The Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz was the height of luxury for 1960 with sweeping chrome, front and rear grilles and a fiberglass convertible top boot cover.

One big-finned land yacht wasn’t enough for Victoria couple Ron Tomlinson’s gold 1960 convertible is one of only 1,285 Eldorado Biarritz convertibles made. One of a pair of ‘his and hers’ finned Cadillac convertibles owned ALYN EDWARDS by the Langford car CLASSIC enthusiast and his wife, RIDES Miriam, it’s equipped with everything but a toaster. The red one is the standard 62 series. Both have huge fins with front and rear grilles resembling a jukebox of the same era. Gargantuan land yachts, yes. And, no: you don’t need a special driver’s license to pilot one. These Caddies are surprisingly nimble to drive with the four corners very visible. Parade dignitaries have discovered that crowds pay more attention to the car they are riding in than them. Since the 1959 Cadillac had twin taillights mounted aboard Detroit’s most towering fins, the designers have been quoted as saying they got the 1959 design right in 1960. The 1960 Cadillac is representative of the last of the great romantic road cars. The owner’s manual has instructions regarding tire pressures and oil viscosity as if one will be cruising all day long at speeds in excess of 150 kilometres an hour. The 62 Series was the base model convertible. The 1960 Eldorado Biarritz convertible offered over-the-top luxury appointments and was nearly six metres long (225 inches), weighing in at 2,400 kilograms (5,060 pounds). Features include air ride suspension, air conditioning, cruise control, power everything, a custom fiberglass convertible top boot and triple two barrel carburetors delivering fuel to a giant 390 cubic inch (345 hp) engine. Ron Tomlinson literally bought his Eldorado Biarritz at a fire sale almost exactly 40 years ago. The owners had driven the car from Chicago when they

bought a campground near Nanaimo for a complete lifestyle change. Ron’s father, who had befriended the family and suggested they move to Vancouver Island, had surveyed the property for the owners of the Cadillac. Young Ron had dropped in to see the campground when the owner’s son showed him the big Cadillac Eldorado convertible. Ron told him he would love to buy the car if it ever came up for sale. Three years later, the son called Ron to tell him he could have the car. But there was a catch. The complicated triple carburetion setup had caused an engine fire as his mother was driving out of the campground and the car was no longer drivable. The insurance company was offering $500 for the car and planned to send it to the crusher.
The son said if Ron couldn’t fix the car, they would buy it back for the same price. Ron responded that he would buy the car and, if he couldn’t fix it, he would put the car up on blocks and polish it. For $750, Ron rewired the engine compartments and replaced the carburetors to put the car back on the road within a year. But it was five years before the body work and paint was done for $1,300. One of the first trips with the car was back to the campground for an emotional reunion with the family he had purchased the Eldorado Biarritz convertible from. Continued on Pg. B3

When it comes to today’s high tech cars and trucks, most drivers understand that following a scheduled maintenance program almost always costs less than paying for expensive repair surprises down the road. But which mistakes, bad decisions and missed maintenance items do the most damage to your vehicles? In a U.S. survey, certified Master Technicians, with more than 840 years of combined experience repairing cars, revealed the following top 10 maintenance mistakes car owners make when caring (or not caring) for their vehicles. 1. Putting off recommended / scheduled maintenance 2. Ignoring the “check engine” light 3. Not changing the oil, or not having it changed on time 4. Not checking tire pressure 5. Neglecting coolant, brake, transmission and other fluid services 6. Continuing to drive when the vehicle is overheating 7. Not changing fuel and air filters
No. 3 in the top 10, “not changing your oil” was listed by technicians as by far the single most damaging car maintenance item that their customers neglect that they wish they could change. Dirty oil ruins today’s hightech engines. Camshaft actuators can freeze when restricted by dirty oil, and a faulty camshaft actuator can in turn cause the “check engine” light to illuminate, resulting in complete engine failure if ignored for too long. Simply following the factoryrecommended oil change schedule helps vehicle owners avoid this problem, along with potentially hundreds, if not thousands of dollars in extra repair costs. Ignoring the “check engine” light is another example of how putting off repairs on a small problem can escalate to an expensive repair.

Ron and his wife were both teachers and the lavish gold Eldorado Biarritz convertible was a feature in the school parking lot when Ron drove the car daily for the first year. The couple brought their two sons home from the hospital in the car. They also took many vacation trips in the car to as far away as Glacier National Park, Jasper, Alberta, Mount Rainier, Washington and several trips to Oregon’s Forest Grove car show. “My wife was terrified to drive the car after I had it painted because she was afraid of scratching it,” he says. Ron’s answer to that was to buy his wife her own 1960 Cadillac convertible which he had painted a very bright red before being delivering it as a 25th wedding anniversary gift. The second 1960 Cadillac convertible was owned by a man in the same neighbourhood who wanted to sell it for $1,000 so he could buy a Corvette. Ron bought the Series 62 Cadillac convertible in 1985 and hid it from his wife for more than two years while he had the car restored. The Tomlinson’s have driven their rare pair of finned works of art in parades with Miriam piloting the gold Eldorado Biarritz and Ron following up with the red 62 Series convertible. “The satisfying thing about driving these cars is that they give so much joy to people,” Ron says. “Old and young people alike love these cars as representatives of the cars that we drove 50 years ago.” Ron is looking forward to displaying the ‘his and hers’ big-finned Cadillac convertibles at the 10th anniversary Cadillac Club of B.C. show which is expected to attract more than 100 vintage Cadillac and La Salle cars to Victoria’s Fort Rodd Hill national historic site on July 14.

New generation Santa Fe named the safest in its class METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM
The Hyundai New Generation Santa Fe has been named as the safest car in its class, assessed by Euro NCAP during 2012. Its scores across all test categories were best-in-class, making it one of the safest vehicles ever tested by the independent vehicle assessment organization and the best in the “Large
Off-Road 4x4” segment – ahead of the Mercedes-Benz M-Class and Range Rover. Of the 36 vehicles tested during 2012, the eight top-performers in their segments have been recommended by Euro NCAP for their leading levels of safety across a range of assessments. In the “adult occupant” category, New Generation Santa Fe scored 96 per cent with maximum points in the side barrier test.
The New Generation Santa Fe is the latest of a long line of Hyundai models to achieve the maximum five-star score in Euro NCAP’s rigorous assessment program.
In the “child occupant” category, the D-segment SUV received a score of 89 per cent, and features such as electronic stability control contributed to the car’s score of 86 per cent in the “safety assist” category. In a further demonstration of Hyundai’s commitment to safety, the New Generation Santa Fe is the brand’s first car to be equipped with an active
bonnet. This activates if a pedestrian is hit, reducing impact forces and reducing the risk of serious injury. The result of this is a “pedestrian safety” score of 71 per cent, making the New Generation Santa Fe stand out among its rivals in this category with the nearest high score being 63 per cent.

Most dynamic, powerful Rolls-Royce set to debut at Geneva Motor Show METROLAND MEDIA WHEELSTALK.COM
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has confirmed the launch of its next model, the RollsRoyce Wraith. The car will be presented for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show on March 5, with first deliveries to customers expected in the fourth quarter of 2013. Wraith will be the most dynamic, powerful and beautiful Rolls-Royce in the company’s history. It is a breathtaking car that will set a new benchmark in the ultra-luxury segment and will reaffirm the position of Rolls-Royce at the absolute pinnacle of automotive luxury. The launch will revive one of the most famous Rolls-Royce names first used in 1938.
Wraith will be the name of the next Rolls-Royce car and it will be aMotor Show in March.
Wraith draws inspiration from the story of the Honourable Charles Rolls, one of the company’s founding forefathers and a man who indulged a passion for innovation, engineering and, most importantly, adventure. Rolls was a passionate racing driver, balloonist and aviator winning the praise of King George V, who hailed him the “greatest hero of the day� on becoming the first person to cross the English Channel and return non-stop in a flying machine. Like Rolls, the new car embraces the very finest things in life – elegance, beauty, refinement and luxury – to be enjoyed by a new generation of confident gentlemen and women. It will boldly shape the future of RollsRoyce, building on the success of Phantom and Ghost, bringing new customers to the marque.
Daimler AG, Ford and Nissan sign unique three-way agreement Daimler AG, Ford Motor Company and Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., have signed a unique three-way agreement to accelerate the commercialization of fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) technology. The goal of the collaboration is to jointly develop a common fuel cell electric vehicle system while reducing
investment costs associated with the engineering of the technology. Each company will invest equally towards the project. The strategy to maximize design commonality, leverage volume and derive efficiencies through economies of scale will help to launch the world’s first affordable, mass-market
FCEVs as early as 2017. Together, Daimler, Ford and Nissan have more than 60 years of cumulative experience developing FCEVs. FCEVs have logged more than 10 million kilometres in test drives around the world in customers’ hands and as part of demonstration projects in
diverse conditions. The partners plan to develop a common fuel cell stack and fuel cell system that can be used by each company in the launch of highly differentiated, separately branded FCEVs, which produce no CO2 emissions while driving.
