Indian tennis stars Mahesh Bhupathi and Sania Mirza became the first Indian pair to win a grand slam mixed doubles title at Australian Open 2009 sponsored by Kia Motors at Melbourne. For Bhupathi, Australian Open mixed double victory was his 11th grand slam title while Mirza celebrated her first success at this level. It’s been a bit of emotional rollercoaster for both Sania and Bhupathi.

Kia’s Association with Australian Open

The Australian Open’s prime sponsor, Kia, has been partnering with the Australian Open to help raise its brand awareness and provide added momentum to advance it into one of the leading global automotive brands. Since its first partnership with the Australian Open in 2002, Kia Motors is once again thrilled to come back to the Australian Open as the Major Sponsor in 2009. Meanwhile Kia Motors has reaffirmed its commitment to the Australian Open Championship for the next five years and is expected to play a key role to promote and support the players as they strut the “world’s biggest stage”.

With their success in Australian Open mixed double, Mahesh Bhupathi and Sania Mirza are once again hitting the headline for quite some times now and all the sports fraternity in India are just going crazy for them as they brought glory to India in the form of Australian Open gland slam. After the leading cricket players, these have become the most renowned celebrities in the country. And with this success, it is expected that tennis stars Sania Mirza and Mahesh Bhupathi would see a fresh line-up of endorsement in India, despite of the financial meltdown and slowdown in the global economy.

In addition to providing courtesy vehicles to the tennis stars, Kia Motors also displays its newest line up around the tennis courts and live sites to exhibit and promote the cutting edge technology and state-of-the-art styling to international audiences.

Kia Motors Corporation, the prime sponsor of Australian Open, is the known Korean manufacturer of quality vehicles founded in 1944. The company produces more than 1.4 million vehicles a year in 14 manufacturing and assembly operations across eight countries which are then sold and serviced through a network of distributors and dealers covering 165 countries. Kia Motors, Korea’s second-largest auto manufacturer has sold over 1.26 million units globally last year. Kia considers sponsoring of sporting events as an important part of its marketing blitz this year to conquer internal auto-market at a time when most of the auto manufacturers are struggling to survive in this turmoil of recession. Currently Kia owns market shares of 2.1% in the U.S., 1.7% in Europe, 2.5% in China, and 27.3% in Korea.

In the overseas car markets, the company is planning to launch its new cars including Forte compact and Soul urban crossover vehicle. It also plans to introduce a compact sports coupe and a new SUV and grab a market share of 35% on the home turf this year. At present, the company is 39% owned by Hyundai but in near future, Kia Motors may witness a fruitful year in the Indian car market with the success enjoyed by Sania and Bhupathi.

Launched at the Australian International Motor Show, the 2009 Kia Cerato sported a stylish European design as the “new face of Kia”. It is scheduled to be released in the market on the early part of 2009. The new automobile features a catchy H-grilled design by Peter Schreyer, he is currently Kia’s global chief design officer. Schreyer was also a former designer from the Volkswagen group.

According to the renowned designer, a car’s design is the primary purchase influence among buyers. This philosophy is echoed throughout the 2009 Kia Cerato from its exteriors, interiors, to the little design details that make the Cerato stand out from its class. Indeed, the new model is certainly an eye-catcher with subtle hints of sportiness and aggression. The H-grilled design will also subsequently be featured in new Kia models in the hope that it will increase the company’s brand value.

The 2009 Kia Cerato will be the first mass produced Kia car that represents Schreyer’s thinking and talent. But design is only part of the total equation in car manufacturing. Australian buyers (or customers from any other market) seek safety, quality, reliability, value, and affordability. This is where Kia’s highly efficient production facilities come in. The company aims to build cars in a smarter way with its effective use of quality materials and superb engineering.

Features and Cost-Effectiveness

The 2009 Kia Cerato bridges the gap between small and medium cars with performance, features, space, and value that Australian buyers want. The new automobile is designed for maximum efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Car buyers don’t need to pay more for a less-than-economical engine in a medium-sized car.

Featuring longer and wider dimensions compared to the current version in the market, the new 2009 Kia Cerato is more spacious. It provides comfortable interior settings for five passengers and a larger boot because of its longer wheelbase. In addition, it is even roomier compared to the first generation Toyota Camry in Australia. The elements integrated within the new Kia model makes it the perfect choice for modern buyers looking for a fuel-efficient car that reduces their ownership costs without compromising safety, quality, and reliability.

Its engine is vastly improved as well. The new and highly efficient 2.0-liter engine is equipped with Continuously Variable Valve Timing (CVVT). The company claims that this powertrain can deliver the pulling power of a 2.2-liter engine without the cost and consumption associated with it. This is certainly good news for individuals who want faster acceleration and smoother driving.

Though the final specifications of the 2009 Kia Cerato in the Australian market is yet to be determined, the new model will be covered by a 5-year/unlimited kilometers warranty for individual buyers or 5-year/130,000 kilometers warranty for fleet buyers. No matter its final specification though, it is undeniable that the 2009 Kia Cerato offers world-class design, excellent driving dynamics, and value for money. Without question, the new Kia model will become a hit in the Australian market because of all the features and capabilities provided above.

BMW – a reputation built on quality without compromise

 As an experienced driver, you know the importance of keeping your BMW in tip-top condition. Regular servicing will extend your car’s life and identify defects before they become catastrophic.

When you consider the history of BMW and how the Company has built its global reputation for prestige and performance excellence, booking a BMW service that is conducted with care and precision is vitally important in retaining the characteristics of this prestige car.

BMW facts you may not know

BMW has its roots in pre-First World War German aviation.

Gustav Otto, son of the inventor of the four-stroke internal combustion engine, set up an aircraft factory and training school in 1910. However, after persistent quality problems with production, his business was bought by a consortium in 1916. The company became known as Bayerische Flugzeugwerke AG (BFW) and began manufacturing aircraft under licence from Albatros Werke. It soon became the largest aircraft manufacturer in Bavaria, but at the end of the First World War demand collapsed.

Meanwhile, in 1913 an engine designer Karl Rapp had set up an aircraft engine manufacturing company, but vibration problems with their own engines meant that they switched production to Austro-Daimler V12 engines, under licence. A man called Franz Josef Popp was put in to supervise the manufacturing. He managed to persuade Karl Rapp to employ a talented design engineer from Daimler, Max Friz. Friz quickly designed a new engine and made such an impact with the investors, that Karl Rapp was ousted from the business in 1917. At this point the company name was changed from Rapp Motorenwerke GmbH to Bayerische Motorenwerke BmbH (BMW).

However, in December 1918, BMW was forced to close down by the government at the end of the First World War. However, in less than three months BMW was allowed to reopen and began designing a new array of engines, although the company was forced to cease aircraft engine production. At this point, an Austrian financier, Camillo Castiglioni, had become the majority shareholder in BMW.

In the summer of 1919, BMW began building brake assemblies under licence from Knorr-Bremse AG, and around a year later Castiglioni sold his shares in BMW to Knorr-Bremse.

Following the sale of his stake in BMW, Castiglioni became interested in purchasing BFW which he completed in 1922. On the back of this, he moved to purchase back the BMW name and engine building division from Knorr-Bremse. He was successful, and with the merger of BFW and BMW, under the BMW name, he also secured the design and management skills of Max Friz and Franz Josef Popp, plus valuable engine drawings and patents.

BMW began production of replacement engines, whilst Castiglioni did a lucrative deal with the Czechs to licence the production of BMW aircraft engines for use by their military.

During the 1920s, BMW supplied Russia with aircraft engines and Castiglioni, as well as being the majority shareholder, siphoned off a brokerage fee on every transaction to his ‘private’ companies.

Along with military engines, BMW began to successfully manufacture small agricultural engines and motorcycles, starting with the R 32 in 1923. These formed the basis of the project to design a BMW production car in 1925. Then in 1928 the company expanded into full car production with the purchase of the Eisenach Car Factory that made the Dixi (or Austin Seven manufactured under license). The car became known as the BMW 3/15 and it was not long before BMW was producing its own designs.

However, Castiglioni’s business dealings got himself and BMW into trouble. After selling a majority shareholding to Deutsche Bank in 1926, to raise personal funds, his irregular commission payments were duly revealed. He settled out of court with a large payment back to BMW and stepped down from the board. In 1929, he sold the remainder of his shared to Deutsche Bank to prop up his finances.

The Castiglioni affair had also cost BMW. The Russian government became aware of the ‘commission’ payments and demanded compensation. BMW handed over a licence to produce the BMW VI engine for free and relations with the Russians came to an end in the early 1930s.

After successful expansion of the motorcycle and car businesses in the 1930s, BMW was forced to abandon civilian production by the National Socialist Party during the Second World War and focus on the production of aircraft engines. This included the use of forced labour.

Towards the end of the war, BMW was hit hard by allied bombing and when the war ended, the sites in eastern Germany were seized by the Russians. Meanwhile, whilst BMW survived in the West, they were banned from manufacturing engines for three years and BMW car plans and their chief designer Fritz Fiedler were taken to England to begin Bristol Cars. And so it was not until 1948 that production of BMW motorcycles recommenced and not until 1952 that car production was started again.

The initial post-war car models, such as the 507 and 503, were not highly profitable and in 1959, BMW discussed selling the business to Daimler-Benz. This was an unpopular move with the workforce, and fortunately Chairman Kurt Golda increased his stake in the company to secure BMW’s independence.

During the 1960s the release of more sporty models spelt success for BMW. The BMW 1500 (that followed the BMW 700) led to the BMW 1600 and BMW 1800 models and in 1967 two door and convertible models that became known as the BMW 02 series. These developments eventually led to the creation of the famous BMW 3 series.

The company expanded, with new production facilities and a new headquarters in Munich.

Going into the 1970s, the BMW 5 series replaced the sedans, the coupes were replaced with the BMW 3 series and a new BMW 7 series was launched, thereby giving BMW three distinct sports sedan ranges that continued into the 1990s.

BMW became a global brand in prestige car manufacturing and sales increased 18 times. Production expanded from Germany and has spread to across continents, including facilities in the UK, America, South Africa and India. The company has also formed partnerships over time with Russian and Chinese producers.

In the mid 1990s, BMW bought Rover from British Aerospace. However, the company struggled to find a role for the English brands and make a profit. In 2000 it disposed of Rover to Phoenix Venture Holdings and sold the Land Rover brand to Ford. However, BMW retained the Mini, Triumph and other brands. BMW has since successfully rekindled the Mini brand and also gone on to secure full use of the Rolls Royce brand (in 2003).

From its humble origins as pre-First World War makers of aircraft and aircraft engines, BMW has survived as a result of post-war entrepreneurial spirit and grown rapidly to become a major global player in the prestige car market.

A simple but vital component of your car that needs to checked every time you get your Toyota serviced or tuned up, is the fuel filter. The Toyota fuel filter has a very important job: to make sure that the fuel that reaches your engine does not contain any particles that could clog the engine. The Toyota alternator is another important component that charges your Toyota’s battery when the car’s running.

If there’s anything wrong with these two components, the car will not run. Without the Toyota alternator the car battery will discharge after a little while and the car will refuse to start. Similarly, if the Toyota fuel filter gets clogged the fuel will not reach the engine, and the car will refuse to run.

Luckily, these two parts are very low maintenance and if you keep your car services on schedule, you will not face any trouble. The Toyota fuel filter is a spare that needs to be replaced regularly. In fact the service guy probably replaces it every time you get your car serviced. The Toyota alternator on the other hand will go on working for years without a problem.

Although the service center charges a pretty hefty fee for it, replacing the Toyota fuel filter is not a difficult job for those who’re have some inclination towards learning car maintenance and repairs. In fact you will even find how to videos on the Internet that will show you how to replace the fuel filter yourself. Once you’ve mastered this skill, you’ll never be stranded due to a clogged fuel filter, and you’ll always know when to get your Toyota fuel filter replaced.

Maintaining the alternator unfortunately, is not so trivial. You can get to it pretty easily and also check if it’s generating a current for the battery or not, but if there’s something wrong with, it will be very difficult to repair it. Toyota alternator is not very cheap either, so if your alternator stops working, you’ll need to shell out a lot of cash.

One thing you must remember is that the Toyota alternator does not stop working very often. If you battery light on your car console is on, that means the batteries are not getting charged, but the trouble usually is not with the alternator but with the alternator belt. The alternator belt is responsible to turn the small turbine that generates the current in the Toyota alternator. Sometimes it breaks due to wear-and-tear and the current stops flowing. In this case all you need is a new alternator belt.

Usually buying the spare parts, be it a Toyota fuel filter or a Toyota alternator from the repair center is pretty expensive as those guys will sell it to you at a marked up price. You’ll get a better deal with a replacement parts stockist. So consider looking for the part on the Internet and finding out its price before you get it replaced. Ask your service guy what will be cost of just replacing the part if you got it yourself. You might be able to save a lot of money.
