I was leaving my Saturday morning session with Bob Skinstad at KFM, when I noticed a truck offloading some goods. The side of the truck had a man and a woman advertising a brand of mattress. They were in a state of undress and it was very clear that this couple were on the verge […]
If you’re a babe then you’re about to find parking a whole lot easier at the V&A Waterfront! And if you’re a minger, you better hope you’ve got a child with you, otherwise you’re gonna have to park at the back. Check out the new markings at the V&A Waterfront: BEWARE.. “Sorry madam, but we’re […]
Harders sent in this beautiful pic taken very recently. You’ll notice how a hose pipe can very easily be used as a tyre. What’s going on here? Oh hello! Absolutely brilliant! Not a bad idea at all – especially with the price of tyres these days – I may well do the same thing. Although, […]

So I was leaving Cavendish Square on Friday after a thoroughly enjoyable Chunky Chicken Wrap at Sumo, which was preceeded by an awesome session Guest Speaking to the UCT Business Science Honours students. A good day, all in all.. That was until I drove out of the Cavendish Square car park. I joined the spiral […]
That’s how we were rolling at the BMW International Polo on Saturday, as we drowned in oysters and champagne. It was my first polo game, as we watched SA demolish take on Italy. Everyone was there, from Ryk and Vanessa to Michelle and Roxy – not to mention my buddies Julian and Wimpie from Top […]
It’s pretty damn clever, I must say. Instead of the usual guidelines that car companies give their designers like “a family car” or “something sexy,” the powers that be at Maserati gave them simple direction, “make Seth Rotherham cry.” This, my friends, is the Maserati GranCabrio. Jalopnik had this to say: The GranCabrio represents […]
If you’re even remotely into cars, the 27th and 28th of February is something the need to diarise. The world famous Franschhoek Motor Museum is opening it’s doors slightly further than usual, allowing some of the classic, luxury and turbo-charged vehicles to stretch their legs for a classic moroting celebration on L’Ormarins Wine Farm, in […]
Spotted around town.. The Mayor – keeps it simple.. Very cool.. [thanks sox]
To do it right you need some essential skills. For me, my “skill set” is pretty vast, to say the least. To begin with, I’m pretty quick off the mark. I beat Craig Lorden (The Lord) in a foot race in London a few years ago, and Craig is well known for his pace. I […]
These guys might want to address whatever it is that is making cars swim, instead of drive. This morning’s incident was very similar and in nearly the same spot as the one that occurred eight days ago (here). Here are pics of this morning’s plummet. Good grief! I hope everyone is ok.. Seriously guys, what’s […]
Pretty radical vibe going on over the edge of Victoria Road today. We received the following shot this morning from intrepid 2oceansvibe Character and model/athlete/stock brokerphoto-journalist, The Dude. A car goes off Victoria Road Which was followed by these very fresh photo’s taken over lunch time. This, from 2oceansviber, Jane C : Howzit! These pics […]
Yesterday’s story about the secret businessman who had a dream and went to Table Mountain to gave his Audi R8 to two car guards, has become the talk of the town. With this morning’s e-TV revelations that he also gave away his house, we simply must find out more! 2oceansvibe got hold of a telephone […]
No, I am not spicing you. The unidentified man bought the car (and Audi R8) in December (probably from Audi Centre Cape Town) for around R1.4m and reckons that he had a dream, telling him to come to Table Mountain. So he rocks up at the mountain, asks the car guards who has drivers licenses […]
Living the holiday.. Snow monkeys: Japanese Macaques Living The Holiday – In sub-zero temperatures, Japanese macaques soak in the warmth of a volcanic hotspring at Jigokudani (Hell’s Valley) in Nagano Province, Japan – the only known place in the world where monkeys bathe in natural hot springs. You can even watch them live on a […]
Incredible phrases and names on our local taxi’s have always amused me. Classics like “Dance with my father” and “Good luck to those who hate me” will be remembered forever. So will this one, I’m sure, as we witness the beauty of misunderstood and/or misspelt phrases being printed on taxis – always funny. Awesome.. Seriously, […]
In November I alerted you about the Seth Rotherham feature in the ELLE Magazine. I didn’t publish it in full on these pages, as the magazine was still in circulation. It is now off the shelves and has coincidentally become one of their most successful issues ever. Weird.. especially with that issue of YOU Magazine […]
Yesterday I “tweeted” something about the magical road that transports you from the new Green Point circle (next to the stadium) directly to the Waterfront (the preferred back entry near the Radisson hotel). There is no easier route to get to the Waterfront. Even if I was driving into town from the N2, I would […]
President Jacob Zuma and his new bride share the first dance Your President Got Married Yesterday – Whilst press were apparently barred from attending Jay Z’s wedding yesterday, The Guardian did a fine job collecting a series of photographs from the event. Including Zuma dancing, and falling and all kinds of general tomfoolery. [guardian] Johnson […]
This photo was taken by a friend of a friend in Durban. It seems the driver of the vehicle fancies himself as a gangster rapper, as you will notice he has superimposed his own picture in and amongst those of famous hard-core gangster rappers. On his car’s back windshield, no less. Click image to enlarge. […]

Is it just sitting there on the table? Annoying you? It’s such a small amount of money, but we all know that the cost is not what we are fearing – it’s the queues at the Traffic Department – oh, the pain! When is the best time to get there? And, when I get there, […]
Twas a mere month ago that we brought you stunning images of that gentleman who risked his life hanging onto the back of a truck. Sigh.. such is the public transport situation these days. Not to be outdone, this chap took things to the next level and rode on TOP of a vehicle. “Just stay […]

That’s right, my sweet smelling friends, Jeremy Clarkson and the crew are stopping by as part of their Top Gear Live […]
I know what you’re thinking. How can it get to this level? It’s quite silly, really – it’s like we’re playing this game on “easy” mode.. Behold, the ULTIMATE Christmas gift.. Due to the overwhelming amount of awesome videos on 2oceansvibe, you can’t be expected to watch it all – and let’s face it, not […]
I feel quite bad that I chilled at Pearl Valley until just before the concert. It kills me that we drove in at the last minute and got VIP parking and grabbed a beer before being escorted to the Heineken VIP tent and then into the Golden Circle. I genuinely do feel bad. CLICK HERE […]
I wasn’t really sure what to expect when I visited the Reddam House Grade 7’s yesterday at 08h45. That will probably explain why I was tweeting you so many awesome photographs (here and here) this morning as I made my way from The Safe House to Reddam House Private School in Sea Point. Reddam House […]

Looking at the picture, the fantasy is all there, but I don’t know how fantastic it will be after I buy it and Marisa is […]
There’s no “dicking” around in Jozi when it comes to the cops and the way they “roll.” In a move than can only be described as “larney,” the boys in blue have gone for Mercs as their vehicle of choice. Check this shit out: Hah! Don’t you just LOVE the name of the unit? PROTOCAL […]
Tiger Woods’s Facial Injuries Were Not From a Car Accident – Unless you’re calling his wife a car? Tiger Woods did not suffer facial lacerations from a car accident. They were inflicted by his wife, Elin Nordegren — according to a conversation Woods had Friday after the accident. And now the cops have issued a […]
