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 :)

Did anyone notice the 'Corrado' style spoiler on the Bentley COntinental last week?

 

 

well it is a big VW afterall :wink: :p :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!

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:

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
