vornwend 0 Posted June 8, 2009 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: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonicriot13 0 Posted June 8, 2009 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bunjiman 0 Posted June 8, 2009 my cousin just called to say they had a rado on and i should watch it - completely missed it and looks like there's no iplayer for 5 did anyone sky+ it and can share? is it worth watching? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pat_McCrotch 0 Posted June 8, 2009 Shame it wasn't a little longer like the Top Gear one a few years back but not bad. Really nice example :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swompy 0 Posted June 8, 2009 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: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted June 8, 2009 was that it? 3min worth :lol: and they should have left the engine off :gag: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
james28 0 Posted June 8, 2009 was that it? 3min worth :lol: and they should have left the engine off :gag: yes agree with the engine lol thats because it was in a very small studio still say they should of give it a test drive :) cannot complain the car has had some nice exposure Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 0 Posted June 8, 2009 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). Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruny 0 Posted June 8, 2009 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 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walesy 0 Posted June 9, 2009 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!

Danny B 0 Posted June 9, 2009 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted June 9, 2009 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. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
