“Tathra” the rare opportunity to have it all. Rural living in city limits. Period home Circa 1901 has all the attributes to provide what you like and renovate into what you will love. Kookaburras, magpies, ducks and birds always in the backdrop with the River Red Gums close enough to smell and have shade, and complemented by the safety of distance.

Original features greet you at the front door, solid timber and leadlight features, verandah with east morning sun that wraps around to the north and looks straight to the creek and gums.

Currently three bedrooms, lounge, dining, hallway and new kitchen. The outside indoor “boardroom” with combustion heating gets lots of everyday use. Separate laundry, bathroom, shower and toilet. New electric hot water system. Bed three currently upstairs with vaulted ceilings and studio apartment feel. Open fireplaces of the past era still in place, one with insert, one used as closed combustion and third chimney in place awaiting the awakening.

Extra ceiling heights, hard plaster, solid red brick construction from on-site bricks no doubt. Leadlighting, 19m X 12m shedding includes mezzanine and room to move and easy sealed access to the concrete apron.

Creek front. north facing lawns that fall to the creek from this high side. Just fantastic. Gas and sewer at the front gate.

Set at the rear of well established estate close to Cathedral College, pedestrian bridge and bike track. Private setting, period home, over two acres and 19m X 12m shedding that boasts sealed entrance and shade trees already in place.

Not able to get this combination of land size rural setting in city limits very often so call and set yourself to inspect asap. No time like the present.

■ LOOK AT ME, I’M A RAM: There’s nothing subtle about this truck.

RAM 1500 Limited DT - a monster of a truck hicle. So instead of just one step up to the cabin there are sort-of two stairs.

There’s plenty of space in all five seats, with legroom in the rear that owners of other people movers can only dream about.

The second row has 60/40 stadium folding and reclining seats that can slope back by up to eight degrees. There’s stretch out space for two in the back and even the person in the rear-centre seat has good space and comfort.

The RAM 1500 has fulllength dual-pane panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated leather seats.

In the load area 1.5 cubic metre tray can be specified with the excellent RamBox Cargo Management System for added usability. A powered tailgate allows ease of access.

DRIVING This is a big truck and while not exactly filling the Aussie-width lanes on motorways it does demand that you pay attention to avoid creeping into other lanes.

Similarly, on very narrow country roads the RAM 1500 takes not only its side of the road but pinches a bit from the other side. You may have to put the left-side wheels just off the road if something is coming the other way.

Cornering isn’t exactly sport-truck but it’s safe and predictable. Overtaking is simple thanks to all the grunt offered by that big V8 with its clever electrical torque.

It has new generation Active-Level Four Corner air suspension that’s adjustable to offered the best combination of ride, handling, off-road capability, load-

levelling and entry/exit convenience.

Official fuel consumption is a 12.2 litres per hundred kilometres, which might seem high, but don’t forget you’ve got close to three tonnes of vehicle to haul. On test we found it used nine to eleven litres per hundred km on motorways and flat-country cruising. That jumped to 15 to 17 litres per hundred around town. Not too bad for a big V8 truck and surely not many people would buy this for a daily suburban driving.

SUMMING UP RAM pickup trucks are as much about status as transporting loads. They look great, go hard, but don’t mind a drink. If you’ve got a budget that’s in the region of $150,000 there’s probably nothing else on the market that beats this big American.

Audi SQ5 is a genuine all-rounder

By ALISTAIR KENNEDY THE SQ5 is the hero model in Audi’s mid-sized Q5 range.

It’s been on sale here since 2013 when it introduced a new genre, the sporty(ish) SUV. Under the bonnet SQ5 has had something of an identity crisis over the years. From 2013 to 2017 it was powered by a 3.0-litre TDI turbo-diesel, before switching over to a 3.0-litre TFSI petrol through until 2020 when it reverted, by popular demand, to diesel power courtesy of a more powerful 3.0-litre with mildhybrid technology - all that from $106,500.

INTERIOR Entry is easy and the Nappa leather seats are comfortable and supportive. The front sports seats have heating and a choice of three differ-

ent massage settings. Fit and finish is impeccable with high quality materials throughout. .

SAFETY Audi SQ5’s full suite of safety and assistance starts with eight airbags, enhanced ABS brakes and Electronic Stabilisation Control with electronic wheel-selective torque control.

DRIVING One of the most fascinating features, and a major talking point, of the Audi SQ5 TDI is its unusual engine sound.

The secret is a sound actuator that operates through a set of speakers located beneath the vehicle as part of the exhaust system which work in conjunction with the engine management system. Even though it’s largely artificial, and so not to all tastes, we love it especially as it comes from the exhaust

pipes rather than being piped into the car as is the case with similar systems.

Out on the motorway the big Audi is a smooth, quiet and comfortable cruiser.

Cornering is about as precise as you can get from an SUV body with the quattro AWD system able to send up to 85 per cent of torque to the rear wheels.

SUMMING UP Audi SQ5 is an excellent allrounder, equally at home around town, on the motorway or out in the countryside. With its rare diesel/electric powertrain it combines great looks with practicality, sportiness and fuel efficiency.
