I'm with ST on that one. I don't have a BT capable connection (can't get away with it at work, 24k dialup at home) but I have a 512MB USB drive in my pocket 🙁
 
i'll have an HTTP host for it in about 40 mins'ish. PM me if you want the link for it at that time. will offer 20 slots for downloads, first come first serve 🙂
and please don't go posting the link, last time i did this someone posted the link on another forum and while i was anticipating 20 downloads i had close to 60 and luckily got rid of it in time before going over bandwidth!!
 
wow, i thought people would jump on that offer. not a single PM yet!
guess nobody wants top gear 😉

it'll be up in 11 minutes, i'm goign to bed in 15 so if you want it within the next 12 hours send me a PM within 15 mins. else wait till tomorrow morning to check ATOT again, which will be late night in the US

sorry for the delay guys, the last 200 KB is throwing PMS and is refusing to upload. i've stopped and resumed the connection like 10 times but still no cigar yet. will have it up asap.

zimu... how long can u keep up the file? I need 6 hrs!! I have a slow download speed...

it'll be up for a while, much more than 6 hours for sure... soon as its used up a good portion of bandwidth i'll take it down!
 
My download is on Zimu...

Thanks

10 hrs left 🙁 🙁 🙁

BTW, I had an idea, why dont u just email the 300 mb file to our 1 gb email accounts(gmail, rediffmail) in the future? It ll be much simpler for you, and you ll save on the bandwidth ...

We cud make a mailing list 🙂
 
great video...I could host it somewhere for a few people...I suppose I could host it for a lot of people, but I have 20 gigs that I can burn right now. Won't be up til tonight though...anybody that can't get it from Zimu, PM me.

1) gmail has an attachment size limit.
2) that'd require me to re-email it to everyone who asks for it over this period of time, unless i email it to myself and forward it to everyone. that requires more work than simply hosting it and telling people the link. no forwarding hassle or anything or size limit problems.

make sense?

Several episodes ago:
Jeremy reguarding the Cadillac CTS: "It's American. I don't like any American car."

Jeremy on the most recent top gear, driving a Ford GT: "It's a shame that only 28 of these are being brought to the UK. And most of those will never see the rain, they'll be kept with the family silver, taken out only for special occasions. But not mine, I'm one of the lucky ones, I'm getting one of the 28 Ford GTs."

:roll:
 
Don't forget that the Ford GT got 4 miles per UK gallon on the track, and a UK gallon is more than a US gallon! 😉

Twas a good episode 🙂


Confused

The Motor Trend and Car and Driver review listed its mileage at 14city/21hwy.

oddly dishonest of topgear?

Probably a simple mistake, I guess?

That 4 mpg was pretty impressive, though. 😀
