Unhappy

Blimey, I'm such a dumbass when it comes to technical stuff. Bioforger, thanks for the response but I don't even know what a Codex is. Is it a dual action formula to relieve cogestion and troublesome coughs?

Chris,

Went into the site, clicked on the windows option and then mirror blah, blah uk and it then tells me mirror has exceeded it's bandwith. I need my hand held on this I'm so embarassingly inept!

J

P.S. When I try to play it I'm being told a compressor could not be found.

Got it sorted - downloaded the VLC player from a different source and opened the file with it. This technology stuff is rather clever....

Glad you got it sorted, I was just about to ask my 85 year old grandma to explain how it works

Check the cebera videos on the link!, Especially the one through the tunnel as he opens it up for a split second, truly amazing noise....

Hello Charlie,

I was trawling through them all last night (until 4am). Some cracking footage.

Actually, Pistonheads is a very good site. I've never posted on there but often have a look in to see what's up.

A lot of the local lads have been trying to talk me in to decamping over to there. To be fair I've probably become a bit scooby-scentric over the last couple of months and really ought rekindle my enthusiasm in all marques once more.

I drove a 5.0 Griffith when I was 21 and was entirely intoxicated - reliability aside I love TVR's. Not just the performance/handling but the looks and the whole "Britishness" of the marque.

Hi mate,
Agreed, the noise of tvr's is phenomenal, along with the british muscle feel about them. Some real good footage on the site aswell.

Happened to be following a 2004 plate, tuscan the over day, not in my scooby; i might have *tried* and had a play with it if i was....but once it got on the motorway, the noise and acceleration was amazing, it just went into the distance!!

Works fine for me, but just clicking on the play video button will take a while for it to load seeing as the file is 51.6m....

Its easier to right click on the play video button and "save target as"

Save it to your computer and watch it from there....
