Default All Jeremy Clarkson Sunday Times reviews-*new* others added

Hello,

This isn't actually a "magazine scan", I just copy pasted all the articles into word documents and added them to one zip file.

The articles are very good IMO. Short but entertaining! And he did review some very nice cars. If you want to know wich articles are in the zip file, look at the site:
http://driving.timesonline.co.uk/sec...,12529,00.html

Here is the zip file:
http://www.ks-creations.net/temp/Jer...ay%20Times.zip

greetingz
zippo

EDIT: I've uploaded some new Sunday Times articles on my webspace. And also a cool article from Jeremy about the 50 worst cars ever.

The Top Gear article about the 50 worst cars ever:
http://users.pandora.be/cgt/Jeremy%2...ars%20Ever.zip

About half of the Jeremy Clarkson reviews put into word files, so that their easier to print them (so only download this one if you want to print the articles like me)
http://users.pandora.be/cgt/Jeremy%2...20versions.zip

A lot of Car reviews from the Times Online not by Jeremy:
http://users.pandora.be/cgt/Times%20...%20by%20JC.zip

Here you can see the cars reviewed (not by JC)

Damn you're fast, you responded to my post and edited your response again in like 40 sec :shock: :shock: :shock:

I'm uploading it again, it cancelled the previous time.

EDIT: ops: I fear I have some problems with my site
Sorry, didn't expect this. I suppose it's related to the thing that happend a couple of days ago. They said the site was overloaded...

I fear I have to postpone this. I should have checked if my site worked first, you may delete or lock this topic if you like. I'll try this again later... In the meantime, I can send the file to you on msn.

It's only 3 meg big, but it takes some 40 minutes to save all the articles so

see ya TT

Wow, you sure spent lots of time one this zippo. Jeremy's articles are as interesting, if not more interesting, to read as his appearance on TV/video.

Thanks for taking the time and effort in compiling these articles zippo, I do enjoy reading Clarksons articles and looking forward to going through the whole lot!

I just bought his book 'Born to be riled'. It's a collection of collumns and artiles he has written for multiple magazines and newspapers. Thanks anyway for the offer, zippo! It's a great idea, but I just couldn't wait for it.

Aha, that's one of the thing I wanted to do myself. Plz tell me where you bought it. I suppose Gent has plenty of big book shops, but I fear there aren't any in the neighbourhood of where I live. I've recently read an article about his new book, and the guy loved it so

@TT: If you want I can host the file now, my webspace seems to be working again... But I suppose a 3Meg file won't harm your BW so much, certainly since it's not a video.

By the way, I've printed out all of the articles And I'm still printing out some others. Damon Hill did some reviews, and there are other nice ones. Nobody has clarksons style, but still a joy to read in comparison to Belgian magazines IMO! I've saved those too btw, if some of you like I could post these too...
