simonr Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I have it on good authority that SR is indeed for sale! If anyone knows who to talk to about buying the company - let me know! I would just love to see Col's face when he thinks he's got a meeting with Sven Stoatgobbler the venture capitalist - and it's me that walks in to the room to point & laugh!

You lot may be used to the accent, but Tiff Needell always sounds like he's receiving a continuous, never ending blowjob. I can't stand his voice. Maybe I'm jealous. Bill.

Guest diesel_jim Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 I've just watched the 2nd part of Race to Dakar on Sky Two. I missed the first part alas.Its kinda the sequal to "The Long Way Round" with Charlie Boorman entering the Dakar. The really funny part is, they get built a BMW X5 chase car. The car is built by a certain company famed for its orange springs. There is an awful lot of bad press for said company on TV. Including Colon being interviewed. The X5 was over budget, late and not finished, and kept breaking down - I laughed. For anyone who has an axe to grind - essential viewing Andy.... remember my mate Doug in the black vitara on Salisbury plain? on the first eposide of the race to dakar, there is the X5 doing doughnuts and looking stuck for a few seconds.... that was Doug instructing Charlie!

I met him Racing Bill, he came down to play Autocross when we were on the Supermotos - I expected him to be the usual knobby journo type and he comes accross as a pretty good guy face to face, the added bonus that he whupped all the local autocross lads including the series leader in a car he'd never sat in B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He narrates a few programs for Discovery Channel or Nat Geo etc, and that unmistakeable voice /accent to me sounds like he is just about to ''arrive'' any second now. Bill.
