Hi,

I got a letter off Andy Middlehurst yesterday, on which he told me to stay tuned for 'Top Gear' this Sunday. He said that they filmed skyline's around my/Middlehurst's area.

Regards,

I have to video it as im out n about !

Lets just hope that they realise the might of a skyrocket ! and dont go for the old so much electronics removing the driver line !!! you never know they might realise that its the best, qiuckest, and MOST reliable, car that money could buy !! not that im biast in anyway !

Glen...cheers for the offer, but I'm afraid I don't have a PAL VCR here
I'll just have to wait...

If i record it on my PC, then i will try and post it later. Depends how long it is though. I have done a vid of the Zonda review from a few weeks ago and that is 71/2 mins and 12mb in size.

GrahamM...nice one! The Zonda program was on this week here in Japan

Good to hear that, will keep any eye out

according to the top gear website:http://www.bbc.co.uk/topgear/. programme contains item on buying a used skyline.

Hope the facts are correct
Can just imagine......go straight to Middlehursts and buy one (no disrespect to Middlehurst's).
My advice would be ....go straight to the GTR forum and ask for advice Much better idea.
You don't need to go to a dealer and a small independent skyline garage can service you car and tune it up (plenty to choose from )

Top Gear was great, it had all the Skylines, the R32, R33 and the R34, and they looked good, as usual...

Just as good, was the first bit about the Aston Martin and the Ferrari, where they were down here on the Isle of Shite... Didnt see myself or my car...
Nice views though...

 

[m4tt_c]

looks like you the only one who was impressed lol

 

[GrahamM]

I've encoded the skyline feature, so if you want a copy just PM me. It is in WMV format and is just under 10mb.

Graham....thanks for the vid!

I though it was a pretty bad report from a very missinformed presenter....R32 exploding brakes, R33s having the same turbos as the R34, car for the Playstation generation statement again, "by fitting a chip you are comprimising the life of the turbos", only very old racing GTR history....all in all very dissapointing. Very surprised to see that even the "best" tv motoring journalists are so badly informed on the Skyline GTR!!
