UK TV review of RX8

Fairly mediocre, but 5 minutes 19.7 seconds of someone being thrilled with the car!

If you really must have these, then there are higher res versions, but I'd ask that you think about mirroring before downloading these as I imagine there will be a few people after them and my bandwidth is limited.

Thanks to bugbear for the first 2 files...

For those e-mule / edonkey P2P users, here's an ed2k link for the small version:

ed2k://|file|pulling_power_320_240.avi|10041344|226C2EF3E 76477E01B1DC02ED27AA358|/

I'll add more links as I get the other 2 files.

I'll mirror these when I get home (though I think your bandwidth has already run out, so might not be able to get them!)

Andy, if BlueAdepts bandwith has gone PM me before 5pm and I can dump you the 640x480 version down the T1 line in work.

It's running flat out at 256Kbps although the box had a memory parity error at 5am and was rebooted at 8am... Still up, but there may be a hardware fault... beware.

BTW, the "high" version is AWESOME.

Just got finished downloading the "high res" version and watching it. What a fantastic video! So many positive things, as if we didn't know already. Anyway, She (narrator and driver) definately looked like she enjoyed driving it - as if we didn't know that already too!

Thank you BlueAdept for posting that, and thank you bugbear for hosting the file.

The high res version IS awesome, thanks for capturing and hosting this for us in the states. I gotta ask, how was it sourced/digitized? HD satellite feed into a PC?
