When travelling around Turkey today -increasingly popular with Indian tourists as a scenic, historic and affordable paradise -it’s easy to hit up only the usual hotspots after going to Istanbul: the fairy chimneys of Cappadocia, the breathtaking travertines and healing waters of Pamukkale. Not everyone gets to spend time in Selcuk, a lovely Turkish town close to Ephesus, the more well-known site of spectacular ancient ruins and the House of Virgin Mary. Fortuitously, I chose to visit.

Early this year, Tourism Queensland ran a campaign titled ‘The Best Job in the World’. They were looking for a caretaker for the islands of the Great Barrier Reef – one of the most beautiful places in the world. The campaign received such a response that the official website crashed on the first day itself.

The night before I was supposed to slip behind the wheels of the all-new Audi Q5 (petrol), I read a rather unflattering report from Australia about the sports utility vehicle.
The Q5, that has been revamped with more muscle and off-roading capabilities, suffered a power steering failure after a 35-minute off-road test in Kangaroo land. I was sceptical about what extent to which I wanted to torture the car, but given the heavy rains in Delhi last Monday, there were no shortage of locations for a true-blue off-road test. So I figured that it’s an Audi and it’s German — so it should know how to rise to the occasion. And rise it did, with elan.
The arrival of the Fortuner in India has stirred up a frenzy like no other Toyota before it. It’s already received 2,000 confirmed bookings. But does the Fortuner live up to its perceived greatness? Has it really been worth the wait?
Stationed next to an Endeavour, the Fortuner is taller and more broad-shouldered. Its chest-level bonnet is a towering presence. The huge scoop on the bonnet that feeds air to the air-to-air intercooler, the skid plate that swoops into the bumper and the terrific-looking headlights which sync into the grille command respect.
