14: T-Roc and Roll, ES90 and luxury on a budget

In this week's episode of the Hook Turn Podcast, we take a look at whether the crucial new Volkswagen T-Roc marks a return to (some) form in the hotly contested small SUV segment, and Sanbib decides whether he will swipe right on an upgrade from his current model.

We also take a look at Volvo's new flagship, the stunning new ES90, and how a lack of piano black might turn out to be a competitive advantage in the executive car space.

Finally, we take another punt at the Carsales challenge, and discover that you really can own a design classic for under $25k.
