Marathon 40-hour broadcast<br />

live from Middleton Grange<br />

MIDDLETON Grange School<br />

radio DJs are gearing up for<br />

a 40-hour broadcast like no other.<br />

From 8pm tomorrow until<br />

11am on Sunday students at the<br />

school, including (above) David<br />

Irvine, Jess Hansen and Melanie<br />

Black, will be stepping up to the<br />

mic for a marathon broadcast<br />

as part of the World Vision 40<br />

Hour Challenge.<br />

The challenge is New<br />

Zealand’s biggest youth<br />

fundraising event.<br />

This year the focus is<br />

on bringing life-changing<br />

clean water to children who<br />

desperately need it, such as<br />

those in Malawi where, every<br />

day, 11 kids under five die from<br />

diseases related to dirty water.<br />

Anyone in the city can tune<br />

into “The Fridge FM” broadcast<br />

from Middleton Grange on<br />

TRACY<br />

SUMMERFIELD<br />

FOR WIGRAM<br />

88.3FM. School spokesperson<br />

Ailah Taring said during the<br />

40-hour broadcast, there will<br />

be interviews with artists who<br />

are donating to the art auction<br />

the school is organising, chats<br />

with church representatives and<br />

other special guests.<br />

All funds raised will go to<br />

World Vision.<br />

Its international partnerships<br />

director TJ Grant said<br />

Middleton Grange has a long<br />

history of supporting World<br />

Vision.<br />

“We are so grateful to have<br />

Middleton Grange School<br />

students on board again this<br />

year, their creativity and<br />

drive to raise funds for World<br />

Vision over the years has been<br />

incredible,” said Grant.<br />

Big drop<br />

in graffiti<br />

across<br />

the city<br />

THE AMOUNT of graffiti being<br />

removed from structures across<br />

the city has dropped significantly.<br />

From March to May, city<br />

council contractors removed<br />

<strong>15</strong>,000m 2 of graffiti, compared to<br />

the same period last year when<br />

21,000m 2 had to be cleaned off.<br />

City council graffiti team<br />

leader Kerryn Findlater said the<br />

reduction may<br />

be due to several<br />

factors, including<br />

a collaborative<br />

approach to<br />

preventing graffiti,<br />

the increasing<br />

presence of street<br />

art in the city and<br />

a new volunteering<br />

programme.<br />

“We have introduced the idea of<br />

micro-volunteering, which gives<br />

those who are reporting a chance<br />

to be rewarded each month.<br />

“It was developed after we<br />

noticed that more than 60 per<br />

cent of all graffiti reports came in<br />

via our existing network of <strong>15</strong>0<br />

volunteers; we wanted to increase<br />

that activity and involve more of<br />

our citizens.”<br />

Findlater said by joining the<br />

friend of the graffiti programme,<br />

people become “micro-volunteers”<br />

and can get monthly insights and<br />

previews of new street art and go<br />

into a draw to win a supermarket<br />

voucher.<br />

Young actors gear up<br />

to shine in Oliver!<br />

RICCARTON HIGH School will<br />

be drawing back the curtains on<br />

its theatre production of Oliver!<br />

next Wednesday.<br />

The school has working on the<br />

production since late last year.<br />

Show director Charlie Grubb<br />

said more than 100 people are<br />

involved, with rehearsals running<br />

up to five times a week.<br />

He described Oliver! as “a<br />

classical musical, ultimately about<br />

kindness”.<br />

Oliver! follows the journey<br />

of Oliver Twist, an orphaned<br />

boy in 19th-century London,<br />

as he navigates a world of<br />

pickpockets, thieves, and<br />

unexpected friendships,<br />

ultimately discovering the power<br />

of resilience, love, and hope in the<br />

face of adversity.<br />

The lead role of Oliver is played<br />

by Year 9 student Albie Moore,<br />

with the supporting roles of<br />

Nancy played by Manisha Munro,<br />

Fagin by Ted Eason, and Bill Sikes<br />

by Jay Poole.<br />

• Oliver! will be performed<br />

in the Riccarton High<br />

School hall on <strong>June</strong> 21-14<br />

at 7pm, with a matinee on<br />

<strong>June</strong> 24 at 2pm. Tickets<br />

can be purchased at www.<br />

riccarton.school.nz or from<br />

the school office<br />

Script, film<br />

and edit – all<br />

in 40 hours<br />

STUDENTS FROM Riccarton<br />

High School will take part in a<br />

40-hour filmmaking competition<br />

on the weekend, to raise funds<br />

for the World Vision 40 Hour<br />

Challenge.<br />

Around 16 teams of four-tofive<br />

students will script, film<br />

and edit films, which they will<br />

challenge themselves to complete<br />

during the 40-hour period.<br />

The challenge will kick off at<br />

8pm tomorrow and run until<br />

noon on Sunday.<br />

The students have been<br />

inspired by ‘48Hours’, New<br />

Zealand’s largest filmmaking<br />

competition.<br />

The World Vision 40 Hour<br />

Challenge is New Zealand’s<br />

biggest youth fundraising event.<br />

This year its focus is bringing<br />

life-changing clean water to<br />

children in Malawi, where every<br />

day, 11 children under the age of<br />

five die from diseases related to<br />

dirty water.<br />

“We are wholeheartedly<br />

committed to supporting<br />

the World Vision 40 Hour<br />

Challenge as it enables students<br />

to require new media skills while<br />

simultaneously lending their<br />

support to important global<br />

causes,” said Riccarton High<br />

School’s media and advertising<br />

spokesperson Lana Chapman.<br />

“We’re hoping for New Zealand<br />

teenage students to learn some<br />

new media skills, and how to<br />

problem-solve any issues that<br />

they come across while filming,<br />

as good problem-solving skills are<br />

extremely important,” she said.<br />

“This going to be an awesome<br />

experience, especially for aspiring<br />

film-makers. Time management<br />

is going to be key.”<br />

Globally, millions of children<br />

are affected because they don’t<br />

have safe water to drink. One-infive<br />

children worldwide do not<br />

have enough clean water to get<br />

through the day and many have<br />

no option but to walk for hours<br />

each day to find clean water<br />

sources.<br />

World Vision’s goal is to<br />

bring clean water to everyone,<br />

everywhere it works – in more<br />

than 100 countries around the<br />

world – by 2030.<br />

Model yacht club sail-ebration<br />

One of world’s oldest<br />

model yacht clubs<br />

celebrates its 125th<br />

anniversary this<br />

weekend. Nick Tolerton<br />

reports<br />

THE CHRISTCHURCH Model<br />

Yacht Club, part of the Hagley<br />

Park scene for 125 years, has<br />

battled plenty of obstacles to stay<br />

afloat.<br />

Issues with water weed,<br />

competition from Canada geese,<br />

and especially the February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake, which drained<br />

Lake Victoria like bathwater<br />

going down a plughole, are<br />

among the difficulties the club<br />

has overcome.<br />

However, at 125 the club will<br />

have much to celebrate at its<br />

jubilee on Saturday. With nearly<br />

100 sailors, the membership<br />

is the highest it has ever been<br />

since a group of enthusiasts<br />

established the club during a<br />

meeting at Warner’s Hotel on<br />

<strong>June</strong> 17, 1898.<br />

It is the second oldest model<br />

yacht club in the world, after<br />

a London club in Kensington<br />

Gardens, founded in 1876.<br />

It’s a small miracle, though,<br />

that the Christchurch club<br />

got on its feet again after the<br />

earthquake. The big shake<br />

ruptured an unknown tile<br />

drain under the lake bed, the<br />

CHAMPION: Graham Parratt, a former national trailer yacht<br />

champion, has been the skipper to beat at Lake Victoria<br />

for several years.<br />

water disappeared, and the lake<br />

became a wilderness of mud,<br />

puddles, weed, and rubbish.<br />

Mayor Phil Mauger gets the<br />

credit for putting it on its feet<br />

again – and can probably be sure<br />

of votes from club members. The<br />

contracting firm he had at the<br />

time was engaged to re-establish<br />

the lake, which had to be reexcavated,<br />

lined with bentonite<br />

clay half a metre thick, topped<br />

with a coating of ground glass,<br />

and to repair the wells which<br />

supplied its water.<br />

Before the quake, the club’s<br />

big issue for many decades had<br />

been weed, which sometimes<br />

grew so thickly it made the lake<br />

unusable.<br />

The weed returned after the<br />

quake, along with some algae<br />

in mid-summer, but in about<br />

20<strong>15</strong> the lake stabilised and it no<br />

longer even requires spraying for<br />

weed.<br />

As for the Canada geese<br />

(and ducks and ducklings), the<br />

yachties have to compromise and<br />

share the lake. A flock of geese<br />

taking off when winds are light<br />

literally takes the wind out of<br />

their sails.<br />

The biggest change in the<br />

club’s history came in the 1960s<br />

with the introduction of radiocontrolled<br />

yachts, allowing the<br />

operator to steer the yacht and<br />

adjust the mainsail and jib,<br />

which are on the same winch.<br />

Previously skippers used vane<br />

steering, which meant frantic<br />

sprints around the lake to reset<br />

the sails and vane when the yacht<br />

reached the opposite shore.<br />

Many of the club’s members<br />

have been among Canterbury’s<br />

top yachties in a variety of<br />

‘proper’ sailing classes.<br />

The late Graham Mander, a<br />

Canterbury sailing great and<br />

winner of more than a dozen<br />

New Zealand titles in classes<br />

including the P class, R class, X<br />

class, and trailer yachts, adapted<br />

with ease to the challenge of the<br />

radio-controlled boats and was<br />

the top competitor for many<br />

years.<br />

• The Christchurch Model<br />

Yacht Club anniversary<br />

celebration will be<br />

at Lake Victoria on<br />

Saturday, 10am to 4pm<br />

A WEEK OF<br />

SUCCESS &<br />

GRADUATIONS<br />

SUCCESS: Some of the J class skippers line up. The class was developed<br />

at the Christchurch club and is now raced around the world.<br />

‘Unique sports<br />

institution in the<br />

heart of the city’<br />

Steve and I recently had a week jammed<br />

packed of proud parent moments. Two<br />

sons graduation within days of each<br />

other, one in Palmerston North and one<br />

in Houston. Many air miles racked up in<br />

five days. You can’t imagine when your<br />

boys are at school that someday they<br />

step off the podium holding a cherished<br />

degree, a decorated piece of paper, that<br />

has taken years of grind, passion and self<br />

motivation to achieve. Makes you feel<br />

super proud for sure, but also reminded<br />

me that they are adult men, ready to set<br />

out and conquer the world with passion,<br />

integrity, hope and kindness.<br />

Our two sons played tennis, nationally<br />

and internationally all through school,<br />

starting at age five. They both won many<br />

age group National competitions and<br />

both represented NZL in Junior Davis<br />

Cup. Early on, Steve and I knew they<br />

would start their university education<br />

in the United States (despite living<br />

across from Canterbury University),<br />

gaining a tennis scholarship to a school<br />

of their choice. Connor started at<br />

the University of California Berkeley,<br />

doing an undergraduate degree in<br />

Sciences. Dylan went to the University of<br />

Minnesota in Minneapolis and pursued<br />

an undergraduate degree in finance and<br />

supply chain management. Both sons<br />

finished their degrees in different places.<br />

Connor graduated first with a Batchelor<br />

of Veterinarian Science from Massey<br />

University. We couldn’t be prouder<br />

or happier than a son has chosen a<br />

career that has given Steve and I so<br />

much purpose, enjoyment and exciting<br />

Connor graduating in Veterinary Science.<br />

Dylan graduating from Rice in Houston<br />

challenges. Connor has chosen the<br />

path of Internship, gaining a sought<br />

after place at VSA Surgical Specialists<br />

in Auckland, as his first job. This is a<br />

perfect fit for Connor who has a thirst for<br />

learning and knowledge and may want<br />

to pursue the surgical specialist route.<br />

Eventually oneway his home will be<br />

McMaster & Heap though.<br />

Dylan graduated with a Batchelor of<br />

Arts, majoring in Economics, from<br />

Rice University in Houston. Another<br />

choked up moment when “ Dylan<br />

Oliver McMaster Heap “ was called out<br />

amongst the 800 students graduating.<br />

Rice is a top <strong>15</strong> American College,<br />

so gaining a degree from Rice and<br />

playing on the tennis team is a huge<br />

achievement, requiring perseverance,<br />

full commitment and great work ethic.<br />

Dylan is now moving to Elon University<br />

in North Carolina to do a Masters in<br />

Business Analytics and finish his final<br />

year playing tennis. The world awaits<br />

Dylan.<br />

Not my usual patient case study article<br />

but I wanted to share a little of my<br />

family. I have been writing articles for 24<br />

years now. When we bought McMaster<br />

& Heap Vets in 1999, Connor was two<br />

years old, Dylan and Isaac not born yet.<br />

Our boys have grown up with parents<br />

devoted to helping people and their<br />

pets and the business is a part of who<br />

they all are. They are all very proud of<br />

the work Steve and I do - you never<br />

know, they all may play a part in the<br />

MMH family business oneway.<br />

Graham Luxon, the<br />

father of National Party<br />

leader Chris Luxon, wellknown<br />

photographer<br />

Euan Sarginson, and<br />

Steve Mander, son of<br />

Olympic sailing champion<br />

Peter Mander, are also<br />

members.<br />

While the club has<br />

many ancient mariners,<br />

women have also made<br />

an impact. Sue Bowie was<br />

the first female member<br />

as a 13-year-old in the<br />

1970s and finished third<br />

in a national junior<br />

championship. Thysje<br />

Arthur has had a long<br />

involvement, and the<br />

question of who cooked<br />

dinner that night was<br />

resolved on race days<br />

when she and husband<br />

Tom crossed tacks.<br />

•From page 1<br />

“We not only want to<br />

encourage people to help<br />

keep our city graffiti-free,<br />

but we also want to thank<br />

them. Without people<br />

taking notice and taking<br />

action we<br />

would not be able to be<br />

as effective or as efficient.<br />

It truly is a team effort,”<br />

Findlater said.<br />

The graffiti team has<br />

also completed recent<br />

beautification projects<br />

as part of its ‘What’s<br />

Cool About Your School’<br />

initiative.<br />

Findlater said the<br />

project offers the chance<br />

for schools to ‘adopt’ a<br />

cabinet and showcase<br />

their schools with a mural<br />

on it to increase pride<br />

and ownership in their<br />

Anzan Zhang, who<br />

raced big boats in China,<br />

spotted the model yachts<br />

while walking in Hagley<br />

Park, was offered the<br />

chance to sail one, and is<br />

now a keen member.<br />

A wide variety of classes<br />

have been sailed at the<br />

club, but there is special<br />

affection for the J class,<br />

which is now raced in<br />

other centres and even<br />

at some overseas clubs.<br />

Designed by Dave Heanly<br />

based on the lines of the<br />

famous America’s Cup<br />

yacht, Ranger, it has a long<br />

sweeping keel that enables<br />

it to glide through the<br />

weed which fouled yachts<br />

with deeper keels. Very<br />

handily, it also fits fully<br />

rigged in the back of a car.<br />

So far, at least, 365 J<br />

class have been built,<br />

community.<br />

They have also begun<br />

working with Restorative<br />

Justice Services on some<br />

community art and<br />

mentoring projects.<br />

“We have already had a<br />

couple of inquiries from<br />

parents who want their<br />

young people to have other<br />

fibreglass hulls from the<br />

same mould, and one<br />

club member, Graeme<br />

Raxworthy, has built or<br />

restored more than 40 J<br />

class.<br />

At one time in the<br />

1960s, participant<br />

numbers at the club<br />

dropped to only six or<br />

seven boats, and the club<br />

looked set to go the same<br />

way as penny farthing<br />

cycle racing which used<br />

to be held around Lake<br />

Victoria when it was just a<br />

swamp.<br />

How things have<br />

changed – now the<br />

club, which runs races<br />

on Wednesdays and<br />

Saturdays, looks set to<br />

flourish for many years<br />

yet – a unique sports<br />

institution in the heart of<br />

the city.<br />

Going graffiti free<br />

a team effort<br />

avenues to explore other<br />

than tagging.<br />

“We are always open to<br />

new ideas so if you want to<br />

have chat about creating a<br />

mural, removing graffiti,<br />

project ideas or to attend<br />

an event, please contact<br />

the team. Together, we can<br />

make a difference.”

Great baking delights without gluten<br />

A need<br />

to make<br />

sure her<br />

daughter,<br />

diagnosed<br />

with<br />

coeliac<br />

disease,<br />

did not miss out on the<br />

joys of eating led Cherie<br />

Lyden to delve into the<br />

world of gluten-free<br />

cooking and baking.<br />

When she began to investigate<br />

what gluten-free baking was<br />

available, Lyden was shocked to<br />

find gluten-free products were<br />

hard to find and lacking in taste.<br />

Gluten-free recipes were also hitand-miss.<br />

“So I experimented, tested and<br />

trialled various options until I<br />

had developed food that I was<br />

happy with and proud to have<br />

cooked.”<br />

This led to the opening of the<br />

Wholegreen Bakery in Sydney,<br />

and spreading the word around<br />

the gluten-free community.<br />

In her book, Lyden includes a<br />

chapter on her kitchen essentials<br />

and the flour blends she uses to<br />

bake and cook with. She makes<br />

up her own mix of brown rice<br />

flour, potato starch, cornflour<br />

and xanthan gum, which she<br />

finds to be more consistent for<br />

baking than shop-bought blends.<br />

“I like to use brown rice flour<br />

here as it’s more wholesome and<br />

results in moister baked products<br />

than white rice flour.”<br />

The book is divided into sweet,<br />

savoury and bread chapters.<br />

Lemon and coconut cake<br />

Serves 8<br />

Ingredients<br />

⅔ cup (80g) coconut flour<br />

1 cup (100g) almond meal<br />

1 tsp baking powder<br />

1 tsp ground cinnamon<br />

6 eggs, at room temperature<br />

1⅓ cups (295g) caster<br />

(superfine) sugar<br />

1⅓ cups (330ml) sunflower oil<br />

1 tsp vanilla paste<br />

Zest and juice of 2 lemons,<br />

plus juice of 1 extra lemon for<br />

brushing<br />

Toasted coconut flakes<br />

Lemon glaze:<br />

2 cups (250g) gluten-free icing<br />

(confectioners’) sugar, sifted<br />

¼ cup (60ml) lemon juice<br />

Finely grated zest of 1 lemon,<br />

plus extra strands of zest to<br />

decorate<br />

Directions<br />

Preheat the oven to 170 de gC<br />

(<strong>15</strong>0 deg C fan-forced) with the<br />

oven rack positioned in the middle<br />

of the oven.<br />

Grease a 20cm round springform<br />

cake tin and line the base<br />

and sides with baking paper.<br />

Sift the coconut flour, almond<br />

meal, baking powder and cinnamon<br />

into a bowl and whisk<br />

together thoroughly.<br />

Using a stand mixer with the<br />

whisk attachment, or in a large<br />

bowl with a hand mixer, whisk<br />

the eggs and sugar together on<br />

high speed until pale and fluffy.<br />

Slowly add the oil and vanilla<br />

and continue to whisk for 30<br />

seconds more.<br />

Using the paddle attachment<br />

on low speed, add the sifted dry<br />

ingredients and fold in until<br />

everything is mixed together<br />

thoroughly, then add the zest<br />

and juice of two lemons and mix<br />

well.<br />

Pour the batter into the prepared<br />

tin and smooth the top<br />

with the back of a spoon.<br />

Bake for 1 hour <strong>15</strong> minutes, rotating<br />

roughly halfway through<br />

for even cooking, until the cake<br />

is dark golden, a skewer inserted<br />

into the centre of the loaf comes<br />

out clean, or the cake springs<br />

back when you press down gently<br />

on the top with two fingers.<br />

Remove the cake from the<br />

oven and brush the top with<br />

lemon juice. Leave to cool completely<br />

in the tin before releasing<br />

the spring, removing the sides<br />

and peeling away any baking<br />

paper as necessary. Remove the<br />

cake tin base by sliding the cake<br />

on to a serving plate.<br />

Make the lemon glaze by mixing<br />

the icing sugar, lemon juice<br />

and lemon zest together in a<br />

bowl until smooth.<br />

Pour the icing over the top of<br />

the cake then use a flat-bladed<br />

spatula to quickly smooth the<br />

glaze out so it gently tips over the<br />

sides to create a drip effect.<br />

Decorate with toasted coconut<br />

flakes and a little lemon zest. If<br />

you want the icing to set (which<br />

makes it easier to slice), place the<br />

cake in the fridge for 10 minutes<br />

before slicing.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Ground moisture barrier<br />

under low sub-floor<br />

Now with the colder and wetter weather on<br />

its way, home owners are focusing on ways<br />

to make their homes comfortable, warm<br />

and healthy for their families throughout<br />

winter. Rising damp is an issue that affects<br />

many of our older properties which suffer<br />

from poor, or no, ground moisture barrier.<br />

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many<br />

people have relocated to homes that suffer<br />

from rising damp which can be associated<br />

with health problems. Independent tests have<br />

damp soil and had this to to say: Condensation<br />

shown that up to 40 litres of water can rise<br />

on the underside of a timber floor can occur<br />

from the ground and enter a house every day,<br />

where the floor is is suspended over damp<br />

leading to mildew, mould, condensation and<br />

ground and the inside air temperature falls<br />

Mercedes EQE breathtakingly quick<br />

• By Bob Nettleton<br />

IN THE last three years<br />

Mercedes Benz has amped up its<br />

quest to become a luxury electric<br />

vehicle game changer, with its<br />

efforts being spearheaded by the<br />

EQ range.<br />

Among them is the futuristically<br />

styled and breathtakingly<br />

quick EQE AMG, one of the<br />

hottest-ever Mercedes Benz sedans<br />

priced at a cool $220,000.<br />

Just months after the launch of<br />

the large luxury EQS, the EQE is<br />

the next model series to be based<br />

on architecture Mercedes Benz<br />

developed specifically for its<br />

electric models.<br />

Riding on a slightly shorter<br />

wheelbase than the EQS, with<br />

shorter overhangs and more<br />

recessed flanks, the EQE remains<br />

a substantial high-end luxury<br />

sedan. Interior space exceeds<br />

the comparable ICE (Internal<br />

Combustion Engine) Mercedes-<br />

Benz E-Class, including interior<br />

length (+ 80mm) and front<br />

shoulder room (+ 27mm). The<br />

EQE comfortably accommodates<br />

up to five people even on longer<br />

journeys.<br />

It brings sharp styling and attitude,<br />

along with a level of standard<br />

equipment and refinement to<br />

what is regarded as an all-electric<br />

alternative to the legendary<br />

Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan.<br />

A three-model range is offered<br />

here and put its best foot<br />

forward with the entry level<br />

and attractively priced $132,100<br />

EQE. After more power and<br />

technology? That is offered in<br />

abundance in the $145,000n 350<br />

version featuring Mercedes Benz<br />

4MATIC AWD system. Then<br />

there’s the X-factor $200k plus<br />

AMG 53 4MATIC. All EQE’s are<br />

covered by a five-year unlimited<br />

kilometre warranty and 10 years<br />

or up to 250,000km, whatever<br />

comes first.<br />

The EQE 53 4MATIC+ dual<br />

electric motors generate an epic<br />

460 kW of power and a staggering<br />

950 Nm of torque. Their<br />

combined might hurtles the car<br />

0 to 100 km/h in a mind bending<br />

3.5 seconds – all with a handy<br />

maximum real world all-electric<br />

driving range of 500km. This is<br />

around 90km less electric range<br />

than the other two versions.<br />

The fit and finish of the generously<br />

proportioned passenger<br />

compartment is outstanding,<br />

along with a driving position<br />

that’s close to perfection. Both<br />

front seats are heated and electrically<br />

adjustable, while a panoramic<br />

sliding sunroof lighten<br />

ups your world and senses at the<br />

touch of a button.<br />

On board is the latest generation<br />

of the MBUX multimedia<br />

system, including MBUX<br />

Navigation. A large centrally<br />

mounted LED screen includes a<br />

fingerprint scanner to activate<br />

driver profiles. It’s hard not to<br />

be impressed by the quality<br />

surround sound system, smartphone<br />

integration for Apple and<br />

Android devices.<br />

A smart Driving Assistance<br />

Package includes Active Distance<br />

Assist, Active Brake Assist<br />

with cross-traffic function, Active<br />

Lane Change Assist, Active<br />

Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane,<br />

all making for one highly active<br />

vehicle.<br />

AIRMATIC air suspension<br />

enhanced the test vehicles ride<br />

and all round poise. Rear-axle<br />

steering shortens the turning circle<br />

during cornering and parking,<br />

and delivers better steering<br />

response. Comfort for a serious<br />

high performance sedan is excellent,<br />

and free of the sometimes<br />

abrasive low-speed ride associated<br />

with this type of model.<br />

Handling is right out of the<br />

top draw thanks to a superbly<br />

designed, engineered and tuned<br />

suspension providing prodigious<br />

levels of grip. In fact I felt at<br />

times the test vehicle was ‘super<br />

glued’ to the road surface. With<br />

the lithium-ion battery forming<br />

part of the vehicles floor you<br />

have the ideal low centre of gravity.<br />

This further improves what’s<br />

an already incredibly well balanced<br />

and agile full size luxury<br />

sedan.<br />
