Episode 232 - Best 4WD adventures!

In this episode, James Cleary, Malcolm Flynn and Dave Morley talk all things motoring, including:

The best 4WD adventures. So many SUV sales are influened by the thought that one day you'll take it out off the beaten track. But what are some of the best tracks? And how hardcore does your 4WD need to be to conquer them? This week the guys talk about their best off roading adventures from across the world, from the Silk Road to Stockton Beach.
The fresh metal we've been driving this week: the Toyota 76 LandCruiser Wagon, Volkswagen Amarok Walkinshaw V6, and... a Mazda 2?

You can get in touch with us on Facebook, Twitter (#CGPodcast) and Instagram, and let us know what your best 4WD adventure was 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.
