Fifth Gear

Was watching 5th Gear on Dave and there was a guy who had quite a collection of old Skodas modding and things.
Just wondering if he is on Briskoda

Re: Fifth Gear

That is quite an old episode from around '02 or '03. The guys name was Jay (I think) and he had loads of rear engined beasts approx 40. Dave Rapid might know this guy.

Re: Fifth Gear

Just switched over to Dave today and caught the last bit of it, it seemed I missed an intro about Skoda jokes and how Skodas aren't well perceived, but I think this is most of it. Seems it gets regular repeats on Dave anyway.

Re: Fifth Gear

Thanks for the Youtube link, as I've never managed to catch that episode.

I think the comment in the video "45 skodas in 10 years",
included any that he's sold on / broken for spares,
I doubt he's got that big a lock-up to hold 45 cars.
