It’s all about Formula 1 this week, with a smattering of news from the local scene. The team is joined by South African F1 Guru Sasha Martinengo, Absolute F1, Top Gear Live MPH presenter and 5FM DJ (@F1sasha – for the Twitter fans). He joins the team for the second time to discuss cars, the absurdity of the BMW 5-Series GT, a very old Ferrari and, of course, the 2010 Formula 1 Season.

BMW 5-Series Grand Turismo launched in SA this week.

While Patrick was out having his wisdom removed, the rest of the ZACS team complete the special tarmac stage of the latest in South African and international motor news. Quickly: In the news we say hello to four new models and good bye to another one, while Christo got to drive the Nissan GTR which left him more smitten than a Bulls fan at the Curry-Cup final.

Continuing to bring you news from the industry horses’ mouths, this week the team hosts Stanley Anderson, Marketing Director for Hyundai South Africa. In between correcting Trevor van de Ven on the pronunciation [Sunday, Monday...Hunday], Stanley gives the team insight into the new models, product plans and strategy that has assisted the brand move from just another cheaper Korean alternative to a serious sector contender in most cases.

We are not entirely convinced that manufacturers ever plan on a global unveiling anymore because it seems every new model is leaked well before the official launch. It’s no different this week with at least three new models revealing what lies beneath the duct tape and dustbin bags.

Have you ever considered an MPV? It might seem like a strange question, but one that is rarely anwered in motoring magazines. They have their place and we have out reviewer: Tuck – sometimes race car driver, sometimes race consultant, “just like Schumi.” All we know is that for an unmarried man with one kid he has an unusual fetich for MPVs. He reviews the Chrysler Voyager while the rest of the team  share their opinions on the motoring industry, new Hybrids, dodgy Italians and frisky Fords.

If pulling teeth was any fun, we would have done so in this episode of ZACS. Following a quiet week in local and global news, the team of Trevors, Christo and Patrick reflect on the ailing auto industry, which seems as dead as the sales volumes in South Africa. The guys, after some packed shows of late, also [finally] deliver reviews on two dramatically different cars which they had on test: the 2009 Ford Ikon 1.6 Ambiente and 2009 Jeep Cherokee Limited 3.7.
