SUMNER’S SENIOR prizegiving<br />

belonged to the Wave,<br />

with the club’s premier side<br />

taking out the big awards<br />

at Friday night’s end of<br />

season event.<br />

First-year coach Gareth<br />

D’almeida took home the Lloyd<br />

Douglas Trophy for senior<br />

coach of the year for his efforts<br />

leading the Wave.<br />

D’almedia had previously<br />

tasted success with Sumner’s<br />

colts side in 2020 and 2021, and<br />

guided the Wave to playoffs<br />

for just the second time in the<br />

team’s history.<br />

As a result, the Wave also<br />

took out the Shagged Rock<br />

Trophy for senior team of the<br />

year.<br />

The team finished the season<br />

with nine wins and five losses –<br />

a massive improvement on last<br />

year’s three wins.<br />

Lyttelton<br />

gets new<br />

bus route<br />

to airport<br />

A NEW bus route to Lyttelton<br />

will begin operating from<br />

Monday.<br />

Route 8 – Port to Port/Airport<br />

to Lyttelton will replace the<br />

Casebrook to Lyttelton (Route 28).<br />

It is one of two news routes<br />

announced by Environment<br />

Canterbury last week. The<br />

second, Route 27 – Northwood<br />

to Huntsbury, will replace the<br />

existing Bryndwr to Huntsbury<br />

service (Route 17).<br />

“We are excited to be launching<br />

these two new enhanced Metro<br />

services,” said ECan public<br />

transport general manager<br />

Stewart Gibbon.<br />

“We have engaged with the<br />

community about these new<br />

services, and there is strong buyin.”<br />

The route changes were<br />

approved in May last year<br />

following consultation with<br />

the public, including regular<br />

passengers of the existing routes.<br />

Route 8 – Port to Port will<br />

connect Christchurch Airport<br />

with the central city and<br />

Lyttelton. On weekdays, the<br />

service runs every 15 minutes.<br />

Hammond painting breaks $1m mark<br />

Late artist<br />

now ‘all<br />

time great’<br />

• By Rachel Maher<br />

AN ARTWORK by late<br />

Lyttelton artist Bill Hammond<br />

was sold with a huge milliondollar<br />

price tag on Monday.<br />

Melting<br />

Moments 1 sold<br />

for $1.715 million<br />

at a Webb’s<br />

auction event – a<br />

new record for<br />

Hammond.<br />

It was sold to<br />

an online bidder<br />

after the auction<br />

was over.<br />

Bill<br />

Hammond<br />

The painting, an acrylic on<br />

canvas work measuring roughly<br />

1.6 x 2.1 metres, was expected to<br />

fetch around $1.5-$2 million.<br />

The most expensive piece of art<br />

to be sold in New Zealand was ‘Is<br />

there anything of which one can<br />

say look this is new?’ by Colin<br />

McCahon, which sold for $2.45<br />

million at auction in September<br />

2022.<br />

Another Colin McCahon piece<br />

POPULOUS: Melting Moments 1 by the late Bill Hammond sold for $1.715 million at an<br />

auction on Monday.<br />

sold at Monday’s auction for<br />

$173,000.<br />

Even though the painting did<br />

not break the record, Charles<br />

Ninow, the director of art at<br />

Webb’s auction house, said it is<br />

“incredibly rare” for a painting<br />

to be sold for that price in the<br />

New Zealand market.<br />

“Very, very, very few paintings<br />

have sold to those sorts of<br />

figures,” Ninow said.<br />

“This is the first painting by<br />

Hammond that’s achieved more<br />

than a million dollars and it<br />

cements him as one of the alltime<br />

greats.<br />

“Melting Moments I is<br />

a museum-level work of<br />

national significance. Its detail,<br />

storytelling and sheer presence<br />

are representative of one of our<br />

most important artists at the<br />

height of his artistic powers.”<br />

On Webb’s auction house<br />

website, it explained Melting<br />

Moments 1 was painted by<br />

Hammond a decade after his<br />

1989 trip to the Auckland<br />

Islands.<br />

“Melting Moments 1,<br />

Hammond presents us<br />

with a busy, populous, noisy<br />

habitat, in which the cacophony<br />

of birdsong is drowned out by<br />

clanging bells and aeroplanes,”<br />

the website states.<br />

“The composition is inhabited<br />

by Hammond’s now iconic<br />

mythical creatures — half<br />

human, half bird, which first<br />

appeared in his paintings in<br />

1993.”<br />

Other highlights of the auction<br />

included Brent Wong’s The<br />

Bequest, selling for $173,000,<br />

$<strong>30</strong>,000 above the estimated<br />

price.<br />

Hammond was born in 1947<br />

and attended Canterbury’s<br />

University’s Ilam School of Fine<br />

Arts in the middle of the 1960s.<br />

Towards the end of the<br />

decade he graduated and<br />

started making and selling<br />

wooden toys while living in<br />

Lyttelton.<br />

Although he didn’t start<br />

exhibiting his artwork until<br />

the 1976, he quickly rose<br />

to prominence, eventually<br />

becoming one of New Zealand’s<br />

most celebrated painters during<br />

his lifetime and one of the few<br />

to win acclaim outside of our<br />

borders.<br />

His star has continued to<br />

climb since his death in January<br />

2021, firmly establishing him as<br />

one of our genuine “blue chip”<br />

artists.<br />

Cathedral’s youngest ever dean<br />

is ‘delighted and humbled’<br />

CHRIST CHURCH Cathedral<br />

has appointed its youngest-ever<br />

dean - 37-year-old Reverend<br />

Canon Ben Truman.<br />

Truman is set to leave his<br />

current role as the Vicar of<br />

Opawa-St Martins (St Mark’s,<br />

Opawa) to take up the job.<br />

Bishop Peter Carrell said<br />

Truman’s appointment ushers<br />

in a “new era of leadership, fresh<br />

perspectives, and a<br />

commitment to fostering a<br />

strong sense of family and<br />

community within the heart of<br />

Christchurch”.<br />

The dean is responsible for<br />

the worship and ministry at<br />

the Cathedral and leadership<br />

of its mission to the city of<br />

Christchurch, which is currently<br />

undertaken at the Transitional<br />

Cathedral.<br />

Said Carrell: “Ben brings<br />

to the role huge intelligence,<br />

a warm and approachable<br />

manner, and theological and<br />

pastoral insight into the ways of<br />

God in relation to humanity.<br />

“He’s already a proven leader<br />

in our diocese and for seven<br />

years has been a Canon of the<br />

Christ Church<br />

SMILES: Reverend Canon Ben Truman with wife, Johannah, and children - Thomas, Toby and Edward.<br />

Cathedral Chapter, the<br />

governing body of the<br />

cathedral.<br />

“The cathedral is focused on<br />

being available for all kinds<br />

of special and civic occasions,<br />

alongside diocesan events. Ben<br />

is very familiar with the values<br />

and aspirations of our cathedral<br />

community.<br />

“He also understands the<br />

importance of nurturing both<br />

the spiritual and familial bonds<br />

that unite the Christchurch<br />

community,” said Bishop Peter.<br />

Truman is a devoted family<br />

man. He and his wife Johannah<br />

have three children - Edward, 4,<br />

Toby, 2, and Thomas, 1.<br />

Truman said he is “delighted<br />

and humbled to be serving in<br />

this role at such an<br />

important time in the<br />

cathedral’s history”.<br />

“The cathedral is a place<br />

where all people can feel<br />

spiritually at home,” he said.<br />

“I am excited about reestablishing<br />

the cathedral in the<br />

Square as central to the heart of<br />

the city and the Diocese.<br />

“I want the cathedral to<br />

be an inclusive space for<br />

everyone, a place of welcome<br />

and hospitality, irrespective of<br />

people’s faith or beliefs.<br />

“We are more than halfway<br />

through the cathedral’s rebuild.<br />

“In four years’ time it will<br />

reopen its doors and continue<br />

to play its key part in our city’s<br />

identity.”<br />

Truman grew up in<br />

Greymouth. He said he felt the<br />

call to the ministry even at high<br />

school. But first he worked as a<br />

high school drama teacher and<br />

Brigade’s first motorised engine<br />

sometimes required a push<br />

In the lead up to its<br />

150th anniversary<br />

celebration over Labour<br />

weekend, the Lyttelton<br />

Volunteer Fire Brigade<br />

looks back at its past in<br />

a regular column<br />

IN PREPARATION for the<br />

brigade’s 150th anniversary<br />

celebrations, there has been<br />

a lot of deep diving into the<br />

archives.<br />

After the February 22, 2011<br />

earthquake, and the subsequent<br />

loss of the fire station,<br />

those archives were all over<br />

the place.<br />

One black and white negative<br />

that surfaced was this<br />

one, showing the brigade’s<br />

first motorised fire appliance<br />

– a 1923 Dodge.<br />

On the left is Superintendent<br />

Bob Carson and foreman<br />

George Lester, clearly dating<br />

the photo in the early 19<strong>30</strong>s.<br />

The Dodge had no pumping<br />

capacity, but it did carry all<br />

the necessary equipment and<br />

up to 16 firemen.<br />

But not always.<br />

Sometimes, on Lyttelton’s<br />

steepest streets, the only<br />

fireman still on board was the<br />

driver.<br />

The remainder were either<br />

carrying equipment – or<br />

pushing.<br />

Unfortunately the Dodge<br />

is no longer a going concern,<br />

but over the Labour weekend<br />

celebrations a static display<br />

of other past and current fire<br />

appliances will feature on the<br />

Saturday.<br />

Memorabilia such as 150th<br />

anniversary coins, t-shirts,<br />

polo shirts and hoodies are<br />

now available – and keep an<br />

eye out for the book.<br />

Tool to monitor disease in wastewater<br />

A TEAM OF researchers,<br />

including Canterbury<br />

University’s Dr Leighton Watson<br />

and Professor Michael Plank,<br />

have combined wastewater data<br />

with reported case numbers to<br />

create a statistical model that<br />

could be used to inform public<br />

health responses to infectious<br />

diseases worldwide.<br />

Their study is based on<br />

data from the Institute of<br />

Environmental Science and<br />

Research wastewater Covid<br />

surveillance programme and<br />

Covid data collected across the<br />

country.<br />

The disease surveillance<br />

tool analyses data in a way<br />

no other study has previously<br />

done – combining wastewater<br />

data and reported case<br />

numbers to estimate how<br />

the case ascertainment rate,<br />

or proportion of infections<br />

reported, has changed over time.<br />

The model also estimates the<br />

effective reproduction number.<br />

Watson’s model provides a<br />

clearer picture of the state of<br />

an epidemic, disease dynamics<br />

and infections in the community.<br />

“While the results are not<br />

the only piece to the puzzle,<br />

the model could be used as an<br />

additional source of information<br />

to inform public health policy<br />

decisions and hospital capacity<br />

planning,” said Watson, who is a<br />

lecturer at the university’s school<br />

of mathematics and<br />

statistics.<br />

He said the model<br />

could be used by any<br />

country where most<br />

people are connected to<br />

the wastewater system.<br />

The model could be<br />

applied nationally or<br />

regionally and help<br />

inform planning of<br />

public health responses<br />

Leighton<br />

Watson<br />

to multiple infectious diseases.<br />

Watson said over time<br />

Government restrictions<br />

and testing guidelines<br />

have been eased.<br />

“At first, people<br />

would test every time<br />

they got a sore throat.<br />

Anecdotally, now it<br />

seems like many people<br />

are assuming they are<br />

just under the weather<br />

because, for example,<br />

PHOTO: GETTY<br />

their kids bring every single bug<br />

possible home from school.”<br />

Watson said fewer cases could<br />

mean fewer infections or fewer<br />

people reporting.<br />

Reported cases during the<br />

second wave in July 2022 were<br />

significantly lower than in the<br />

first wave in February and<br />

March 2022.<br />

However, the model suggests<br />

there was a substantial drop in<br />

case ascertainment between<br />

the waves and true numbers of<br />

infections were actually similar.<br />

Wastewater surveillance has<br />

proven to provide valuable<br />

data on Covid trends in the<br />

community in New Zealand and<br />

overseas. This led the research<br />

team to investigate how clinical<br />

and wastewater data could be<br />

combined to provide a better<br />

overall picture of the pandemic.<br />

“Everyone who lives<br />

somewhere that’s linked up to<br />

the town wastewater system is<br />

going to shed the virus into the<br />

wastewater if they have Covid.<br />

If they are plumbed into the<br />

wastewater system and we are<br />

sampling it, we can pick that<br />

up independent of whether<br />

people are testing or not,” said<br />

Watson.<br />

According to the researchers<br />

the model provides the most<br />

accurate source of data on<br />

case ascertainment rate and<br />

effective reproduction numbers<br />

currently available, the<br />

researchers said.<br />

Watson and Plank worked<br />

alongside research colleagues<br />

from ESR and the University of<br />

Oxford’s department of statistics<br />

in England.<br />

Their research was funded<br />

by the Ministry of Health, the<br />

Public Health Agency and the<br />

Department of Prime Minister<br />

and Cabinet.<br />

Kowhai Vet Brings a Fresh Approach to Pet Care<br />

new haven for the well-being of companion animals has<br />

A recently opened its doors in Opawa. Nestled in the heart<br />

of the community with convenient access from surrounding<br />

areas, this unique veterinary clinic has created a warm,<br />

welcoming environment where clients and their furry<br />

companions will immediately feel at ease. The thoughtfully<br />

designed layout comprises separate entrances for cats and<br />

dogs leading into spacious waiting areas where friendly<br />

staff will greet your pet with a selection of treats. The added<br />

touch of soothing aromatherapy scents and background<br />

music create an oasis of calm, ensuring a positive experience<br />

for everyone involved.<br />

Kowhai Vet stands out not only for its relaxed feel, but also<br />

for its commitment to delivering a personal approach to<br />

each client and their furry friends. Recognising that many<br />

animals and their owners experience anxiety around vet<br />

visits, the friendly team of vets and nurses maintain an<br />

ethos of fear-free patient care. Longer appointment slots<br />

ensure that there’s ample time to thoroughly discuss a pet’s<br />

individual needs, and allows the clinic’s veterinarians to<br />

perform examinations with a slow and gentle approach,<br />

appreciating that building a foundation of trust is essential<br />

to diagnosing and treating any ailment.<br />

From left: Sarah Gifford, Jane Jones, Stephanie McLafferty,<br />

Billie Malyon, Millie Greig.<br />

Clinic owner, Stephanie, explains: “We understand that<br />

a trip to the vet clinic can be an emotional and stressful<br />

experience for the client and their pet. Whilst we cannot<br />

always expect to remove that stress entirely, we can do our<br />

best to minimise it and work with the owners to make their<br />

experience as positive as possible. We believe in taking time<br />

to listen and build relationships with our clients so that,<br />

together, we can tailor our treatment to<br />

provide the optimum healthcare for their<br />

cherished pets.”<br />

Experienced veterinarians,<br />

Stephanie McLafferty and Jane Jones<br />

provide a comprehensive range of<br />

services from routine health checks<br />

and vaccinations to more advanced<br />

treatments, surgical procedures,<br />

dental treatments, and much more.<br />

The skilled and knowledgeable<br />

nurses, Billie, Sarah and Millie, are also<br />

available to provide advice on a range of<br />

topics, from flea and worm products, diet and dental care to<br />

training tips and environmental enrichment for your pets,<br />

with an array of healthcare products, toys and tools in stock,<br />

catering to their intellectual and physical well-being.<br />

Kowhai Vet’s commitment to care extends beyond its walls.<br />

They maintain an emphasis on supporting local enterprises<br />

with their range of New Zealand-made treats, food, and<br />

grooming products. A focus on sustainability forms part of<br />

their core values, influencing product choices and systems.<br />

Plus, for every new patient welcomed, a native tree takes<br />

root in the region. With over 500 trees already funded, this<br />

initiative speaks volumes about the clinic’s dedication to<br />

environmental stewardship, mirroring the care they provide<br />

to their four-legged clients.<br />

Support a locally-owned and operated business<br />

by visiting Kowhai Vet today and experience<br />

another level of veterinary care. With its welcoming<br />

atmosphere, fear-free philosophy, and unwavering<br />

commitment to sustainability and local partnerships,<br />

they set a new benchmark for pet care. Your pets<br />

will thank you, and you’ll leave knowing that your<br />

companions are in the best of hands.<br />

STAGE ONE of the<br />

Putaringamotu Riccarton<br />

Bush Enhancement Project<br />

will begin in April next year.<br />

The project aims to<br />

create spaces that support<br />

education, enhance cultural<br />

understanding, improve<br />

accessibility, conserve native<br />

flora and fauna as well as<br />

optimise the overall experience<br />

at Riccarton Bush.<br />

This project is set to cost<br />

$2.4 million, and Riccarton<br />

Bush Trust Board manager<br />

Shona Willis said they started<br />

fundraising at the beginning<br />

of this year and have so far<br />

raised $460,000.<br />

“We have split the project<br />

into two stages, and we need<br />

$1.2 million to complete stage<br />

one, which will involve all the<br />

infrastructure while stage two<br />

focuses on the design,” she<br />

said.<br />

Willis said the bush will<br />

close for three to six months<br />

while work is being completed<br />

and through that time they<br />

will continue to fundraise.<br />

“We have been turned down<br />

by three funders so far that we<br />

applied to, but they had a clear<br />

criteria they said our project<br />

didn’t match,” she said.<br />

Willis said they are still<br />

searching for substantial<br />

funding.<br />

“We have been making<br />

approaches to major<br />

fundraisers and we also have<br />

a funding source from the city<br />

council’s Long Term Plan, as<br />

well as our own funds we have<br />

been putting aside since 2021,”<br />

Willis said.<br />

Riccarton Bush ranger Mike<br />

Steenson said the project is<br />

being done on a needs basis.<br />

“The tracks have reached the<br />

end of their use by date, they<br />

are rotten, are trip hazards and<br />

we want to make them more<br />

accessible to the public for<br />

prams and wheelchair access,”<br />

he said.<br />

Board chairman Bob<br />

Shearing said they want to do<br />

it all properly and look at the<br />

bigger picture.<br />

“It is a major asset to the<br />

area, and we are relying on the<br />

community to support us. It is<br />

near everything in town, but<br />

it feels like a different world<br />

when you step into it,” he said.<br />

THIS WEEK’S local photograph<br />

features teenagers Suzanne<br />

and Annette Bachop with<br />

their horses on Winchester St,<br />

Lyttelton, on September <strong>30</strong>,<br />

1961.<br />

So what were the girls doing<br />

with their equine friends in the<br />

middle of the road? The occasion<br />

was a fair at the Anglican<br />

Church of the Most Holy Trinity,<br />

known locally as simply Holy<br />

Trinity.<br />

Suzanne, with her retired<br />

trotter Flora Dawn, and Annette,<br />

with her little pony Ace, gave<br />

penny rides to children at the<br />

fair to raise money for the<br />

church.<br />

Behind the girls the Upham<br />

Clock and Lyttelton gaol site<br />

are clearly visible, and the low<br />

density of housing on the hillside<br />

is before the wave of infill<br />

building of later decades.<br />

The Bachop girls lived with<br />

their family first at Hawkhurst<br />

Rd, later moving to Jacksons Tce,<br />

and attended Lyttelton Main<br />

School.<br />

They were part of the extended<br />

Bachop family which has made<br />

its mark in both Lyttelton and<br />

wider afield, including Suzanne’s<br />

cousins of national rugby<br />

fame.<br />

Their father, Tom Bachop,<br />

bought a nine-acre paddock near<br />

the start of the Bridle Path – at<br />

one time they grazed as many as<br />

five horses there.<br />

The girls delivered papers<br />

around Lyttelton on their<br />

horses; Annette collected the<br />

Christchurch Press from an<br />

office on Oxford St and Suzanne<br />

met the 4.<strong>30</strong>pm train from<br />

Christchurch at the Lyttelton<br />

Railway Station for The Star<br />

newspapers.<br />

TREASURES FROM THE PAST 19<br />

Horses, theatre and delivery rounds<br />

There was also time for fun. On<br />

a weekend the girls might go up<br />

the Bridle Path with frypan and<br />

potatoes and cook their lunch<br />

in the hills (free range eggs and<br />

foraged fruit would add to the<br />

feast if they were lucky).<br />

Hot summer days meant<br />

fishing and swimming off the<br />

wharves or at Corsair <strong>Bay</strong>. Suzanne<br />

loved sports and notably<br />

played hockey for Canterbury for<br />

a number of years.<br />

In our second photograph, Suzanne<br />

is holding her cornet in her<br />

Lyttelton Marine Band uniform<br />

on February 23, 1964, the day<br />

the Lyttelton Road Tunnel was<br />

opened. It also happened to be<br />

her 16th birthday!<br />

With her fellow band members<br />

Suzanne went into the tunnel a<br />

few hundred metres in formation,<br />

playing a march, before<br />

making their way out and up to<br />

the Upham Memorial Garden to<br />

take part in the official opening<br />

ceremony.<br />

After leaving school Suzanne<br />

was employed briefly at the<br />

Lichfield Shirt Factory and local<br />

supermarket and then with the<br />

Post Office delivering telegrams<br />

and undertaking relief work.<br />

A pushbike was provided for<br />

the rounds but Suzanne wisely<br />

upgraded with her own Yamaha<br />

55cc scooter to take on Lyttelton’s<br />

steep hills. When she delivered<br />

a telegram to the Saxon Hotel<br />

on Norwich Quay she would<br />

be given a refreshing raspberry<br />

and lemonade. When she took<br />

a telegram to the Holmdale, the<br />

coastal trader which regularly<br />

serviced the Chatham Islands,<br />

she remembers a welcome cup of<br />

hot vegetable soup from the cook<br />

on a cold day.<br />

Suzanne married Frank<br />

Moloney in 1968, who was the<br />

manager and projectionist at the<br />

<strong>Harbour</strong> Light Theatre for a time<br />

in the 1960s. He ran other small<br />

theatres in Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong>,<br />

Cheviot, and Methven, and his<br />

career also took him to Timaru,<br />

Wellington, and Rotorua.<br />

Suzanne served 41 years as<br />

payroll clerk and store supervisor<br />

at Sinclair Melbourne (which<br />

later became Lyttelton Engineering),<br />

a time she remembers with<br />

fondness for the fun had alongside<br />

hard work. Now retired, they<br />

live in Heathcote, just through<br />

the tunnel that Suzanne proudly<br />

took part in opening.<br />

We are grateful to Suzanne for<br />

sharing some of her wonderful<br />

reminiscences of growing<br />

up in the 1960s in Ōhinehou<br />

Lyttelton. We also extend our<br />

sincere condolences for the recent<br />

passing of her sister Annette.<br />

The Bone Hacker<br />

by Kathy Reichs<br />

#1 New York Times bestselling author Kathy Reichs returns<br />

with a high-stakes thriller featuring forensic anthropologist<br />

Temperance Brennan who, following a series of bizarre<br />

disappearances on the islands of Turks and Caicos, enters<br />

a sinister labyrinth in which a new technology may wreak<br />

worldwide havoc. Called in to examine what is left of a body<br />

struck by lightning, Tempe traces an unusual tattoo to its source<br />

and is soon embroiled in a much larger case. Young men - tourists - have<br />

been disappearing on the islands of Turks and Caicos for years. Seven years<br />

ago, the first victim was found in a strange location with both hands cut off;<br />

the other visitors vanished without a trace. But, recently, tantalising leads have<br />

emerged and only Tempe can unravel them. Maddeningly, the victims seem to<br />

have nothing in common - other than the strange locations where their bodies<br />

are eventually found, and the fact that the young men all seem to be the least<br />

likely to be involved in foul play. Do these attacks have something to do with<br />

the islands’ seething culture of gang violence? Tempe isn’t so sure. And then<br />

she turns up disturbing clues that what’s at stake may actually have global<br />

significance. It isn’t long before the sound of a ticking clock grows menacingly<br />

loud, and then Temper herself becomes a target.<br />

Our Land in Colour<br />

by Jock Phillips and Brendan Graham<br />

A breathtaking collection of 200 photographs expertly colourised by Aotearoa<br />

New Zealand’s premier colourist, Brendan Graham, with commentary from awardwinning<br />

historian Jock Phillips ONZM. Our Land in Colour celebrates the rich story<br />

of Aotearoa through the restoration of images never before seen in colour. Two<br />

hundred images have been meticulously colourised, opening a window back in<br />

time with remarkable detail. Aotearoa New Zealand from 1860 to 1960 was a world<br />

of black and white. It was a time when communities were isolated, made their lives<br />

from the land and lived an identity forged by the outdoors. Our Land in Colour is<br />

the way New Zealanders experienced life for a century before colour photography<br />

became prevalent, before large-scale urbanisation, and before the arrival of<br />

television and jet-airliners changed the nation forever. From how the people<br />

adapted to the environment and the way they had to feed, clothe, house and<br />

transport themselves across an at times inhospitable land, to how they banded<br />

together with a spirit that would become famously Kiwi - each image in this 400-<br />

page book is a reminder of who we were and where we’ve come from.<br />

24 <strong>Bay</strong> <strong>Harbour</strong> News Wednesday <strong>August</strong> <strong>30</strong> <strong>2023</strong><br />

Nissan’s Qashqai a strong performer<br />

Motoring with Bob Nettleton<br />

THE QASHQAI compact<br />

urban SUV, with its inventive<br />

fuel-saving low-emission hybrid<br />

technology, is a breakthrough<br />

model for Nissan in this part of<br />

the world.<br />

A new platform underpins this<br />

latest Qashqai, with increased<br />

torsional stiffness provided by<br />

greater use of high-strength steel.<br />

Despite an increase in stiffness,<br />

the body shell is a remarkable<br />

60kg lighter than before.<br />

In Europe and the UK, they<br />

love the Qashqai. On this side of<br />

the world it is, at best, a steady<br />

seller. The company is expecting<br />

big things from this latest model,<br />

which offers a step up in refinement,<br />

safety and technology<br />

– and unfortunately prices, compared<br />

to the vehicle it replaces.<br />

Affordability could be an issue<br />

with the entry level ST kicking<br />

off at $45,990, $8k more than the<br />

outgoing model. There no hiding<br />

the fact this is a big increase<br />

over the previous version, even<br />

allowing for major advances on<br />

every front. You do get more<br />

Qashqai for your dollar with<br />

this latest iteration bigger across<br />

the board. It’s 4425mm long<br />

(+31mm), 1625mm tall (+<strong>30</strong>mm),<br />

and 1835mm wide (+29mm),<br />

while the wheelbase has grown to<br />

2665mm (+19mm).<br />

HANDY: The motion-activated tailgate is great if you’re<br />

juggling luggage.<br />

REFINEMENT: The Nissan Qashqai offers plenty of technology, leading edge safety features<br />

and more sophisticated rear suspension across every model.<br />

There’s plenty of technology,<br />

leading edge safety features, and<br />

a more sophisticated multi-link<br />

rear suspension set-up across<br />

every model. There’s also more<br />

variety in the powertrain department,<br />

with a new and feisty<br />

1.3-litre turbo petrol, and the<br />

option of Nissan’s innovative<br />

e-POWER hybrid system. This<br />

carries a $7k price premium over<br />

the turbo petrol motor.<br />

Petrol, not e-power, dominates<br />

the six strong model range,<br />

which comprises four petrol variants<br />

starting with the price leading<br />

$45,995 ST and stretching to<br />

$56,990 for the flagship Ti-L.<br />

E-power is limited to the<br />

upmarket Ti and Ti-L priced at<br />

$59,990 and $65,680 respectively.<br />

The latter version of this duo was<br />

supplied for this road test. These<br />

hefty asking prices put the Qashqai<br />

at the high end of its class. In<br />

fact, you can buy its larger sibling<br />

the X-Trail e-power in the same<br />

upmarket spec for another $1200.<br />

For that modest investment, you<br />

get a larger vehicle, greater versatility<br />

and the better re-sale of an<br />

AWD SUV.<br />

Most hybrid systems use<br />

an electric motor and a petrol<br />

engine to drive their wheels.<br />

Nissan’s e-POWER does things<br />

differently with its wheels powered<br />

exclusively by an electric<br />

motor. The e-POWER system<br />

was first seen in the Japan-only<br />

Nissan Note in 2016, powering<br />

on from that initial success to<br />

claim best-selling car in Japan<br />

two years later.<br />

The second-generation<br />

e-POWER technology used<br />

in the latest Qashqai pairs the<br />

effortless acceleration and refined<br />

performance of an electric motor,<br />

similar in size and power output<br />

to those fitted in pure Nissan’s<br />

EVs. It’s a strong high-energy<br />

performer with 140kw of power<br />

and 3<strong>30</strong>nm of torque to take<br />

command of most driving scenarios.<br />

Thanks to the pure electric<br />

motor, there’s none of the power-delivery<br />

hesitancy associated<br />

with an internal combustion engine<br />

or traditional hybrid set-ups.<br />

The instant response provides a<br />

high-torque feel and exhilarating<br />

acceleration, on lower fuel use<br />

and emissions.<br />

The e-POWER system delivers<br />

its torque almost instantly,<br />

enhancing the vehicle’s responsiveness.<br />

A new-generation CVT<br />

(Constant Variable Transmission)<br />

delivers better fuel economy<br />

and produces a lot less friction.<br />

There are three drive modes at<br />

your disposal, Eco, Normal and<br />

Sport. All these upgrades are big<br />

improvements on the lethargic<br />

CVT that blunted the performance<br />

of the previous model.<br />

For a compact urban SUV this<br />

one is roomier than most, with<br />

plenty of passenger and load<br />

space. The Ti-L supplied for this<br />

road test is the jewel in the Qashqai<br />

crown and sparkles when it<br />

comes luxury features.<br />

There’s a panoramic glass<br />

roof and electric sunshade, a<br />

black headliner and ambient<br />

interior lighting. Cabin technology<br />

features a 10.8-inch colour<br />

head-up display, and a premium<br />

10-speaker BOSE audio system.<br />

The seats are accented in plush by<br />

rather dated looking 3D quilted<br />

premium leather, with memory<br />

and massage functions for frontseat<br />

passenger and driver.<br />

A motion activated tailgate is<br />

great if you’re juggling an armful<br />

of groceries in the supermarket<br />

car park. Simply wave your hand<br />

or foot at the tailgate and the rear<br />

hatch opens like magic.<br />

Nissan Intelligent Mobility<br />

safety features are impressive.<br />

It includes Intelligent Cruise<br />

Control, Forward Emergency<br />

Braking, plus pedestrian, cyclist,<br />

and junction detection capabilities.<br />

You also have peace-of-mind<br />

safety in the form of Lane Departure<br />

Warning and Departure<br />

Prevention and Blind Spot Warning.<br />

High Beam Assist makes<br />

DIY dipping of your headlights<br />

at night for on-coming traffic a<br />

thing of the past.<br />

A lot of hype surrounds the<br />

new Qashqai’s advanced multi-link<br />

rear suspension. This configuration<br />

means it excels when<br />

subjected to sudden direction<br />

changes, or different road cambers.<br />

Well-controlled body-roll,<br />

comfort and the effective isolation<br />

of road noise and vibrations<br />

from the passenger compartment<br />

are among the best in the compact<br />

urban SUV class.<br />

There been a rework of the<br />

steering with revised ratios<br />

offering quicker corner turn-in<br />

response. I’m not sure this rejig<br />

hits all its KPIs. Overall, it puts in<br />

a solid effort. However, at times<br />

the steering felt light and a bit<br />

thin on road feel and is an area<br />

that isn’t as accomplished as the<br />

rest of the vehicle.<br />

4 bedrooms, 1 living, 1 dining, 2 bathrooms, 2 car garaging<br />

A vision of contemporary design, this near-new home with architectural<br />

credentials is poised magnificently on the mid-slopes of Mt Pleasant, commanding<br />

expansive views across the estuary to Pegasus <strong>Bay</strong>, the distant southern Alps and<br />

ocean.<br />

Nestled on a private approx. 1269 sqm parcel adorned with established trees, this<br />

sanctuary-style environment captivates from the outset. Enclosed in cedar and<br />

steel, the home’s interiors illustrate refinement, with timber floors, a pared-back<br />

palette and broad expanses of glass accentuating the outlook to promote yearround<br />

serenity.<br />

Completed in 2019 and unfolding across approx 210sqm, the predominantly<br />

single level floor plan floor plan has been cleverly conceived for family<br />

adaptability, showcasing a versatile mezzanine capable of becoming a fourth<br />

bedroom, home office, media room or children’s retreat.<br />

Primed to attract a range of buyers, it’s a short walk from Mt Pleasant Primary and<br />

close to the area’s coveted coastal conveniences. Contact Paula or simon for more<br />
