Jim 2 Posted November 16, 2003 Richard May (guy with the long hair) isn't that bad.. he does come out with some funny stuff sometimes. His article on the new Subary Legacy last week had me in stitches when he was taking the pi$$ out of the 'upper class'. I think they work together as a group pretty well :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6corrado 0 Posted November 16, 2003 Did anyone notice the 'Corrado' style spoiler on the Bentley COntinental last week? well it is a big VW afterall :wink: :lol: :lol: Yep :) Does it have the W12 engine? With twin turbos? 8) EDIT: And how does it get 275 bhp through the wheels??? He said something like it's just approaching its limit! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

g-master 0 Posted November 16, 2003 Yeah!!! that was mad :) do you really think it could handle all that power through the front wheels? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vmax 0 Posted November 16, 2003 Spoke to one of the researchers on Driven (the Channel 4 show in case you're wondering) about a year ago, apparently he was really keen on the Corrado VR6, so maybe there's hope yet for an article whenever the next series starts... TBH, I would have sold him mine had I won that Evo VII :evil: Jamie '93 Aqua blue VR6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted November 20, 2003 so is anyone gonna get the footage captured, and uploaded? I think it was Jim who was talking about doing it (well, his mate)? The articles gonna be short, but they usually fit alot into them, alot of background info etc. I can't stand the presenters when they are together, they come up with some good/scripted one liners when reviewing the cars, but when they get back to the studio its more wooden than Eastenders (and thats saying something), bring back Tiff and Quentin :D Thera Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
