ZA Car

Ahead of Paris, there’s a lot of new flange. Episode 92 is a packed show, with great news from Paris, South Africa and a shoot out between the Swift Sport and Twingo RS.

We tell you why the new Sportage is cooler than the Hyundai iX35, and discuss August’s excellent sales figures. And then we review the Audi A4 2.0T quattro and Mitsubishi Outlander.

For a company that struggles to achieve double digit sales figures the idea of launching an overpriced limited edition to celebrate its centenary looks like a gunshot to its own foot. Limited editions should sell out and to be honest, Mr General Public has lost confidence in Alfa Romeo.

In this week’s podcast, the ZA Car team talks about some BMW M3s, some Renault stuff and a face lifted Mercedes Benz C-class. Then they argue over cars from 1987.

Based on the normal Clio 1.6, the S is aimed at giving aspirational RenaultSport owners something to tide them over until they can get their hands on the bonkers 2.0-litre 3-door hatch.
