After some time without electricity at the studio and the festive time of the year, ZA Car Show returned for the penultimate episode of 2009. The team is joined by a representative, Carmen Du Preez from Rager, a mobile phone-based traffic management system; Carmen helps shed some light on how this system works and why its important to register.  We also discuss South Africa’s Car of The Year and some new, but pointless models from Mercedes and VW.

Episode 52 mean that we have officially passed one year of podcasting. Truth be told we’ve been at it a little longer and have actually put out around 57 episodes including out Johannesburg International Motor Show special editions and race meet outside broadcast. It’s not always been as smooth as Trevor Tuck’s lines through ‘Potters’ at the East London Grand Prix Circuit, but it has, for the most, part been as fun.   We’ve helped you choose cars, challenge opinions and hopefully give you more insight than Honda in the last year.

This week is no different, while lean on news from both local and international shores, is still filled with humour and opinion thanks to the ZA Car Show Challenge to purchase a car for R350 000. Without discussing it beforehand we’ve still managed to be more inconsistent than Jenson Button’s winning streak.
