Over the Moon with the Cavalier
Jasper - 14/3/09 at 09:43 PM

Did anybody else see this gem of a TV programme, part of a motoring series on BBC Four?

An hour of reps talking about their company cars all filmed in 1992, endless GLS's , CDI's, 190E's and Clubman D's ..... and the very sad salesman driving them (yes I was one! )

If you didn't watch it on iPlayer, genius .... and another programme with Phil Jupitus looking at car design in the 50-60's.....

Seems not to be available on iplayer.

Found a programme called 'the car show' whilst looking though.
That was quite entertaining.

Here's a couple of the programmes that were good:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00j4c2s/The_Maharajas_Motor_Car_The_Story_of_RollsRoyce_in_India/

It doesn't look like the Cavalier one is available which is a shame:

It's proper title is: From A to B - Tales of Modern Motoring. It is on a Torrent site though....

Yeah - if I was given a Maestro I' have been looking for another job - loved the fact his wife wouldn't even go in it
