CarAdvice podcast 146: Race the NSW Highway Patrol… legally!

PLUS: Sonata details, modifying a Landcruiser, guess the exhaust hint, and Peugeot 3008 owner review.


Joining Mandy Turner this week are Paul Maric and James Wong.

In car news, the next-generation BMW 1 Series has been previewed, Toyota Australia has confirmed three hybrid launches before the end of the year, and the Ford Ranger is getting AEB across the range.

Also, initial details have been released for the 2020 Hyundai Sonata, and the 2019 Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan has been revealed.

We speak to Sam Purcell about the modifications that have been done to our CarAdvice-owned 2019 Toyota Landcruiser 79 Series dual cab GXL.

We chat to Steven Planinic who is an amateur racer on the weekend, and an NSW Police Highway Patrol officer during the week. He's organised an event called Beat the Blue, where you can race your car against police cars.

Guess the exhaust wasn't correctly guessed, so we give out a hint this week for your chance to win a CarAdvice prize pack.

Lastly, Lachlan talks about his 2018 Peugeot 3008 Allure owner review, which he has written to enter the CarAdvice Community Approved Tester Program.
