[Ibsyj 0]

Sorry if this has already been asked but i searched 4 it and it came out with 3018 results. Anyway, i know that top gear did a review on the VR6 last year or so, and I actually found a link to watch it. However it always freezes in the 1st few seconds, so does anyone no where i wud b able 2 c it?

 

thx

Andi has it up on his fastpurple site - http://fastpurple.co.uk/corrado/vids/

 

If that doesn't work then it's also up on the Corrado Club of Canada site

Probably the best thing I ever contributed to the forum, getting that video captured & encoded!

I've taped the "Deals on Wheels" feature on the Corrado VR6 (Again) :)

 

Anyone fancy encoding it for me and hosting it?

I don't remember that bit either. However, about all I do remember is the bit about it being "proper quick."

[MikeVR6 0]

Jim, have you still got the original copy I sent you? :D

[warcraft 0]

just watched it again.

 

quotes include

 

it's really rather special

 

the result is fantastic

 

it's quick, like properly quick

 

it sounds fantastic

 

it's the only 90's coupe that isn't completely embarrasing

 

the only negative in the entire review is that they state it didnt sell well.

 

 

 

whats the deals on wheels one like, cos i havent seen that

[dinkus 10]

Yeah, I think you mean the bit where he says

 

It was a complete flop

 

But this, my funky little friend is a good thing, because they're not common as much like the TT ;)

its of a "dodgy" history'ied(more miles than showing and slightly older than advertised) K-plate VR6 in blue or black with sexy black leather recaro's too...............i think someone on the forum also knows the guy that went to view it on the programme. and they use a quite tidy "minted" green storm to show what to look for.........its quite a decent write-up on the C and both the presenters(mike brewer and the thin posh dude) like them

There's two deals on wheels corrado clips, the one mentioned above lovely lookin recaro equipped k reg and theres also a small clip at the end of one episode where they like do a quick review in about the last min of the show.

Was i drunk, or do I remember the top gear Corrado belonging to someone on here?

Seem to remember someone noticed it was missing a front windscreen wiper?

 

Maybe i dreamt it :roll:

Yeh soz, that's what i meant, when he says it was a flop. I kno he aint sayin its crap but it is a negative.

nah that fact that is was too expensive (a flop) makes it more exclusive so its a positive 8)

[Nick_Micouris 0]

Louie Lungbubble, the car is mine. It was without one wiper at the time. :oops: I had just changed over to the lupo wipers and some swine nicked one :evil: and I had to wait ages before VW got another in stock.

More noticeable in the pics that I have in my signature which were taken when they took her.

Would definitely like to see the deals on wheels clip!

[MikeVR6 0]

See Jim, everyone's interested in the Deals on Wheels clip.

Get it posted up! :)

Anyone just get sound only for the Top Gear clip?

[MikeVR6 0]

You probably need the correct codec to view that type of file.
