I`m just watching a Tiff comparison between it & a silver GTV (J3GTV) on old Top Gear!




They are also doing used tests on the Testarossa, the Countache, as well as the Afa SZ (VRG666) & the RZ (N707JLU)!

According to AskMID and the DVLA, it's still taxed and insured...

what was the outcome of the program i havent seen that one, would be nice to know or put the good bits up on here to enjoy

Well its on video tape, so the best I can do is record it with a camera placed in front of the TV, then stick it on youtube (unless I`m gonna get done for copyright).

I`ll see how it comes out!

video wow you as old as me lol

Well this tape is circa 1999, but I`ve been going through all of my old tapes (aprox 500) which go back to around 1987!

The plan is to catalogue them, then transfer them all onto DVD via my DVD recorder... 500 tapes.... most 240`s... thats a couple of thousand hours of crap to wade through... and most havent got labels! :bang:

Hit man & Her? Top Gear with William Woodard, Chris Goffey & Sue Baker? The Word? James Whale? Chart Show? Programs about the classic Car speculators that were hit hard in the 1990 crash?

Got all that & many more!

There ya go!

Tell us about it. Typical motoring program / journalist complete lack of care for peoples pride and joys. They can just about get to drive and abuse any car they like and the manufacturers/importers will tolerate their actions as hopefully they will get sales.

They see/drive/play with 100s of manufacturer/importer/dealer cars at their whim.

When they get their hands on private cars many (not all) presenters seem to forget that they are now handling/dealing in the private, cherrished domain.

Our Strada Abarth has just about recovered from numerous and ever more enthusiastic/energetic door closures whilst being filmed for a TV motoring program. The fact the door never fell off would be a real selling point were the car still in production.

Nice one . Thanks..

Where did they find F*wit? and whats wrong with FWD?

We had a vintage glider out at the airfield and the journo's came out to do a documentary about it..one of them sat on the plastic canopy..you wouldn't believe what that cost the tv company to get it fixed..after they tried to deny liability.

Dipsticks!
