Author: Paul Maric and Gordie Waters August 13, 2024 Duration: 37:48
Sorry about the long break! Gordie has finally started returning Paul's phone calls after the 'incident'. On this show we talk about the huge invasion of Chinese cars coming to Australia and what you can expect, Gordie tries to sell his Outback and is shocked by the value and we also talk about the raft of cars you'll find in Thailand that you don't get in Australia.

Forget the polished studio sets and scripted banter. The Driver's Show is a conversation that happens in the garage, fueled by genuine obsession and a deep well of knowledge. Hosts Paul Maric and Gordie Waters bring a unique dynamic to the automotive world. Paul, a respected expert and co-founder of CarExpert.com.au, offers the technical depth and industry insight, while Gordie’s background as a fast-talking radio host injects energy and relatable curiosity. Together, they strip away the usual schtick and marketing speak that often surrounds car culture. What you’ll hear is an unfiltered, often humorous, and always passionate discussion about anything on four wheels. Each episode feels like eavesdropping on two friends who happen to know everything about engines, design, and driving thrill. They dive into the latest models, dissect industry news, and share stories from the road, all with an authenticity that’s rare to find. This podcast is built for anyone who lights up at the sound of a great exhaust note or loves the debate over classic versus modern engineering. It’s less of a formal review and more of a shared discovery, reminding listeners why they fell in love with cars in the first place. Tune in for the unvarnished opinions, the deep dives, and the sheer joy of the topic.
