That show kicked serious arse.

I'm glad they had that Swedish car "Worlds Fastest Car" on. Badder than a Mclaren F1. Yea..... =-)

Power sliding on the beach in a Porsche Carrera. I'm in.

Sweet! My Tivo grabbed it...good boy, I trained you well. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

If you google around you'll find quite a few episodes on the net. There are some real gems including some amazing cars we'll never see here in the US.

the only thing I 'wish' TiVo would allow you to do is to record a minute or two,
without having to be there watching it at the same time.

for instance,
I started a thread tonite about seeing a Red 914 on a Discovery Health Channel.

I'd like to program TiVo to record the 56th minute of this program, but that's not possible.
I just have so much stored on the hard drive, every minute counts! lol

I can't believe you have only just got Top Gear over the pond, back when I actually owned a TV it was the only thing worth watching! Clarkson is just pure genius. wait til you get the show with the 924 (or was it a 944?) and see what they did with it. Also the series where they tried to destroy a Toyota Hilux and failed.

Mike,

That color is Jaguar Racing Green. Below is a link to the Jaguar web site that gives you an excellant idea of what the car looks like in any available Jag color.

I think you can... you just have to set the time manually, like a VCR... you can also use tivo desktop(or other, hacker, software) to copy the program to your computer and edit it... right now though, on series 2 tivos, you have to use Sonic 'mydvd' to edit and copy to dvd...
