Australia finally emerged from COVID-mania this year, but it also received a new prime minister, a new Toyota LandCruiser and a new wave of Aussies flocking to the bush.
These were among a host of hot topics we covered in 2022, but here, for the record, are the first most read features published by carsales this year.
1. Five Australian Prime Ministerial cars through history
From the opening of the first Commonwealth Parliament in Melbourne on May 9, 1901 to beyond the cessation of Australian auto manufacturing in 2017, Aussie PMs have travelled in a diverse range of highly prized vehicles. Here we listed their key conveyances.
2. Seven iconic cars from the Stranger Things universe
Netflix’s Stranger Things is best known for being a bingeable homage to the 1980s – a fun and frightening summer vacation that never has to end. The sci-fi thriller series isn’t just known for being a movie nerd’s heaven though; it’s also a vintage car lover’s dream come true. Here we listed seven of the most iconic cars from the Stranger Things universe.
3. Is the hype over the new Toyota LandCruiser justified?
A new Toyota LandCruiser comes around only once a decade or so, and when the latest 300 Series was released amid supply shortages in October 2021 it generated more interest than almost any other model and led to year-long wait lists. After countless news stories, a prototype drive and a series of launch, tow, off-road and comparison reviews, we drove one from Sydney to Byron Bay and back to ascertain whether the new ’Cruiser lives up to all that hype.
4. Five campervans you can buy on carsales to get you set for vanlife
Coming in at fourth on the list of most read feature articles in 2022 was another Carpool article published way back in September 2020 – amid pandemic lockdowns that drove an unprecedented rush for adventure machines in which to escape the city – covering five types of campervans available for sale at carsales.
