Originally released in 2010 and first hinted at as the Kue concept car, star of the 2007 Detroit Motor Show, the 2013 update is more of a mild update. After all why change a successful formula.
The external design with the now familiar Peter Schreyer grill treatment remains one of the best looking in its class. The frontal nose treatment, steeply raked ‘C’ pillar and compact almost coupe design is enhanced with integrated roof rails, rear spoiler and new HID headlamps, static cornering lamps and aero blade front wipers. The rear reflector cluster now incorporates fog lamps and a slight variation to the lower bumper design.
Rob Fraser – General dogsbody & Director
Rob is the founder of the business. He constantly mutters something about way too many red wines one evening being to blame.
Often known for taking the 4WD in the driveway over the sports car, he has travelled pretty much everywhere in Australia and when he is bored goes for a drive.
He first learned to drive on the farm in a left hand drive WW11 Jeep when he was 11, and was hooked on 4WDriving way back then. In addition to 4WD he is an avid motoring enthusiast and has maintained a strong interest in the industry ever since his teens. He has owned way too many cars in his time as well.
Having previously lived at the top of corporate life he retired in 2000 and hasn’t put a suit and tie on since. Cars are his passion so why not have a business doing what you love he figures.
He has towed either a caravan or camper trailer to most parts of Australia, has run guided tours for camper trailers’ and instructed drivers in off road towing.
