.
