dirtytorque 0 Posted December 21, 2009 I'd love to ask Jeremy now if he really does still think the lude is better looking than the Corrado. C'mon now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Dude 0 Posted December 22, 2009 You can always trust Tiff to abuse any car he drives, the guy is a tool. tuff noodles does like to thrash the cars, but at least you know that he will take it to the limit and then give you an honest opinion, unlike clarkson who would describe the handling as "a weasel being greased with jam" or something equally daft and uninformative. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bullfinch 0 Posted December 22, 2009 I've seen the Tiff vid before but not the Probe versus Calibra/Corrado/Prelude. Some good Clarkson lines about the Corrado being a £20k Ferrari and having the same kick as an expresso shot. Now if someone can uncover the Top Gear vid where they sent the last Corrado back to the VW Museum in Wolfsburg that would make my Xmas :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaded2882 0 Posted December 22, 2009 I never knew that about the rev limiter being that low. I'm guessing chipping it stops that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tempest 0 Posted December 22, 2009 Quite enjoyable to finally see a proper car review again, even Clarkson appeals :shock: compared to his current style. Best of all in Tiff´s clip, of course the Rado parking next to the Mk1 Rocco, oh and the gorgeous G60 whine :luvlove: Tempest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mimjed 0 Posted December 24, 2009 I never knew that about the rev limiter being that low. I'm guessing chipping it stops that? yeah normally comes as part of the chip. think the sns stage 5 puts the limiter at 11,000 rpm as apparently the back pressure from hitting it can make it go bang. the 'modern classic' top gear one should keep the vr crew smiling though.

I only caught 60ish up to about 25 then the episode finished, not sure when the next one is (may have already gone). Any idea if the Corrado was in that? They had some right mediocre stuff like Honda Civic at about 40 :cuckoo: Plenty of footage of quirky classics like quattro, cossie and 300zx though :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jam.e.s 0 Posted December 24, 2009 Clarkson had the Corrado as 67th in his top 100 cars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wullie 1 Posted December 24, 2009 Watched Tiff throw the Corrado around and thought. "I thought I was near the limit, but shiiit" Need to find some wide open space to see how it does after all these (and mine) years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
