A Roy Morgan Single Source survey has found that nearly 570,000 Australians plan to buy a new car in 2017, and 21 per cent of them say they "almost always" watch Twenty20 cricket on TV (compared with 16 per cent of all Australians aged 14+). The survey, which was carried out in the year to September 2016, also shows that these dedicated Twenty20 viewers have an average budget of $43,000 for their next car, compared with $38,500 among new car buyers overall. Meanwhile, compared to the average new car buyer in the market, Twenty20 fans are 28 per cent more likely to agree that they would like a car that handles like a racing car, 23 per cent are more likely to say they will only be buying a car that is fun to own, and 21 per cent are more likely to regard themselves as a car enthusiast.
