Episode 181 - The utes we want but can't have

In this episode, James Cleary, Richard Berry and Tom White gather in cyberspace to talk about all things motoring, including:

Australia invented the ute but sadly, despite this, there are plenty of newcomers we're denied. We go through a list of utes we'd love to see here but probably never will.
The fresh metal we've been driving this week: The Amarok W580, BMW M3 Competition, and Richard gives us a preview of a family-sized comparison test.
Plus MuskWatch: This week, Elon crowd-sources comedy, lets us in on some artistic preferences, and the share price continues to fall.

You can get in touch with us on Facebook, Twitter (#CGPodcast) and Instagram, and let us know which of these utes you'd love to see land in Australia by emailing comments@carsguide.com.au

You can subscribe to the CarsGuide podcast on iTunes, find us on TuneIn, Stitcher, Spotify, Pocket Casts, Whooshkaa, and, naturally, the CarsGuide website.
