Everyone in CPT ‘knocked off’ at 12:30, took a short drive down the road and went for lunch and some golf at the River Club.

In true ‘Cape Town’ style the wind was blowing a gale, but that didn’t get us down.

Lunch was followed by a golf competition, golf being a first for many of us!

After many laughs, a few ‘mis-swings’ and some decent ‘on target’ shots, it was Rudi who came out on top!

A brilliant afternoon was had by all!

In Graham’s words, ‘the only one to reach 70 years old at Sapphire this far!’ Hats off to you Zurina!

Last Sunday, 23 October 2016, eight motoring journalists took part in the Volkswagen Media Challenge powered by the South African Guild of Motoring Journalists,  backed by Cell-C along with contingency sponsors Engen, Dunlop, Sapphire Logistics, ATS Race Supplies through OMP Race Wear and Oracle Branding.

The journalists were Andrew Leopold, Denis Droppa, Mark Jones, Michele Lupini, Sean Nurse, Mark Smyth, Lindsay Smyth, and Janine van der Post. They each competed behind the wheel of a standard 1.2 Polo.

Volkswagen South Africa made this challenge possible by building and making available eight race ready Polos.

Sapphire thank Volkswagen South Africa for allowing has to be part of this momentous event and giving us the opportunity to have our brand proudly displayed on one of the race ready Polos.

Casual Day 2016 at Sapphire! We definitely brought our game!!!
