Hello and welcome to Overdrive, a program that dabbles in the realms of motoring and transport
This sound file is a full program. Other segments of the program such as the road test are also on the web site.
in this program we have the latest news including:
• Mitsubishi receives top honour for new car customer satisfaction
• Electric vehicles show poor resale value and
• Coca-Cola and Ford Team up To Turn Recyclable Plastic Bottles Into Car Seat Fabric
We chat to Chris Boribon from Shannons Auctions about whether some Ford performance vehicles may become collectable now that Ford is ceasing to build the Falcon
We road test the Holden Trax – When is a SUV not a four wheel drive.?
And in our panel discussion with Errol Smith and Brian Smith we look at a new use for traffic cones and ponder the stupidity of setting a new record for driving across America.
Now Overdrive is happy to say that at the recent Community Broadcasting Association of Australia National conference, when a group of delegates were asked what was their favourite program that is broadcast over the Community Radio Network Satellite to stations around Australia, Overdrive was one of the programs nominated.
So let’s get the program going first the news.
