Episodes

EP22 Bites: Who made the Dixi? 23.11.2020

Sam's hosting the quiz this week, but thankfully they aren't his questions. Play along and see if you can beat us! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP22 Bites: World's fastest organ donor 22.11.2020

This week Sam reveals how he escaped disaster at the Jack's Ridge rally, David discusses the new Great Wall Cannon that he's been driving, and Andrew talks about the kidney that made it across Italy in two hours thanks to Lamborghini power. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP22: Finding a used EV for $30K 19.11.2020

This week on Zooming with DRIVEN we're talking about electric cars and performance sedans. But like always, we're bound by budgets for both picks, so Sam's beloved C63 is out of the question, and Dean can't get his speedy Tesla. Dean has stepped back from hosting Rotten Carmatoes this week, and Sam takes the stage to host a quiz with car trivia cars. Unsurprisingly, Andrew doesn't win, and David g...

EP21 Bites: Which Jaguar is best? 17.11.2020

This week for Expert Car Picks, we take a look at Jaguar's current line-up, and pick out our favourites. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP21 Bites: Finding $15K of fast 17.11.2020

We attempt to find the fastest car on DRIVEN.co.nz for under $15,000. As usual, David picks something Japanese, Dean goes with a speedster of yesteryear, and Andy's pick is roasted by everyone. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP21 Bites: Rotten Carmatoes 17.11.2020

Dean hosts his favourite car-related movie quiz, and you'd be surprised who takes the win this week. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP21 Bites: When are we getting the Corvette? 17.11.2020

GMSV has officially launched on both sides of the Tasman, but we're going to have to wait a little while until the highly-anticipated C8 Corvette lands. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP21: Fast Cars for $15K 13.11.2020

Despite not being in the studio this week, all the classic segments are still thrown in, including the news, Dean's favourite 'Rotten Carmatoes' game, the 30 Second Sell, and Expert Car Picks. Also, don't forget to vote for our favourite Jaguar option from our Expert Car Picks at DRIVEN.co.nz. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP20: We learn to drive! 05.11.2020

Well not exactly, Andrew heads along to Downforce's Young Driver Level One course, and picks up a few valuable skills. David's out and about driving everything from Isuzu's new D-Max ute to the highly-anticipated Toyota GR Yaris. We discuss the results from NZ's favourite compact car, and David hosts a quiz with the inevitable 'Ronin' question. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP20 Bites: Fiesta ST the king of tiny? 05.11.2020

The results are in, and it looks like Ford's little boosted Fiesta ST is the king of the compact segment, at least in our voter's eyes. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP20 Bites: BMW's first AWD M car? 05.11.2020

David's question-filled quiz is back, and unlike Andrew's questionable quiz, the questions actually make sense. Test your knowledge on old Bond cars, BMW M cars, and of course, the token Ronin question. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP20 Bites: Finding NZ's safest ute 05.11.2020

It's been a busy week in the DRIVEN office, with vehicle launches back in full swing. David has driven Isuzu's new D-Max ute which is no officially New Zealand's safest ute. Other real-world highlights include driving Toyota's highly-anticipated GR Yaris, and the new Supra with extra power. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP19: Finding NZ's best compact car 29.10.2020

This week David is down at the launch of Isuzu's new D-Max ute, so it's just Dean, Sam, and Andrew. We discuss Lewis Hamilton's F1 success, and a strange new Chinese EV that we've got in the garage. Dean's Rotten Carmatoes movie quiz is back by popular demand, and uncovers a surprising winner. All this plus more in this week's episode of Zooming with DRIVEN See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy...

EP19 Bites: Is AMG's C63 the best V8? 28.10.2020

We've got the results back from last week's Expert Car Picks poll, and it turns out that we were wrong when it comes to V8s. Do you agree with the people's choice? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP19 Bites: Rotten CARmatoes 28.10.2020

Dean's back with another instalment of everyone's favourite car-based movie quiz. Can Sam or Andrew take the title off David? Or will Linklater take home yet another win? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP19 Bites: Hamilton the king of F1? 28.10.2020

Lewis Hamilton has now eclipsed Michael Schumacher with 92 F1 Grand Prix wins. Does this make him the best driver to ever do it? We also cover Isuzu's new D-Max, and an odd Chinese electric SUV that we've got in the garage this week. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP18: A record-breaking Tuatara? 23.10.2020

What a week in the motoring world it has been! SSC set a new production car speed record with something named after New Zealand's slowest reptile, Ford announced yet another off-road Ranger, and the world's first victory lap at Bathurst! All this news plus DRIVEN's boss Tash joins us in studio to present a quiz, in which it's fair to say that we all bombed - we've got some serious homework ahead o...

EP18 Bites: What's NZ's best V8? 23.10.2020

From SUVs to muscle cars, modern-day V8 pickings are slim, but here are the ones that we'd buy without a budget in mind. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP18 Bites: Best $40K family car? 23.10.2020

In this week's 30 Second Sell, we attempt to convince Tash on a $40K family car, which was also the topic of our Buyer's Guide piece published earlier this week. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP18 Bites: The Safety Quiz 23.10.2020

This week DRIVEN's boss Tash joins us in studio to host the quiz. Will we get any questions correct? Or more importantly, do we still have our jobs? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP18 Bites: A fast Tuatara? 23.10.2020

What a week in the motoring world it has been! SSC set a new production car speed record with something named after New Zealand's slowest reptile, Ford announced yet another off-road Ranger, and the world's first victory lap at Bathurst! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP17 Bites: Best PHEV for $60K? 16.10.2020

Plug-in hybrids offer the best of both worlds between traditional petrol-powered cars and EVs. But which one is the best pick for $60,000? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP17 Bites: Rotten Carmatoes 16.10.2020

Dean hosts his favourite car movie game 'Rotten Carmartoes', and as usual the scores are confusing and the answers are questionable. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EP17 Bites: Is the V8 Dead? 16.10.2020

Sam gets upset about his beloved C63 losing its mighty V8 engine, and discovers that a few of the texts about the Audi RS4 he's selling weren't genuine inquiries. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
