*Sigh* one member of the team had his precious Alfa Romeo do what Alfa Romeos do best, and that was break down. Unfortunately, as a result, that member was also relieved of all his hardware by some generous motorists who decided to help. All we can say is “sorry for the delay.”
But we’re back on Episode 53 one week fresh from our anniversary and still pumping on all three cylinders. The fourth cylinder was too busy trying to sort out a sticky goo pudding situation, which left the other three to chat about the local motoring industry, the South African Motor Industry Development Programme and whether it will hurt South Africa’s standing in the global manufacturing world. We also found time to review the Honda Civic Diesel.

What an interesting week. At ZA Car Show we cater for everyone – how else are you supposed to make an informed purchasing decision? In one week the ZACS team experienced one of the most raw, fun cars complete with a 6.1 Litre V8 HEMI engine and at the same time the two entry level 1.6 litre four-pots from Renault; the Sandero and Logan.
The motor industry also celebrated a significant milestone, hybrid and electric vehicles and some Chinese investments.

The union of Autos has hit the ton.

Underrated, crazy power.

Underpowered, overrated.

We have a guest on our show this week. Its automotive photographer Waldo Swiegers who joins the team to talk about cars, and his take on automotive design and photography. We also get into the latest news from South Africa and the rest of the world, while Tuck manages to press everyone’s buttons again. The SA Car of the Year was announced – the Honda Accord – while we review the Audi S3 Sportback.
