Good morning to all and in these Corona Virus times please stay safe. I get feeds from online auto companies from all over the world, and try to provide information to you as I can. This one from autoweek.com got my attention. I’m not trying to expand too much on
As far as I can determine, the social distancing protocols introduced by the National Cabinet seems to be working effectively. Social Distancing is a nuincance, but socially responsible. My mum, who’s 90 resides in an aged car facility in Scarborough and the staff at Ballycara are doing a wonderful job

It’s that time of year when I’m checking the figures I’ve been paying for various things such as car insurance, power prices, telephone and internet costs. This article is about life insurance. I listen to 1116 (4BC) when I’m driving around during the day. I’ve heard a lot of life

Hello and welcome to my new website thecarguy.com.au!
I know that there’s a lot of websites that offer car reviews, car road tests, opinions on various cars and the like. What makes this site different is that I’m not going to bore you with technical information about the various cars that I review.
I’ve been in the car business for over 39 years. I’ve read the motoring magazines cover to cover. I’ve read the online reviews until my eyes were square. Everywhere that I go, I find motoring journalists talking about car speeds – 0 – 100 km per hour, standing ¼ times, the inclination of this and that at 150klm per hour on a 12.5% gradient curve, in rainy weather – and other stuff that bores me no end.
thecarguy.com.au is taking a different path on the journey to helping you purchase a new car. I’ll do my best to advise you on what I consider to be the most important information when it comes to that major decision to purchase a car. Interior room, features of the car, fuel economy, safety, service prices, resale and lots more. I’ll tell you what I like about a particular car and as importantly, what I don’t like, to find at least to be less than I think a car should have. .
And I’ll ask for your opinion. Take some pics of what you’re driving and tell me and our audience what you particularly like or dislike about your car. Because besides prospective new car buyers, there’s a lot of people who’ll read your comments as used car buyers.
So, jump on board, strap yourself in and let’s start out on the journey with The Car Guy.
