Amazing rescue leads to top<br />
award for Sumner Lifeboat<br />
• By Tina Grumball<br />
A COASTGUARD crew has<br />
been recognised for their battle<br />
against atrocious conditions to<br />
save a crashed hang glider pilot.<br />
The Sumner Lifeboat Institution<br />
was awarded Rescue of the<br />
Year at the <strong>2022</strong> Coastguard<br />
Awards for Excellence.<br />
Said Coastguard New Zealand:<br />
“The skills of those crew members<br />
involved, both on and off the<br />
water, were exemplary and are<br />
a testament to the success of the<br />
rescue.”<br />
Around noon on July 25 last<br />
year, the Sumner Lifeboat Institution<br />
was called out by police<br />
to attend to the man who had<br />
crashed into Whitewash Head,<br />
Sumner.<br />
In changing wind conditions,<br />
the pilot had lost lift while flying<br />
over and ending up at the bottom<br />
of the cliffs.<br />
Crew<br />
member,<br />
Howard<br />
Nicholls,<br />
said the team<br />
knew the cliff<br />
well, but it<br />
Howard<br />
Nicholls<br />
was “quite a<br />
dangerous<br />
area.”<br />
“In that particular rescue,<br />
there was an onshore wind which<br />
basically means it’s creating a<br />
swell on shore so that makes it<br />
quite tricky accessing and getting<br />
out of the area.”<br />
Six crew members responded<br />
aboard the Hamilton Jet Rescue<br />
and Urquhard Trust Rescue – a<br />
jet ski. They were Blair Quane,<br />
father and son Dave and<br />
Finley Passmore, Tom<br />
Denman, Sam Bradley and<br />
Patrice de Beer.<br />
Said Quane: “We went around<br />
and located where he was and<br />
then . . . myself, and two other<br />
crew, swam into the shore.”<br />
“The conditions were rough<br />
but it wasn’t too bad.”<br />
For about one-and-a-half<br />
hours, one member on the<br />
shore, who was a medic, gave<br />
first aid to the victim who was<br />
conscious.<br />

Becoming Pakeha<br />
A journey between two cultures<br />
by John Bluck<br />
After more than 200 years of co-existence under the umbrella<br />
of a unique treaty, you might think things would be better than<br />
ever. In this perceptive and piercing book, John Bluck argues that<br />
Pakeha and Maori worlds grow ever more separate: the Aotearoa of<br />
today is a landscape of two predominant cultures, overlaid with so many others,<br />
fractured and more likely to erupt than Ruapehu. But has it always been this way?<br />
ENTER TO<br />
WIN<br />
THIS BOOK<br />
Becoming Pakeha follows the author’s life, growing up as a Pakeha in a Maori village<br />
in the 1950s, and illustrates how New Zealand used to be, the history and shared<br />
experience that shaped it. The book also discusses the discomfort of being Pakeha<br />
today, and how Pakeha might live with their past and get used to the wearing the<br />
name, until they find a better one.<br />
Looking at everything from failed models of bicultural harmony to what’s likely to<br />
bring the treaty partners together - or push them further apart - Becoming Pakeha is a<br />
timely read for anyone who wants to understand Maori-Pakeha relations in Aotearoa<br />
New Zealand today.<br />
Dawnlands<br />
by Philippa Gregory<br />
The spellbinding Fairmile series continues as the fiercely independent Alinor and<br />
her family find themselves entangled in palace intrigue, political upheaval, and<br />
life-changing secrets in seventeenth-century England. It is 1685, England is on the<br />
brink of a renewed civil war against the Stuart kings and many families are bitterly<br />
divided. Ned Ferryman cannot persuade his sister Alinor that he is right to return from<br />
America with his Pokanoket servant Rowan to join the rebel army. Instead, Alinor<br />
has been coaxed by the manipulative Livia to save the queen from the coming siege.<br />
The rewards are life-changing: the family could return to their beloved Tidelands,<br />
and Alinor could rule where she was once lower than a servant. Alinor’s son, Rob,<br />
is determined to stay clear of the war, but when he and his nephew set out to free<br />
Ned from execution for treason and Rowan from a convict deportation to Barbados,<br />
they find themselves enmeshed in the creation of an imposter Prince of Wales - a<br />
surrogate baby to the queen. From the last battle in the desolate Somerset Levels to<br />
the hidden caves on the slave island of Barbados, this third volume of an epic story<br />
follows a family from one end of the empire to another, to find a new dawn in a world<br />
which is opening up before them with greater rewards and dangers than ever before.<br />

Fields ‘excited’ to represent peninsula<br />
Tyrone Fields<br />
Sara Templeton<br />
• By Tina Grumball<br />
NEW BANKS Peninsula city<br />
councillor Tyrone Fields is<br />
following in the footsteps of his<br />
predecessor Andrew Turner.<br />
Fields was voted in as the ward<br />
councillor in the local body<br />
elections on Saturday and wants<br />
to continue the work of Turner,<br />
who served three terms before<br />
deciding to quit politics.<br />
“That’s really important<br />
because he was such a massive<br />
advocate and champion for the<br />
peninsula,” Fields said.<br />
Turner has taken up the role<br />
of Rod Donald Banks Peninsula<br />
Trust manager.<br />
Like Turner, Fields was The<br />
People’s Choice candidate. He<br />
won the seat with <strong>12</strong>39 votes over<br />
Libby Ornsby who received 1065.<br />
Ornsby represented Best for<br />
Banks Peninsula.<br />
In the other <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
News area ward, Sara Templeton<br />
was returned for the third time<br />
as Heathcote city councillor with<br />
52<strong>12</strong> votes.<br />
Fields said he was “absolutely<br />
elated and so humbled” to have<br />
been elected and was ready to<br />
take on the challenge.<br />
“People always say: ‘Oh, the<br />
Peninsula’s so small, there’s so<br />
few people’, but it’s also got some<br />
of the most complex environments<br />
that you can imagine in a<br />
city, and one that we really have<br />
to work very hard to preserve<br />
and to enhance.”<br />
Some of the issues at the<br />
forefront of his mind were<br />
the quality of roads, water<br />
infrastructure and what can be<br />
done to combat the effects of<br />
climate change.<br />
Said Fields: “There have been<br />
so many weather events that have<br />
hit the peninsula, and some of<br />
the really small communities,<br />
incredibly hard and we have to<br />
figure out how . . . we can protect<br />
our communities.”<br />
As for specific issues, Fields<br />
noted the example of arriving<br />
cruise ships in the summer<br />
which had been an incredibly<br />
decisive issue.<br />
“We’re entering some new<br />
territory there and we need to<br />
make sure we’re doing it right as<br />
well,” he said.<br />
Traffic management was<br />
something the city council will<br />
need to address, as well as the<br />
environmental impact of cruise<br />
ships.<br />
Fields was very happy with the<br />
community board results and<br />
said he was ready to work hard<br />
as a full-time councillor for the<br />
ward.<br />
“I’m so excited, I’m beyond<br />
excited.”<br />
Four new faces on community board<br />
FOUR NEW faces have been<br />
elected to the Te Pātaka o<br />
Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula<br />
Community Board in the local<br />
body elections.<br />
For the Lyttelton Ward,<br />
Cathy Lum-Webb won one of<br />
the two vacancies.<br />
Lum-Webb was a The<br />
People’s Choice candidate<br />
alongside Luana Swindells<br />
who scored a seat in the Mt<br />
Herbert Ward.<br />
Both recently succeeded in<br />
getting the morning public<br />
bus routes back to the bays.<br />
Rather than departing at<br />
6.25am or 8.50am, the No 28<br />
bus now leaves Rapaki <strong>Bay</strong> at<br />
7.15am which is a much more<br />
convenient time and route<br />
for students trying to get to<br />
school.<br />
Luana Swindells Cathy Lum-Webb Lyn Leslie Asif Hussain<br />
For the Wairewa Ward, Lyn<br />
Leslie was elected into the<br />
single vacancy.<br />
A long-time resident and<br />
marketing business owner in<br />
Little River, Leslie ran as an<br />
independent candidate.<br />
She had also been a member<br />
of the Little River Wairewa<br />
Community Trust since 2018,<br />
and was the online communications<br />
manager there.<br />
Asif Hussain scored one of<br />
two vacancies in the Akaroa<br />
Ward.<br />
Living in Goughs <strong>Bay</strong>, Hussain<br />
was a volunteer firefighter<br />
and board member for Akaroa<br />
District Promotions.<br />
With a background in tourism,<br />
indigenous studies and<br />
community development, he<br />
was also the founding director<br />
of the Sustainability and Resilience<br />
Institute who conduct research<br />
on regenerative tourism<br />
and support companies with<br />
digital marketing<br />
Members who were<br />
re-elected include Reuben<br />
Davidson for Lyttelton, Howard<br />
Needham for Mt Herbert and<br />
Nigel Harrison for Akaroa.<br />

Art works on offer at charity auction<br />
The Rotary Club of<br />
Ferrymead has been<br />
helping the community<br />
since 1993, raising money<br />
from various sources and<br />
channelling the proceeds<br />
back into the community.<br />
On Friday, the first of<br />
what it intends to be an<br />
annual event will be held<br />
– The Ferrymead Rotary<br />
Art Show. Committee<br />
chair Bob Thayer reports<br />
MORE THAN 30 local artists<br />
are contributing over 250 works<br />
of art for the event, with Colin<br />
MacLaren being the feature<br />
artist. They will consist mainly<br />
of paintings, but there will also<br />
be glass works, sculptures and<br />
other mediums. The event will<br />
be held at Club Redcliffs on<br />
James St.<br />

projects for the good of the<br />
local community.<br />
Some of the recent projects<br />
include:<br />
•Providing financial assistance<br />
to Te Aratai for its Positive<br />
Hauora and Resilience Programme,<br />
where year 7 and 8<br />
students are supported to build<br />
self-esteem, an understanding of<br />
themselves and their role in the<br />
community. It also teaches them<br />
how build positive emotions,<br />
such as gratitude and empathy,<br />
and how to generally improve<br />
their personal resilience and<br />
lifestyle.<br />
•Supporting young adults<br />
to attend the RYLA – Rotary<br />
Young Leader Awards. Those attending<br />
will experience growth<br />
and development as a leader<br />
and learn how to inspire others,<br />
develop their own personal skills<br />
and strengths, interact with and<br />
learn from inspirational business<br />
and community leaders, and<br />
advance their ability to operate<br />
and communicate effectively in a<br />
team environment<br />
•Supporting high school<br />
students to attend the National<br />
Science and Technology Forum,<br />
which is designed to assist<br />
students intending to pursue<br />
science, mathematics and/or<br />
technology courses at New Zealand<br />
tertiary onstitutions.<br />
•Providing teaching materials<br />
for the House of Science<br />
educational programme, which<br />
promotes scientific learning to<br />
students in an enjoyable and<br />
highly functional manner.<br />
•Providing meals for families<br />
at Ronald McDonald House.<br />
•Providing funds to assist the<br />
Estuary Fest.<br />
To be able to undertake<br />
these and other projects, the<br />
Ferrymead Rotary Club sources<br />
funds from the community and<br />
benefactors, such as the art show<br />
sponsors, which goes back into<br />
the community. The club looks<br />

‘You need to know what you’re doing’<br />
• From page 1<br />
“He was pretty bashed up,<br />
numerous broken bones and a<br />
concussion,” Quane said.<br />
They continued first aid until<br />
the rescue helicopter arrived. Manoeuvring<br />
him down the beach,<br />
they enabled him to be winched<br />
up and flown to Christchurch<br />
Hospital.<br />
“The problem<br />
we had then was<br />
the swell had<br />
come up quite<br />
considerably, so<br />
for us to get out<br />
the way we came<br />
in wasn’t going<br />
Sam<br />
Bradley<br />
Patrice<br />
de Beer<br />
to happen,”<br />
Quane said.<br />
They had to<br />
walk another<br />
200-300m along<br />
the base of<br />
the rocky cliff<br />
and time their<br />
escape between<br />
sets of the swell;<br />
when the waves<br />
were flatter.<br />
Then they had<br />
to swim one by<br />
one back to the boat.<br />
Quane said the rescue was<br />
unique as they did not normally<br />
have so much trouble getting<br />
back to the boat.<br />
“The conditions were probably<br />
some of the worst I would have<br />
Dave and Finlay Passmore<br />
been [in] in a rescue in that area<br />
before,” he said.<br />
Nicholls noted they treat that<br />
area with “a lot of respect and<br />
care . . . if you’re going into the<br />
area, you need to know what<br />
you’re doing.”<br />
Quane said the award was<br />
“unexpected” but good.<br />
“It’s a nice recognition of what<br />
we do in our spare time.”<br />
Said Nicholls: “It means a lot<br />
because we’ve been recognised<br />
as a unit across all of the units in<br />
New Zealand.”<br />
The volunteer crew is made up<br />
of about 30 members of all ages<br />
and skill-sets.<br />
Nicholls said they are on call<br />
24/7 to “make [themselves] available<br />
for whenever things need<br />
[them].”<br />
The man called Quane about a<br />
week after the rescue.<br />
“He spent a wee bit of time in<br />
Tom Denman<br />
the hospital . . . I think he had<br />
broken some ribs and again a<br />
concussion and things, but I<br />
think he was doing okay at that<br />
stage,” he said.<br />
The man thanked the coastguard<br />
for rescuing him and<br />
inquired about getting his hang<br />
glider back which was still stranded<br />
at the bottom of the cliff.<br />
Quane said he had taken a<br />
small inflatable boat out when<br />
conditions were better and<br />
retrieved it. He did not seem<br />
like the type of guy to stop hang<br />
gliding, Quane noted. He was “a<br />
die-hard.”<br />

Tough start for newcomers Peninsula<br />
COUNTRY cricket’s premier<br />
newcomers Peninsula-<strong>Harbour</strong><br />
received a baptism of fire<br />
on Saturday, suffering a sixwicket<br />
loss to Weedons on the<br />
opening day of the new season.<br />
Just days after a polar blast<br />
brought snow to the region’s<br />
alpine and low-lying areas,<br />
sunshine welcomed the start of<br />
the <strong>2022</strong>/23 Canterbury Country<br />
Premier One Day competition.<br />
Weedons, Darfield, Leeston-<br />
Southbridge and Sefton had winning<br />
starts at the weekend in the<br />
race for the Fulton/Wright Cup.<br />
At a picturesque Rhodes Park<br />
on the fringe of the Port Hills,<br />
home XI Peninsula-<strong>Harbour</strong>, who<br />
won promotion to the top flight<br />
last year, was upset by one of the<br />
competition favourites, Weedons.<br />
Opener Ben Cairns (34 runs off<br />
55 balls) looked solid at the top of<br />
the order on a greenish but pacy<br />
wicket, but didn’t have anyone<br />
stick around with him.<br />
And when Jack Parker removed<br />
him caught-and-bowled, as one<br />
of his four wickets, the home side<br />
were struggling, especially against<br />
the quality spin twins of the bigturning<br />
Blake Coburn (2/22) and<br />
left-arm orthodox Jeremy Benton<br />
(1/<strong>12</strong>), and were all out in the<br />
37th over for a sub-par score of<br />
<strong>12</strong>8.<br />
Defending the small total,<br />
the combined side got the start<br />
they would’ve talked about at<br />
the change of innings and had<br />
Weedons reeling early at 8/2.<br />
But James Richards showed<br />
his class with a fine half-century,<br />
with Todd Inness (25 off 33) and<br />
Benton finishing the job with an<br />
unbeaten 25 runs off 51 balls.<br />
Reigning champions Darfield<br />
thumped a disappointing<br />
Ohoka by nine wickets, after rolling<br />
the visitors for just <strong>12</strong>5.<br />
Jesse Frew and Liam Foulkes<br />
both snared three wickets in<br />
restricting a powerful batting unit<br />
to a meagre score that was never<br />
enough.<br />
Henry Shipley, who had a<br />
breakout season for Canterbury<br />
last year and was named player of<br />
the year along with best bowler,<br />
made an unbeaten 49, and was<br />
there with Nick Jenkins (47 not<br />
out) when they knocked off the<br />
win inside 17 overs.<br />

major milestones on Saturday,<br />
with the home team Leeston-<br />
Southbridge securing a hardfought<br />
win over Cheviot behind a<br />
match-winning unbeaten century<br />
from Harry Chamberlain and five<br />
wickets, including a hat-trick by<br />
ex-Dutch international and Canterbury<br />
Country cricket manager<br />
Tim Gruijters.<br />
The visiting Magpies made<br />
181/9 in their allotted 45 overs<br />
behind a well-made 46 from rising<br />
star Archie Redfern.<br />
Leeston-Southbridge timed<br />
their chase well, largely thanks to<br />
a superb knock from Chamberlian<br />
whose 101 not out guided his<br />
side to a five-wicket win with four<br />
overs to spare.<br />
Sefton crushed Oxford-Rangiora<br />
by 145 runs after an impressive<br />
all-round display.<br />
Batting first at Sefton Domain,<br />
the Seals made 217/5 in their 45<br />
overs, with contributions through<br />
the order, before rolling Oxford-<br />
Rangiora, which has picked up<br />
some Southbrook players after<br />
the ‘Brook’s struggles last season,<br />
for just 72.<br />

Treasures from the Past:<br />
The Royal Mail Coach<br />
NEWS 11<br />
THE BRITISH Royal Mail<br />
Coach service began in England<br />
in 1784 carrying mail and passengers<br />
between towns at regular<br />
intervals.<br />
The coaches were built to a<br />
Royal Mail standard, and were<br />
leased to a proprietor driver<br />
whose pay was dependent on<br />
keeping to the strict delivery<br />
times.<br />
The mail was kept in a lock<br />
box and secured by a Royal Mail<br />
Guard in a maroon and gold uniform,<br />
armed with a blunderbuss<br />
and two pistols.<br />
The security against being<br />
waylaid by highwaymen, along<br />
with the regular and fast travel<br />
schedule, attracted a steady<br />
stream of passengers prepared to<br />
pay the driver a premium for the<br />
service.<br />
This government guaranteed<br />
Royal Mail and passenger service<br />
spread to the Kingdom’s Australasian<br />
colonies, minus the maroon<br />
and gold guards, from the<br />
early to mid-1800s, and provided<br />
a model for public transport and<br />
mail delivery that would continue<br />
through to the 20th-century.<br />
By the mid-1860s numerous<br />
Royal Mail Coaches were in<br />
service throughout Canterbury<br />
The Royal Mail Coach, driven by Robert Harris, outside the Lyttelton Railway Station c.<br />
1907. Te Ūaka The Lyttelton Museum ref. <strong>12</strong>184.1<br />
https://www.teuaka.org.nz/online-collection/1132870<br />
and Banks Peninsula, often synchronised<br />
with the Royal Mail<br />
steamships that would call into<br />
ports around the region.<br />
A daily Lyttelton to Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> and return coach service<br />
was in operation from at least<br />
November 1890, run by Mr W H<br />
Teape of the Mitre Hotel.<br />
By 1905 this service had become<br />
a Royal Mail Coach route<br />
from Lyttelton Railway Station<br />
through to Teddington and<br />
return, driven by Mr F Pimm of<br />
Allandale.<br />
From 1906 through to at least<br />
1909, Mr Robert Harris was the<br />
proprietor of the Lyttelton to<br />
Teddington Royal Mail and passenger<br />
coach service.<br />
In our photograph we see the<br />
horses Glen and Mona with<br />

Having just taken on passengers<br />
and mail, with Mr John<br />
Radcliffe seated up front, the<br />
Royal Mail Coach daily service<br />
would shortly be on its way at<br />
precisely 9.30am back up the<br />
Lyttelton Rd to Allandale via<br />
Governors <strong>Bay</strong>.<br />
The daily run was repeated in<br />
the afternoon, leaving Allandale<br />
at 4pm precisely with the return<br />
journey starting from Lyttelton<br />
train station at 6pm.<br />
This important and regular<br />
public transport option, up and<br />
down the Lyttelton to Governors<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> Rd and beyond to Allandale<br />
and Teddington, via horse drawn<br />
carriage, continued through<br />
World War 1 until at least 1920<br />
with proprietor and driver Mr D<br />
Whitford.<br />
By the mid-1920s, however,<br />
most of the Royal Mail<br />
coaches that had played such<br />
a vital public transport and<br />
communications role throughout<br />
Aotearoa New Zealand had been<br />
replaced by motorised buses,<br />
automobiles, trucks and the ever<br />
expanding railway networks.<br />

JENNY HUGHEY explains what<br />
the council has been doing.<br />
The formal declaration of a<br />
state of climate emergency across<br />
Canterbury was one of the most<br />
serious, and colourful, moments<br />
in the regional council’s more than<br />
30-year history.<br />
CAN YOU<br />
HELP?<br />
A year ago this Saturday,<br />
at 11.49am, Environment<br />
Canterbury became New Zealand’s<br />
first council to proclaim such an<br />
emergency, formally dedicating<br />
itself to consideration of climate<br />
change at the heart of all it does.<br />
The declaration highlighted<br />
that all the work Environment<br />

According to a Madworld report<br />

by sea-level rise this century and<br />
our productive and protected land<br />
jeopardised by the arrival and<br />
spread of new, exotic weeds and<br />
pests from warmer climates.<br />
All these eventualities have<br />
to be planned and prepared for,<br />
and Environment Canterbury<br />
will remain in the vanguard of<br />
these climate change efforts.<br />
One example is the $40 million<br />
Waimakariri River flood<br />
protection project, completed<br />
late last year. The network of<br />
floodgates and stopbanks will<br />
protect half a million people and<br />
$8 billion of community and<br />
business assets from a possible<br />
“super flood”.<br />
The last major flood was in<br />
December 1957, when parts<br />
of Coutts Island in Belfast and<br />
Kainga were swamped by river<br />
flow peaking at 3990 cubic<br />
metres per second (cumecs).<br />
The protection scheme has been<br />
designed to defend Christchurch<br />
from a flood of as much as 6500<br />
cumecs.<br />
Environment Canterbury’s<br />
leadership of biodiversity and<br />
biosecurity programmes is also<br />
underpinned by climate-change<br />
concerns.<br />
Canterbury’s distinct braided<br />
rivers and unique wetlands face<br />
many challenges. The rivers form<br />
a vital ecological link and provide<br />
an abundant food supply and<br />
nesting grounds for 26 species of<br />
native birds – most classified as<br />
threatened and facing increased<br />
pressures due to river system<br />
change.<br />
Wetlands are also ecosystems<br />
at-risk nationally and regionally,<br />
degraded by draining, damming<br />
and diversion affecting their<br />
ability to sequester carbon,<br />
cleanse freshwater and mitigate<br />
flooding, as well as impacting on<br />
biodiversity and mahinga kai.<br />
With biosecurity, we are<br />
putting greater emphasis on the<br />
risks of new pests establishing<br />
in Canterbury. Warming<br />
temperatures, changing soils and<br />
new land uses mean new weeds<br />
especially, will be able to gain a<br />
better foothold across the region.<br />
More broadly, we have to<br />
curb reliance on fossil fuels and<br />
find environmentally suitable<br />
alternatives, such as electricity and<br />
hydrogen, to power our public<br />
transport.<br />
When my predecessor Steve<br />
Lowndes retired as chair of<br />
this council late last year, he<br />
highlighted some of the big<br />
changes on the way. He was<br />
optimistic we would be able to<br />
deal with the “pressing issues” of<br />
climate change and sustainability.<br />
I share his confidence. As a<br />
community, and as a council,<br />
we are taking some bold steps to<br />
ensure we are in a better place to<br />
cope with the changing climate<br />
and the tests it will set us. But<br />
there will always be a need to do<br />
more.

Architectural excellence, fastidious craftsmanship<br />
and a world class location are the<br />
key elements that combine to set this<br />
award-winning home aside from the ordinary.<br />
Skilfully designed by an award winning<br />
Architect and expertly constructed by<br />
Registered Master Builder - Southen Builders.<br />
The brief of transforming a challenging site<br />
into a stylish, luxurious and relaxing home<br />
that effortlessly blends into its stunning<br />
environment was without doubt exceeded in<br />
all respects. Meters away from the waterfront<br />
and overlooking the pristine Akaroa <strong>Harbour</strong>,<br />
this truly is a breath-taking proposition that<br />
most certainly surpassed expectations upon<br />
completion and was fittingly recognised in<br />
two categories of the 2021 Registered Master<br />
Builders Awards.<br />
Perfect orientation ensures sun drenched<br />
and light filled living spaces indoors and<br />
out. Respite from the sun is offered by the<br />
trademark winged roof line. The high ceilings<br />
and multiple sets of tall sliding stacker<br />
doors, seemingly encase upstairs in glass<br />
and open to the large decking, transforming<br />
the open plan living into a space capable<br />
of entertaining large groups of friends or<br />
relaxing by the heated pool. At night the<br />
home is the epitome of ambience - enjoy<br />
lounging in front of the log burner while<br />
the dimmed LED strip lighting creates the<br />
perfect atmosphere.<br />
Wake to peaceful harbour views and<br />
birdsong in the upstairs main bedroom.<br />
Your luxury is further personified in the<br />
master ensuite with sleek, dark tiling floor<br />
to ceiling and an in-slab heated floor.<br />
Downstairs two further double bedrooms<br />
also take in harbour vistas and bask in sun,<br />
both of which are serviced by an additional<br />
downstairs bathroom.<br />
Internal access garaging provides secure<br />
storage plus off-street parking for at least<br />
three other vehicles. An outdoor shower is<br />
perfect for washing down after your swim<br />
in the bay.<br />
Modern conveniences synonymous with<br />
this quality of build include a sophisticated<br />
alarm system and numerous options controlled<br />
via your smart phone.<br />
To be sold with an extensive list of quality<br />
chattels including bedding and furniture,<br />

Plug-in hybrid a first for Lexus<br />
IT’S BECOMING a common<br />
conversation when I’m arranging a<br />
time to pick up a media evaluation<br />
car – I’m often told: “It’s on charge<br />
now and will be ready for you later<br />
in the day.’’<br />
On charge meaning it’s an<br />
electric vehicle or plug-in hybrid.<br />
That was the case when I was<br />
confirming the schedule for the<br />
Lexus NX 450h+ F-Sport, a fourcylinder<br />
petrol engine sport utility<br />
vehicle that has hybrid propulsion<br />
and plug-in charging capability.<br />
While hybrids are very familiar<br />
through a host of Lexus and Toyota<br />
products, the NX 450h+ is Lexus’<br />
first plug-in model and I can report<br />
it is a beauty, it carries all of the<br />
typical Lexus attributes along with<br />
the technology that keeps pace<br />
with all of the luxury brands. It<br />
must be said, too, that the driveline<br />
across the NX hybrid range is<br />
a development, it is the latest<br />
generation hybrid system and it is<br />
remarkably sophisticated.<br />
The NX series has entered a new<br />
generation, it’s just landed and it<br />
is bold yet beautiful in terms of<br />
design and style. There are three<br />
variants – a self-charging hybrid<br />
(NX 350h) and the NX 450h+. In<br />
both variants the petrol engine is<br />
aided by electric motors. The NX<br />
350h is front-wheel-drive, with one<br />
motor helping to drive the front<br />
wheels; the NX 350h Limited and<br />
the NX 450h+ are all-wheel drive,<br />
with two motors – one helping to<br />
drive the front wheels and a second<br />
driving the rear wheels.<br />
With the bigger battery, the NX<br />
450h+ has a longer electric-only<br />
drive range and more power than<br />
the self-charging hybrid. Lexus<br />
claims an 87km distance can be<br />
travelled on electric power only<br />
and, as with all of today’s electric<br />
models, charging can be made<br />
from a designated charge port<br />
using the type 2 cable, or from<br />
domestic supply using a three-pin<br />
outlet.<br />
The latter was what I used and it’s<br />
important to me that the cable has<br />
good length; I’m pleased to report<br />
at 8m it is a whopper, by far being<br />
the most generous I’ve experienced<br />
with any EV, it easily reached the<br />
plug in my garage.<br />
Sure, good time is needed to<br />
charge from domestic supply (five<br />
to nine hours), but if you get into<br />
the habit of plugging in, it’s quite<br />
easy to maintain the batteries to<br />
the top end. If you are in a rush,<br />
Lexus claim 80 per cent of capacity<br />
can be reached in 30min from the<br />
nationwide charging stations.<br />
On the subject of figures, Lexus<br />
lists the NX 450h+ with 136kW<br />
and 227Nm from the petrol<br />
engine. Add in 134kW/270Nm<br />
from the front electric motor and<br />
40kW/<strong>12</strong>1Nm from the rear and<br />
TECHNOLOGY: The NX 450h+ will charge from low<br />
capacity to 80 per cent in around 30min at a designated<br />
charge port.<br />
LEXUS NX 450h+ F-SPORT: New generation model has bold design and styling cues.<br />
you have startling performance on<br />
offer.<br />
With such high outputs there<br />
is no shortage of what is needed<br />
to accelerate and make pace with<br />
traffic. The NX 450h+ is quick<br />
with a standstill to 100kmh time of<br />
6.3sec and 4.7sec to make <strong>12</strong>0km/h<br />
from 80km/h, the highway<br />
overtake very spirited and relaxing<br />
as a driver.<br />
More importantly are the figures<br />
of battery capacity, the NX 450h+<br />
has the highest output Lexus/<br />
Toyota offer at 18.1kWh.<br />
Of course, when battery capacity<br />
is depleted, the driveline returns<br />
to normal petrol only mode, and<br />
it’s also in that mode where engine<br />
development really makes a point,<br />
fuel thrift is engineered into the<br />
manufacturing process, the 2487cc<br />
unit is rated with a 5.5-litre per<br />
100km combined cycle average. At<br />
best possible usage there’s also the<br />
1.4l/100km figure that comes with<br />
full hybrid mode.<br />
Not only is the NX 450h+ a<br />
masterpiece in terms of efficiency,<br />
it is the epitome of quality and<br />
luxury that you can always expect<br />
from the company, it is sublime<br />
in its sophistication, and that<br />
should be a given after paying over<br />
$100k.<br />
To be precise, the NX 450h+<br />
sits at $107,990, the NX 350h<br />
and NX 350h Ltd list at $92,700<br />
and $101,900 respectively.<br />
• Price – Lexus NX 450h+,<br />
$107,900<br />
• Dimensions – Length,<br />
4660mm; width,<br />
1865mm; height,<br />
1670mm<br />
• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />
four-wheeldrive,<br />
2487cc, 136kW,<br />
227Nm, continuously<br />
variable automatic<br />
• Performance –<br />
0-100km/h, 6.3sec<br />
• Fuel usage – 1.4l/100km<br />
Unfortunately, they are well over<br />
the $80k threshold that would<br />
net you a Government Clean Car<br />
Programme rebate.<br />
Column space won’t allow for<br />
comprehensive detailing but I can<br />
report that everything that can<br />
be built into the car is there for<br />
comfort, convenience and safety.<br />
In true Lexus fashion the entire<br />
NX series is plush, and given it is<br />
a mid-to-full size SUV there is no<br />
shortage of space so the feeling of<br />
comfort is well emphasised.<br />
On the road the NX 450h+<br />
cruises sedately, it covers ground<br />
quickly and quietly, it is the<br />
quintessential SUV in terms of<br />
how it travels, but it has hidden<br />
depth in terms of handling. Even<br />
though it is tall at over 1.6m, there<br />
is little gravitational force over the<br />
suspension, the spring and damper<br />
rates have quality settings that<br />
are biased towards comfort, but<br />
somehow the balance in a corner is<br />
perfect, while the suspension deals<br />
to road ripples without an in-cabin<br />
effect.<br />
Even though four-wheel-drive<br />
is constant, the NX 450h+ isn’t a<br />
cross-country charger, but with<br />
188mm of ground clearance it<br />
has a system that will allow you<br />
to explore tracks that don’t have<br />
severe undulations.<br />
Although, to do that you<br />
may need to get your order<br />
in quick-smart because like<br />
most of today’s new models<br />
the NX 450h+ is chock-full of<br />
electronic components and that<br />
makes it difficult to source the<br />
semi-conductors in this age of<br />
supply shortages, resulting in<br />
manufacturing delays. There’s no<br />
doubt there will be a lengthy wait<br />
for a new NX but it will be well<br />
worth it.<br />
I adore the NX 450h+, it reeks of<br />
refinement and the interior layout<br />
is exquisite in terms of materials,<br />
level of specification and attention<br />
to detail, which all adds up to<br />
high comfort levels, and that is<br />
something that Lexus has focussed<br />
on ever since it landed in our<br />
market in 1989.<br />
I’m due to drive the NX 350<br />
Limited soon, I simply can’t wait.<br />

Enjoy uninterrupted beach views and a relaxed resort-inspired lifestyle from the privacy and secure comfort of this<br />
architecturally crafted beachfront residence.<br />
Built with a focus on capturing an abundance of natural light, the contemporary HOME has a bright and breezy feel. This<br />
bespoke residence captures the natural romance of its waterfront setting, rich textures of timber, a warm colour palette,<br />
and floor-to-ceiling glass combine to create a warm and inviting ambience to come HOME to.<br />
On the lower level, you’ll find three, light-filled bedrooms serviced by Kwila wood floors, a lounge area, shared bathroom,<br />
and kitchenette creating convenient guest quarters or a lucrative Airbnb opportunity.<br />
Built with entertaining in mind, Jarrah-wood stairs lead the way to the second floor, where a dream kitchen takes its place<br />
in the heart of the HOME, offering top-of-the-line appliances, a floating benchtop, and in-house bar amenities. The kitchen<br />
expands into an open-plan dining zone and balcony. Enjoy alfresco hosting at its finest as you watch the sunset over native<br />
oceanfront bushland which leads the way down to the waves. Located on a prime 822 m2 block, this waterfront HOME<br />
presents multiple opportunities for alfresco entertaining all year round with a stylish poolside courtyard and outdoor BBQ<br />
area.<br />
While a functional layout allows for a sizable family to spread out, on the third floor, the master offers total privacy, its<br />
stunning water views, his and her walk-in robe, and a luxurious ensuite.<br />
There is two-car garaging with parking for additional cars or a boat. Plus a consented<br />
sleepout, currently used for storage.<br />
This one-of-a-kind family HOME has all you need to relax, play, and entertain while relishing an abundance of privacy and<br />
ample space to bring all your dreams to life.<br />
