ZA Car

What’s more gentlemanly than a game a game of cricket? Well the 250km/h speed limit on German cars and long forgotten commitment to limit horsepower to 280bhp in Japan, both of which are long forgotten by Lexus with its IS-F which we review. We also discuss BMW’s new 3-Series, Toyota’s Hybrid Lemans quest and move into the Twilight zone with the review of Volvo’s C30.

The crew went to the Jo’burg Motor Show, and report back on what’s hot and what’s not. Then they review the best 4x4xfar, and a slow, but safe, Opel.

We welcome Brent Ellis to the show this week and talk Johannesburg Motor Show, Audi RS3, Jaguar XF Diesel. We also review the Mercedes Benz C250 CDI Coupe that has Trevor weak at the knees and Suzuki Kizashi, a car much bigger than you think it is.

Patrick, Christo and John chat about their favourite cars from the 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show. Then they talk about a Volkswagen Passat that isn’t very exciting.

Saab dies, Trevor cries; Porsche rules, Christo drools; Frankfurt’s here, never fear because ZA Car Show 133 is what you want to hear. This week joined by Tom Falkiner from The Times, we review the Porsche Carrera 4S GTS and Polo GT-aiiight.
