Brownie points earned with the missus when he said it was the cheapskate version of the Audi R8 - ahem ...lets not look too closely at the bill file and spoil that impression :nono:

I managed to stay awake long enough to see the Corrado. Started to nod off at the Citroen though. They don't seem to realise there is a reason Top Gear would rather blow something up than review it.

 

And that bloke made that loop! WTF? What's entertaining about that? He wasn't even towing a flaming caravan or anything.

did anyone sky+ it and can share?

 

is it worth watching?

Would be nice if Top gear or 5th gear done a part on the other Rado versions, as They all have their pros and cons, maybe compair them all. :shrug:

Rather stupid review of the Rado:

 

¨Some of the body panels come from Karmann ...¨ WTF? The whole car was built by Karmann!!! :brickwall:

 

Must be the rare Karmann interior.

 

Shame only the VR6 got a mention (again).

Was great to see the Corrado on the box, It looks very tidy james :notworthy: and I'm sure that one is worth more than £3000

That's typical I suppose.

Not seen yours in Coventry either :eek: Hardly take mine out, TBH, although took my Mk2 Storm out for a good spin last night, but tend to leave Coventry and its diabolical quality roads (or is it my stiff suspension :lol: ) asap.

There might have been a couple of inaccuracies but in general I thought it was a great piece. It was awesome to see a Rado on a modern show and it looked like a great example.

 

I think it's awesome for the car in general to have that exposure, fantastic stuff!

good stuff, car looked great, shame it sounded like a bag of nails in that studio though :eek: .......I'm sure it doesnt sound like that in the flesh.

Probably a combination of their microphone and TV speakers. Listen to any VR6 on youtube and they all sound the same, thin and clattery.

 

They shouldn't list any faults at all imo, cause journalists always get it wrong.

 

All they've done is left viewers with an impression that an £1800 bill awaits a new VR6 owner and £500+VAT if someone knocks the rear bumper.
