[OFFER] Some new video's

[AlienDB7]

If you don't want to spoil it for us, just post it so we can see it with our very own eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D :D
I tried to upload the vcd version to the Video Vault but I've been having problem. Will try with IE later on.

[TT]

I will PM you FTP details dude ;)

[draak666]

Aaarrrggh, dammit. :x I thought I was gonna be able to download again today, but no. I'm at 98% of my capacity and you have to go belooww that. Damn. Sorry to keep you all waiting for Alien's new videos. I will download tomorow morning before leaving for work!

[Chingachgook]

The 360 spider review was very nice. It's nice to see Vicky and nice to hera the spider (same roads as Turbo Fr I think...). What to say about the 360? I prefere the F355 spider, but it's an incredible car. LOOOVE

[SamuraiGti]

I've never managed to open the page, always gives me error to open it =|

[fabro_s]

I cant see the page, it says url not found! :cry:

[TT]

Ok the AMS video is in the vault :D thanks Alien :D

[AlienDB7]

Ok the AMS video is in the vault :D thanks Alien :D
Thanks TT! For those without access to the vault, the DivX (slightly lower quality) version will be available soon...

In the mean time, I've uploaded a few other videos to zippo (http://users.pandora.be/cgt/)'s site:

Auto Motor und Sport - Seat Ibiza Cupra TDI.avi
It’s like a wolf in sheep’s clothing, the new Ibiza Cupra TDI. Powered by a 160 horsepower diesel engine, the little Spanish car sets new standards in the compact class in terms of driving dynamics and agility.

The close-spaced ratios of the 6-speed transmission and the firm tuning of the chassis make the Ibiza a fun car to drive. It only uses 5.4 liters of fuel to cover 100 kilometers and is quite affordable with a price tag of 20 thousand Euros in Germany.

Autovision - Jaguar XJ6.avi
The review is in french (from Belgium) so I'm not too sure what they're talking about. Some nice sideway action near the end though.. I love seeing jags going sideway so I had to cap it ;)

Motoring 2004 - Smart Car Crash Test.avi
Want to see what happens when you crash a Smart car into a mercedes?

Polizia Lambo Gallardo.mpg
A repost of the news clip as requested by robruf.

[mayer]

Thanks again for making these videos available to those of us who don't have access to the vault.

[X-ale]

^^ Yup! I'm glad I don't know where ya live and i'm not close to you or i'd have to hug you and that would feel weird + it would look gayish.

[draak666]

Thanks fo yo patience. By the way, the new name of my website is http://users.pandora.be/draak999 . :wink:

[TT]

Thanks draak, and note to Minchio (known as Minchio on sc.net)... DON'T POST THE DAMN URL ON SC.NET!

[AlienDB7]

Thanks draak for changing the url, hopefully the new one won't get posted on other forums for a while.

As promised, I've uploaded the Nardo AMS clip together with another Vicki Top Gear video to draak's webspace.

Auto Motor und Sport - Nardo High-Speed Track Test Part I.avi
An exclusive club with strict rules: No one below a speed of 300 kilometres per hour is admitted. Those admitted this time: the Aston Martin DB9, the Bentley Continental GT, the Mercedes SLR McLaren, the Lamborghini Murcielago, the Porsche Carrera GT and the Enzo Ferrari . Each member is out to prove it’s the fastest. The favorite: the Ferrari.At the high-speed track in Nardo, Italy the test candidates find exactly what they need. A 12.6 kilometre slightly banked track that allows drivers to speed around the circuit literally free of any lateral g forces.

Top Gear - Brands Hatch Day Out (Vicki).wmv
Another classic Top Gear clip with Vicki talking about track day at Brands Hatch. A must for Vicki fans!

[robruf]

Alien DB7, thanks alot for the repost of the Gallardo, it certainly does stand out as a police car and it really does look super good.

[bmagni]

[AlienDB7]

Just found out that there's a Part 3 of the Nardo comparison test! It'll include acceleration and handling tests.

[bmagni]

[dingo]

Thanks so much, and I feel the same as X-ale. :D

[Bilal786]

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE NARDO VIDEO, CANT WAIT FOR 2 AND 3!!!

[v0od0o]

A friend of mine was just tellin me he saw this episode of AMS this morning and that he had to wake up at 7:30 am (our time GMT+2) to watch it, and I had downloaded the vid from you and showed it to him, he was just in awe.
You have no idea how that felt :D
Thank you so much for taking the trouble to provide this service

[stradale]

Thanks a lot, guys! Downloading the first part of the Nardo feature as we speak. I read about this in the magazine, so I know the video of it must be great.

[yg60m]

Mates, i am soo thankfull for you to provide us these wonderfull videos :D
Very cool there will be a part 3 with accelerations :twisted:

[X-ale]

Wooooooo, there's a part 2... AND a part 3 :!: I won't do anything i promised. No hug nor any special request ya might have :mrgreen: Maybe you could ask dingo :wink:

[Stikz]

I'm sorry to bother you guys. All of you have been awesome in posting videos. But i can't seem to open this webpage

The really annoying thing about it is the way he brags about it in the other forum too, he didn't even have the courtesy to credit the original author.

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE NARDO VIDEO, CANT WAIT FOR 2 AND 3!!!

BUY YOUR F**KING WEBSPACE, DOWNLOAD ANY VIDEO, UPLOAD IT TO YOUR WEBSPACE AND SHARE IT ANYWERE WITH ANYONE YOU WANT!!! http://arman.xz.cz/smilees/1041677399.gif

Thanks a lot for the videos guys :D

I must confess i haven't visited this thread for a while because there are too many of the videos :P :wink:

I tried the old webspaces (which took me a while to find) and they didn't work, so.... i trawled through all 39 pages of the thread, and found the names had been changed, because of people posting outside of JW :roll:

And what a time to re-visit the thread 8) ... the Nardo video is amazing, and i cannot wait for parts 2 & 3 :P

Thanks for all the videos Alien, Draak and Zippo :D :D :D :D :D :D

[ARMAN]

Yea, thanx for all vids guys :wink:

v0od0o: too bad you cannot add some sound just like smilee :mrgreen:

[TT]

At the moment is he banned! And was contacted for explanations

Apparently it was just a mistake and he got a second chance, just to let you all know and avoid questions like "shouldn't Bilal be banned?" ;)

[5.7 V10]

Thx for the video's guys! The AMS Nardo part 1 test was great, can't wait for 2 & 3.

[AlienDB7]

Thanks for the support guys! I got a PM from Bilal786 about the incidence. Although it's not his first time posting zippo/draak's url on mbworld, we should give him a second chance ;)

For those of you who are planning on giving out the link to friends and other forums. Please upload the video to your own webspace. Like ARMAN said, it's okay to share as long as you're using your own webspace and bandwidth. This is essential for the survival of this thread. We can't afford to have people from every forum downloading from zippo and draak's webspaces. zippo already lost one of his webspaces, we don't want that to happen to the current one!

[nutsy]

we must be very quick to see your video nothing for me i stand for the future.
Thks for sharing this.

[DeonV]

Have been out of action for a month or so. I saw draak's change in address, what happened to zipper???

[TT]

He changed the addy because some dumbfuck posted the old one around the net...

[Mercedes5CLR]

Thank you so much of the great AMS Nardo part 1 test video. I enjoyed it alot and i cant wait to see Part 2 and 3. Thank you for posting it. :D 8)

[AlienDB7]

Since I probably won't be around much during the weekend, I've uploaded the Casino (reality show) Ferrari 550 vs. Caddy XLR race to zippo's webspace slightly ahead of schedule. Hope you guys didn't miss any video.

[yg60m]

Thank you Alien :D
:oops: And what about the Nardo speed test part 2 and 3 ?

[AlienDB7]

Thank you Alien :D

BTW, the video of the 550 vs XLR was nice :)

[itsthepham]

Cant wait for the next nardo part 2 and 3. :D

[dingo]

I was just watching AMS (english version) on TV and they had a review of the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti, which was great and I recorded it.
AlienDB7, has this been on where you record them or is this new since here in Oz mosts shows are late.
I have it on VHS tape but I'm unsure how I can upload it if it is new and of interest to other members.

[martin100]

I think Alien already posted the 612 review a while ago. Not sure though... :roll:

[DeonV]

He changed the addy because some dumbfuck posted the old one around the net...

:( ; I have found the new new draak site, but the other the pandora.../csl/ one went down first. What did he replace it with ?

[TT]

Hehe, it was changed too, not long ago. it's now more like /cgt

[DeonV]

TT, thanx man.

[dons5]

where is this 550 video? zippos webspace?? i cant find the link

[dingo]

I think its draaks webspace, i.e. /cgt like TT mentioned. I didn't like the video that much, but hey its still a Ferrari.

Another 3 good features on todays AMS-TV for you to capture:

1. Fuore Black Jag: A feature about the Jaguar supercar prototype.
2. Brabus SLK K4: Only 192hp but looks great in silver.
3. Fort Mustang History: Nice feature about the Ford Mustang. Also features the chase scenes from Bullit and offers footage of the 2005 Ford Mustang GTR.

For next week a Audi RS6 plus review is announced :twisted:

[DeonV]

I was able to change both draak & zippo urls in my fav dropdown and they work fine. The pandora server is still way faster than racingflix, no doubt. I d/loaded at almost twice the speed than at racingflix.

Well its midnight in Johannesburg now, and Im going to bed. I have a project which needs to be completed by Friday coming. And in this country we ain't late with our code, its like working in the firing line and you're dodging the whole freakin time.

Chat to you guys next weekend.

Racingflix limits it's download for no-paying members to 5kbps.... most other websites host for much higher speeds. EG - The Video Vault at JW will allow a 400kbps download (if your connection allows it :wink: )

Yea, I've seen the jag prototype listed on the VOX AMS site. Looks very interesting, will keep an eye on that. Hopefully it'll be on the english version.

The VCD cap of the Nardo Speed-test part 2 is being uploaded to the vault, so it should available soon (*hint* TT :wink:). The DivX version and other AMS clips will be available soon, they're being encoded at the moment.

From the preview clips of next week's episode, looks like Part 3 of Nardo test will be very interesting.

Don´t expect to much from the Black Jag feature since there are NO driving scenes at all. Just the history of it and some looks inside are shown.

3 new videos have been uploaded to zippo's (http://users.pandora.be/cgt/) and draak's (http://users.pandora.be/draak999/) webspaces:

Auto Motor und Sport - Nardo High-Speed Track Test Part 2.avi
The Aston Martin DB9, the Bentley Continental GT, the Mercedes SLR McLaren, the Lamborghini Murcielago, the Porsche Carrera GT and the Enzo Ferrari take part in night-time speed trials around the high-speed track in Nardo, Italy. At night the temperatures are more stable for comparison. The victor records a speed of 355 kmh. Find out who that is in this report.

Auto Motor und Sport - Jaguar XKR.mpg
Breathtaking acceleration. Handling, precision and road-holding that defy the laws of physics. This is part of the marketing text for Jaguar’s new XKR convertible. More than nice-sounding advertising slogans reveal the true facts. 5.6 seconds go by and the convertible sprints from rest to 100. Its 4.2 liter V8 supercharged engine produces 395 horsepower. Whether that’s enough to take one’s breath away, find out in this report.

Thanks Alien!

Thanks Guys, saw part one on DW TV, it was awesome. Dont get DW where I am at the moment. Thanks so much for making it possible for me. Though am on mobile phone, downloading at speeds of 7kbps, but WTF, I'll keep it on whole night. Cant miss this now, can I. Hopefully be back in time, for 3. I hope they show the Lap battle between all these cars, that they did. :lol:

[itsthepham]

Nardo part 2 is very nice indeed. ferrari enzo reaching 220. insane!!! :shock: cant wait for part 3. thanks a bunch!!!

[bmagni]

thnx, thats incredible, but i still dont think of the SLR as a GT. McLaren making a GT doesnt make sense to me

[chipanggo]

yipee! thanks alien! downloading the nardo test right now. just can't wait to see it! :D

[szumszer]

excellent, thanks, enzo is a beast ... well xj220 like beast in top speed, but still 220 is a lot and its bound to outpace xj220 in every other way, thanks again

[chipanggo]

now i've seen it. the enzo is an absolute monster! wow! :)

again, thanks alien! :D

[robruf]

Those guys are crazy to drive that fast at night, why doesn't the track have lights for night time testing. Have to give it to the Enzo, as it did exactly what it set out to do, the Carrera GT was a beast as well, cannot wait until part 3.

[Mercedes5CLR]

Thanks for Posting Video 2 cant wait till 3!!! :D 8)

[quattrodude]

Oeh can't wait for the RS6 PLUS review! Next nardo part will also be super as I you can see at the preview!

great stuff guys! Keep up the good work

[dingo]

Thanks guys, that was a great video.....it'll probably be on TV in a few eeks here but I couldn't wait.

[Stikz]

Thanks for the videos guys. I think i speak for everyone when i say that what you guys are doing is just phenomenal. Thank you for the effort.

[AlienDB7]

Just uploaded a new video to zippo's webspace:
Daily Planet - Science of Stunt Driving.avi

Nothing special, just something I came across on Discovery channel.

Saw the Nardo test part 3 the other day, all I can say is, it's way too short! There're some other interesting features in the AMS episodes too. No, I won't have the cap til this weekend ;)

[dingo]

^ I just watched part 3 today and I have to agree it could be a little longer, but its still great viewing. :D

[ray_7]

Is it still possible to download previous videos that have been uploaded to draak's and zippo's page?

I just access the internet after quite a while now and realized that I have missed lots and lots of good videos...esp. the Nardo test part 1...

Due to limited disk space and bandwidth, there is no official archive of the videos. So you really have to look around for them. As for the nardo test part 1, you can find it in the video vault. But since you're a new member, you probably have to wait ;)

Yesterday another great AMS-TV episode:
1. Audi RS6 Plus: Great review with great sound aswell...
2. New Porsche GT2: The car and it´s sound is simply insane :shock:

Yesterday another great AMS-TV episode:

it had some nice drifting sequences in it.... :P , this car is just amazing..

^_^

[AlienDB7]

I'll do what I can do get the GT2 video, can't promise though. Never know what they put on the DW version of AMS. Are they showing the uncut version of each feature?

Anyhow, part 3 of the Nardo test is here! Together with other AMS clips, they're uploaded to draak (http://users.pandora.be/draak999/)'s and zippo (http://users.pandora.be/cgt/)'s webspaces. A higher quality (VCD) version of the nardo test has been uploaded to the video vault so hopefully it'll be available soon ;)

Auto Motor und Sport - Nardo High-Speed Track Test Part 3.avi
Find out which of our six candidates from Bentley, Aston Martin, Mercedes, Porsche, Lamborghini and Ferrari wins the acceleration contest from 0 to 300 kilometers per hour and which has the best driving qualities not only on a high-speed racetrack but also for daily use.

Auto Motor und Sport - Cargofun.avi
A New Beetle turned into a pickup. Heiko Böhringer engineered the vehicle and found two craftsmen to help him build his prototype. Their Cargofun is intended to bridge the gap between the XXL-sized American pickups and the smaller ones used by tradesmen in Europe. There are hopes that at VW, they might even take it into serial production. If not they’re willing to produce it as a kit vehicle.

Auto Motor und Sport - Chrysler 300C.avi
It’s the new flagship at Chrysler. A real head-turner. One that is unmistakable. A car like a fortress. And also typical American. Everything’s a bit bigger. Chrysler hopes the 300 C will pull them out of their current crisis.

Auto Motor und Sport - BMW 1 Series.avi
BMW is starting up a campaign to rock the domain of the VW Golf. The 1 Series goes full throttle in opposition to the Golf class. In that segment it’s mainly practical values that count. Yet, the Bavarians are relying less on those and more on the familiar BMW virtues like driving pleasure and image.

[yg60m]

Hehehehe, i already have the Nardo part 3 :D i found on it while you were uploading it i think :wink:
Big thanks Alien :mrgreen:

[TT]

Thanks Alien, and the higher quality is in the vault, ready :D

[1zippo1]

Just watched the 120i review. Nice one! I like it, but it is pretty expensive and all reviewers say they prefer the 2.0d above the 2.0i. And I used to dislike the looks but now I think they're not so bad at all. At least it's something different! Too many cars in that segment look alike IMO.

Thanks AlienDB7, great vids!!

[yg60m]

Same opinion in the press for the engines, i suppose we have to wait for the M1 version :wink:

[martin100]

Yes, some more great vids you uploaded there. Thanks again AlienDB7 :!:

[gepacen]

I´m shocked... how could the Carrera GT beat an Enzo by more than a second in a race track???

[X-ale]

/\/\ Cuz it's from ze Germans and not the italians :?: Or maybe cuz it has less coats of paint on it :? Mmmmmm The driver in the enzo had prolly a big big lunch right b4 the test? :P What really impressed me is the DB9 time on the track... I'm also impressed that a Bentley could stay on the track! :wink: Can't think of driving with a cactus by your right hand... imagine the possibilities if it gets loose :x :lol: THANK YOU AlienDB7 and 1zippo1 and draaks and martin... :D

That's what I used to feel too. Until this video, I thought the 1 series is ugly. But after watching the AMS review, I actually begin to like the 1 series. The proportion is just right. Instead of following the trend of building taller, fatter cars, bmw decided to go with a completely different direction. Although I'm not sure if the 1 series is really worth the price...

[chipanggo]

finished downloading nardo part 3. again, thank you to alien, draak, and zippo for the nice AMS videos.

[Chingachgook]

Thank Alien for enconding and Draak for offering the space :wink:
And thanks to Zippo for the same reason

I'm curious to see the 3rd part...but I'm not expecting much considering thaht you say that's too short

[v0od0o]

Thank you guys
Just saw the 3rd part, how are the results in complete contrast with top gear's stig tests? The SLR lost only to the CGT on top gear's track but the margin was so small! I wonder why the SLR was so slow in the AMS test.

[ARMAN]

Thanx for vids - as always great stuff :D
I thought that 1 series will not beat A3 and golf, but as I read in Autocar, it seems to be a kickass car and video is a prove of it. The back of the car is ugly but front is nice. And RWD... smells like fun :P

[noosee]

Thanks for the vids. They are great :D

[bmagni]

hey. is there any possibility u repost the enzo review of C&D ??? please

[ARMAN]

CargoFun is great car but 10000 EURO for kit :shock: I would do it myself for that money

[sheruken]

Thanks so much Alien, Draak, and Zippo. Cant Thank enough. All I can say.. Keep em coming.. :p

[AlienDB7]

hey. is there any possibility u repost the enzo review of C&D ??? please
I don't have the DivX for it anymore, only the VCD I made for archival purpose. Basically I make a VCD and a DivX for each of the caps I made (I know, I like wasting CPU power). The DivX gets posted to zippo and draak's webspace and the VCD gets burned to CD. The file is rather big and probably won't fit on the webspace (50M limit). Your best bet is to get it from someone else in the forum.

There probably won't be any new videos beside the weekly AMS feature. Most north american shows seem to be on rerun right now... and I'm a bit lazy in finding new ones ;)

[bmagni]

/\/\/\/\/\ its ok, i already made a request and no one will even reply, so ill have to wait to have acces to the vault

[DeonV]

I enjoyed the CargoFun video. Something which I really am greatfull for is the Nardo test programs. I is great stuff.
Thanx again

[FoxFour]

The Nardo program is nice to watch. Wasn't going to download the CargoFun, but I think I will now. Thanks!

[AlienDB7]

This week's Auto Motor und Sport episode was very interesting, featuring cars from a tuned chrysler crossfire with V8 brabus engine to porsche 911 carrera S (997) and ford gt. The clips have been uploaded to zippo and draak's webspaces as usual.

Auto Motor und Sport - Startech Coupe V8.avi
Startech is affiliated with Brabus and is in charge of customizing the Chrysler models. For the Crossfire it dug down deep into its magic hat to come up with some outstanding specs: a top speed of 300 kilometres per hour and a 0 to 100 speed in 4.7 seconds. The reason for so much power: the original 6 cylinder engine was replaced by a V8. They call it the Startech Coupé V8.

Auto Motor und Sport - Hand-made Rolls Royce Hood Ornaments.avi
The famous hood ornament for Rolls Royce called the Spirit of Ecstasy or Emily is lovingly made by hand at a factory in Goodwood, England. This story reports on the history of the good old girl, how she's made and how she's changed over the years.

Auto Motor und Sport - Porsche Carrera 911 S.avi
Tested on Germany's fairy-tale route, the new Porsche Carrerra Type 997 is the latest generation of the 911 series. How it differs from the former model and what it has going for it, especially in the engine compartment is the theme of this story.

Auto Motor und Sport - Ford GT.avi
It's the revival of the racing legend from LeMans, the Ford GT 40 from the 1960s. Three times back to back the GT 40 won the world's most popular 24-hour race and triumphed over its arch rivals from Ferrari. With this GT, Ford is not heading for the racetrack but for regular roads.

140 000 EU$ for a 300C... HOT DAM :!: The counters are made of crystal or what :?: The original piece of 300crap is worth what... 40, 45 000 EU$... Ok it's tuned by Brabus +10, 15 000. Ok it has a v8 + 20, 25 000... That adds up to mmmm, let see: 85 000, at most. So that leaves 55 000 for the interior alone. WTF :?: :idea: It's the shifting knob, it's must be like a mini silicon titty with live skin and optional nipple for the overdrive... And that's one hell of an expensive boob job... for just 1... size A :!: :roll: :wink:

Make me damn mad :x

I have no other way to enjoy these video but by DLing from those links. I don't want a couple of dickheads to ruin it for everybody.

oh man. some people just don't know how to follow rules. idiots! :twisted:

Hahah... Justin.. he's everywhere!!

I'm all with you there. We shouldn't let the selected few ruining it for everyone. As long as it's okay for you and zippo, I don't have problem uploading the videos ;)

[draak666]

We're a good team. Would be a shame to see it come to an end. :D Let's get on with it!

Anyone who still needs the Saab video: download now, because in a couple of hours it will be replaced by a mantronix song. For a day or two. Then we go right back to Alien. 8)

[1zippo1]

Wow, the urls spread even faster then I thought :?

This is not so good... euhm I think that I better change it again for safety.
Wouldn't like to lose this one again.

AlienDB7 Thanks for the new videos, I found the 997 review a bit far fetched, but never the less any 997 review is nice to have. The Ford GT review was cool, but yellow doesn't really fit the car. Blue or black is better... now I come to think of it, never saw a black one before.


**** ANNOUNCEMENT *****

Webspace url is changed again.

It was:
http://users.pandora.be/cgt

now it is:
http://users.pandora.be/p997s

PS: I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, but I think this is for the best.

[TT]

Noted ;) thanks and good move :D

[AlienDB7]

A new URL requres some new videos... so I uploaded couple of new ones to zippo's webspace:

Sports Car Revolution - Ford GT40 and GT.mpg
Sports Car Revolution - Audi S4 Winter Test.avi

Hope you guys like them ;)

[ARMAN]

Jakie Stewart in GT40 vid :shock: Thanx Alien+Zippo :wink:
Cant wait for winter to drive in the snow :mrgreen: the guy having fan in S4 as I can see :P

[Stikz]

thanks a lot guys. You guys are heroes to the people with no access to the vault.

[szumszer]

it is not the first time you guys perservere through such bs; thanks for sticking around and providing all of us with great videos, Stikz is right: you guys are heroes ... thanks again for great work

[Vansquish]

Well put szumszer, I would've thrown in the towel long ago I imagine, but the fact that you guys keep fighting back to put new vids on the net is one of the important factors to JW's success...thanks for the hard work and time :)

Oh yes...thanks for the excellent rips too...nice feature with the GT40/GT hehe.

[martin100]

Unfortunately no good reviews on todays AMS-TV either, just about the Audi A3 Sportback... :roll: ... but next week theres a best-of and i think there´ll be some more interesting features.
And thanx alot for the new vids. You are really doing a great job :D

The mitsu vs. smart comparison sounds promising though. Think our friend zippo would love to see that.

Most likely the best of episode won't be shown here.

[quattrodude]

When is the RS6 Plus test comming? Can't wait for that one!

[AlienDB7]

When is the RS6 Plus test comming? Can't wait for that one!
I have no idea, don't know what's featured in the episode until about a week in advance :)

Anyhow, 2 new AMS clips on draak's webspace, enjoy!

Auto Motor und Sport - Mazda 6 vs Opel Vectra vs Peugeot 407.avi
In the mid-range the newcomer, the Peugeot 407, is trying to make a good impression with its good looks. Whether that impression will be a lasting one will also be decided by a comparison with two well known opponents: the Opel Vectra and the Mazda 6.

Auto Motor und Sport - Fuore Black Jag.avi
The unveiling of a small sensation. A super sports car wearing the Jaguar emblem. Something we haven’t seen for a long time.
Sad that it’s a car we shall never see on the road.
Fuore Design International is located on the Calle Teodor Roviralta in a posh section of Barcelona.Here, in a stylish setting, surrounded by palm trees and stunning architecture, is where the idea of the Black Jag was born.

[martin100]

I remember the RS6 plus review has been in the same show as the Fuore Black Jag here, so it doesn´t look too good that it will be shown at all. But i could be wrong :roll:

[AlienDB7]

I remember the RS6 plus review has been in the same show as the Fuore Black Jag here, so it doesn´t look too good that it will be shown at all. But i could be wrong :roll:
Usually they mix and match features so it may appear a month or 2 from now. Just have to wait :)

New video on zippo's webspace: AutoWeek - Chevrolet Corvette C6.avi

[aks]

thanks for the new vids!

let's hope no more posting on other forums!!!!

[Stikz]

thanks for the vid man!

Ahhh, i didn´t know that. So there is still hope left :wink:

[AlienDB7]

Just checked the local TV station's tv schedule, there won't be AMS for at least the next two weeks. Emailed them about it, hopefully the show doesn't get cancelled :(

It's a detroit station after all, the big-3 may not want people to see an euro car show :?

[ARMAN]

:shock: oh no.... but....but... what will we do without vids :cry:

[TT]

Just a summer break hopefully!

[martin100]

I think theres a summer break here aswell. Otherwise i couldn´t imagine why the next episode is a best-of. But i´m more concerned about the Top Gear series is already over (Only 10 episodes :cry: ). When does the next series start in autumn exactly?
And i got the German review of the Audi RS6 plus from the Video and Picture links section now. Thanks :wink:

[dons5]

Enzo is still better then Carerra GT no matter what that test says
those arent even real tracks there testin them on there shit tracks, what u need is F1 tracks

[AlienDB7]

Hopefully AMS is really on summer break over here. Have yet to get an email reply from the TV station. In the mean time, I'll just start posting some "filler" videos :wink:

5thGear-GreatestCars.r01
Part 3 (of 3) of the 5th Gear Greatest Cars in the World special as requested. Part 1 and 2 will be posted in the coming weeks. No, it's only cap from Speed Channel, not Jabba's original cap.

Sports Car Revolution - BMW M1.mpg

Sports Car Revolution - Dodge Viper Competition Coupe.mpg
714ft-lb of torque says enough!

[AlienDB7]

Been away from the forum for a bit too long.... been a bit too busy at work lately. Anyhow, several new videos got posted on zippo's and draak's webspace:

5thGear-GreatestCars.r00
Part 2 of 3 (rar set) for the 5th Gear Greatest Cars in the World special. Part 1 will be available next week.

Tencrows Driving TV - BMW Isetta.mpg
Probably the coolest BMW ever, literally as cool as a fridge :mrgreen:

Toyota Tacoma Double Cab - Invincible.mpg
Looks like toyota is really exploiting the Top Gear hilux idea for the commercials...

Sports Car Revolution - Lamborghini Miura No 2.avi
The oldest miura in existance. Yes, No1 got destroyed in the factory when it got hit by a truck :(

Top Gear - Track Day Rundown.wmv
Top Gear "comparison" between various track day cars.

[yg60m]

O yes !! Thank you mate :D

[SPEED_DEMON82]

[vexor]

Wow, that Radical in the Top Gear vid is fast, I wonder how fast the turbo version is.

[aks]

thanks so much, u jus never stop giving!!

[martin100]

Thanks for the new vids :wink: Before i download i´d like to know if these Sports Car Revolution vids are good. Are they American? Cause i don´t really like American reviews and would prefer English vids every day...

[itsthepham]

If im not mistaken. That Radical SR3 is amazingly fast. I just love the name too. "Radical" ... also...I read in a magazine...I believe it was EVO...the thing has Civic Type R engine. Absolutely crazy.

[dingo]

good on you man, keepin the flow comin durin an AMS drought!

thanks so much, u jus never stop giving!!

Do you get AMS on free-to-air TV in Sydney? We get it on Channel 31 (a community channel with nothing else good) every Monday night.

[AlienDB7]

Have both good and bad news (don't we all hate that?)

Yes, Auto Motor und Sport was on TV tonight (even though the schedule said something different). They had a great review of the Lotus Exige with some nice driving.

Here comes the bad news, I didn't start the capping program in time and missed most of the Exige review :cry: Hopefully someone out there got the segment capped. The rest of the program was capped however. Will have them posted soon...

A race car for the road - that’s what many cars aspire to be, only few ever make it. The Lotus Exige is one of those. Light, hard and brutal. It weighs 916 kilograms and symbolises a pure and genuine sports car. Adequate power plus low weight - that’s the formula Lotus has been using for a long time to construct its cars. One of the most uncompromising ways Lotus has applied this to a street-legal car is in the case of the Exige.

[TT]

How unlucky? Won't they do reruns later during the week?

[dulja]

sorry guys, but how do i download these videos?

[TT]

By going on draak's and zippo's webpages (and the links were posted a lot of times, so just read the last pages ;))

[dulja]

thank you tt

[AlienDB7]

How unlucky? Won't they do reruns later during the week?
Unfortunately, not for the channel I'm getting AMS from :(

A few new AMS clips have been uploaded to zippo's (http://users.pandora.be/p997s/) webspace:

Auto Motor und Sport - Lotus Exige Snippet.mpg
(Yes, only the last 30sec of the review.. the remaining was at least 10x better)

One of the most uncompromising ways Lotus has applied this to a street-legal car is in the case of the Exige.

Auto Motor und Sport - Audi S4 Cabriolet vs BMW M3 SMG Cabrio.avi
When the sun is out and tickles your nose without it burning, that’s when driving a convertible is great fun. For those who want even more there are two very seductive German convertibles on the market: the Audi S4 and the BMW M3 both more than just cars for fresh-air fans but also loaded with power - more than 340 horses to be exact.

Auto Motor und Sport - Chrysler Crossfire Roadster.avi
The pop-up wing is an old familiar face. The same as its becoming front section. And people have slowly grown used to its sculpted hood. That’s all part of Chrysler’s big hope, the Crossfire. But this one is new. Now the Crossfire is offered as a roadster. That allows it to get closer to its roots, namely the Mercedes SLK, the car the Crossfire is technically based on. But this roadster is a very unique car. A true Chrysler.

And one on draak's (http://users.pandora.be/draak999/) webspace:

5thGear-GreatestCars.rar
Finally, the part 1 of the rar set. Enjoy the 5th Gear special!

[TT]

Thanks Alien, especially for the last (first) part of the rar file ;)

[ARMAN]

man... http://arman.xz.cz/smilees/banghead.gif I missed 2nd part of 5th gear :oops: can someone share it with me via ICQ? PM me pleeeeeez

[dons5]

lol where is ur links to ur webspace pages do i gotta scroll back like 10 pages and look for them or is there another way??

[TT]

There is nothing bad in reading some pages back dude ;)

[AlienDB7]

If you look closely, the links are in my post :mrgreen:

[ARMAN]

someone still have unrared 2nd part of 5th gear????????? PM me pleeeez :oops:

[1zippo1]

Excellent selection of video's from AMS! Thanks AlienDB7.

I think the roadster version of the Crossfire looks much better because you don't have that arched back any more when you drop the hood.

I'll send that BMW M3 Cabrio vs Audi S4 to my uncle if you don't mind. He currently has a 330Ci and thinks the M3 is to close to his current car to buy sell the 330.

[martin100]

Great, the S4 vs M3 vid sounds interesting. Can´t remember when they showed it here in Germany. D/L now. Thanks :wink:

[aks]

i'm havin trouble wit the fifth gear rar files, it says file is corrupt when unraring?!?! any ideas?

[SPEED_DEMON82]

I don't see any problem at all, mine extract just fine

[TT]

No problem here... and for sure one of the three parts was corrupted when you downloaded it guys.. did you use a download manager? could happen even in that case, but it's rare

[AlienDB7]

Just uploaded a SFV file so you guys can verify the rar files. If a number of you are having problem with a certain rar file, I can repost it later in the week.

Yes, the rars check out fine on my PC ;)

[Chingachgook]

Thanks mates, the 5th Gear video is fantastic.

And I loved the little Exige S2 video, fantastic car. I never loved the look of the Elise S2, but this Exige S2 is....BEAUTIFUL. Even if there's no competition with the S1....

DOH :!: What's the home address of the AMS director of programing again? :twisted: Gazillion thanks again guyz. :D

[dingo]

I just watched the Exige S2 review on AMS on local TV, what a great little car. The way he was driving through the woods was sensational, though that noisy Celica engine might get a bit irritating.
I thought that was one of the better AMS reviews, with plenty of engine noise and tire squeeling...something they often lack. :D

[aks]

thanks AlienDB7 for the sfv file, it showed my 5thGear-GreatestCars.r00 part was the one wit the prob. if u could post 5thGear-GreatestCars.r00 again anytime it would be greatly appreciated! :D thanks anyway

Total agree with you. It almost reminds me of the Motorvision handling track testing with their in car shots. Wonder if anyone out there got it capped :roll:

turbo.fr - Opel Speedster Turbo.asf

The Exige video is just another short clip from last week's AMS review, this time with some nice driving. The Opel Steerster videos are for mr. "porsche" st-anger ;)

Another good episode of AMS tonight, they did a test drive of the TVR Tuscan and the new Brabus SLK. They were both very good, have they been shown in other parts of the world?

Thanx AlienDB7 problem solved. You are the Man :wink:
45 mins of non stop fun :popcorn:

[Rudi]

UAU :lol:

[1zippo1]

since those 2 speedster videos were reposts (mostly for st-anger) who now allready downloaded these, I suppose I can replace them by some other Speedster videos. Because that's the only way I can give X-ale the files, the ftp didn't work and his router blocks file transfers on icq. If you want I can put your vids back up later (the turbo & AMS speedster one)

[X-ale]

Sorry guys, but it won't take long... I'll finish as quicly as possible so AlienDB7 can upload the Exige piece he has us drooling for a week now. :wink:

EDIT: Done! :D Now i can start puzzling myself on what where and how... :wink:

[AlienDB7]

Thanks zippo for the OPEL speedster materials, and X-ale too!

Now posted on zippo's webspace:

Hope everyone got the 5th Gear special on draak's webspace, I've replaced it with couple other clips:
5th Gear - BMW Z4 (Vicki).avi
Auto Motor und Sport - VW Golf vs Skoda Octavia.avi

:D I've never seen this one before, thanks AlienDB7. I really like the looks of the Z4, let's see what she says about it!

[AlienDB7]

The Z4 video is off 4th episode of 5th Gear series 2, it's one of the few episodes Jabba didn't cap. Tiff reviewed the hummer H2 in that episode as well. No, he didn't do any powerslide in it :D

You don't happen to have the whole episode ...

Not too push you or something, but it would really be nice, powerslides or not :D

EDIT: the review of the Z4 was pretty positive. Vicky didn't like the electronic guizmoses but I fear she'll have to get used to that since more and more cars will be equipped with those things.

[AlienDB7]

Yes I do have the episode. I've been making svcds of 5th Gear episodes ever since they started showing them in North America. Each episode is about 350-375MB. Unfortunately, I don't have the Tiff review on DivX so I'll have to rip it from the svcd.

I agree with you on the electronic trend. It's the information age so everything's filled with electronics nowadays. Some electronics are useful and can save your life but others are just plain distracting.

Welcome (to the third millenium) :roll:

[draak666]

Man, I have been on smallband for five consequtive days. :? Now that my mum starts using internet and my dad being on vacation at home they're sucking up all of our bandwidth. I don't dare to think about what I missed the passed two months.

Anyway, that makes it all the more exiting to return and find some excellent fresh videos. :D Vicky in the Z4 was nice, but the Exige video was the best. I like how these guys edit their videos, I like the shots they make, I like the way they drive their cars. IMO they give you the best impression on any car. Thanks a lot for this vid!

Just happen to be sorting out Jabba's 5th Gear caps last night and guess what I've found... the S2 PR4 of 5th Gear! It's only 58M so I can send it to you if you want.

As it turns out, the episodes airred on Channel 5 are different from the ones on the Discovery Channel. I compared old (channel 5) and new caps (discovery) of Jabba's and basically they're showing features in different order / episodes. Strangely enough, Speed Channel in NA seems to be showing the discovery channel edit :roll:


Akshay: I usually time record the shows using my TV Tuner to AVI. Then I have to edit the video and encode it to DivX/VCD/SVCD.

This is the TV Tuner I have, not the best but it works and doesn't break the wallet. There're much better ones out there.


draak: welcome back! I've been missing quite a bit of stuff too. Constantly running low in disk space and don't have enough time to catch up :( Time to pick up more blanks and start burning.

:oops: I've been sorting my 5th gear episodes too and I was very surprised when you said jabba had ripped that episode with the Hummer, because I've never missed any of those. So I looked it up and I came to the conclusion that I had it allready :oops:

Sorry for wasting your time, I assumed to soon that I hadn't seen the Hummer feature because it was in the same episode as the Z4 feature. But as you said, they've mixed it up.

Thanks anyway for your time. If you happen to come accross something new on 5th gear again however, we would all be glad to see that.

Dude, i'll be very ******* polite: you know the ******* box that was around your ******* video card, it answers ******* evrything your asking in the ******* back of it. As to the ******* "how to", that's all in the little ******* manual that ******* came with it. I hope ******* you know what ******* brand it is so if you ******* need ******* technical support go the their official web ******* site. :roll:

I can't believe how patient you are with this guy's incessant whining :P :wink:

[AlienDB7]

So far, the only "new" episode I've got is the Series 1 PR 6. It featured Tiff in MG TF, Adrian in TR5 and Vicki in LoCost racing. Not sure if Jabba capped it or not, at least it's one of the 5th Gear episodes I didn't have.

I get 2 new 5th Gear episodes every week, will keep you posted when there's a new ep for us collectors ;)

Akshay: no, you can't reverse the connection, it may even damage your equipment if you try (rarely). There has to be a reason why it's called the TV-out instead of Video-in.

[X-ale]

Thanks, hope you did the *beep* sound as you read along. Be sure I thaught all the little stars and had to erase many, many more. If your curiosity can't be helped, the ******* = the "f" word + "ing". Now read again and try to imagine the original smilie that came with it :wink:

[-Akshay-]

thanx for clearing that out alien

i guess gotta buy that card

Looked it up and yes, I've got that episode from a capture from Jabba. Btw, how have you exactly sorted out your episodes? Because the first one's weren't named correctly.

Thanks for providing us with those missing 5th gear features!!
