Forgot to mention that I ordered the XR2s and Minis DVDs from AJK Television Productions. I don't have Motors TV and only saw a couple of the programmes before I watched the DVDs. Thoroughly enjoyed them. Sasha did a good job; though some of the "interviews" with certain monosyllabic drivers were hilarious - for all the wrong reasons.  Loved the commentary from Richard John Neil. OK he got some drivers names wrong from time to time - but his commentary is very enthusiastic and quite humerous. He does a great job promoting both Knockhill and the SMRC championships. Here's an idea - get him in the celebrity mini!  The in-car bonus DVDs were great too - I think Barry's was the only one with an audible swear word though.

I bought the Mini ones and they were a good watch.
Would, however, have to say: - did they honestly go out on MotorsTV with those sound clashes? Like Sasha talking and over the top comes "the FFDR Scottish Mini Cooper Cup in association with STV Jobs". Especially when that's more or less exactly what she had just said - could the hairpin cameraman please be introduced to the zoom out button. How many good overtakes did you get to see brewing up the railway straight then only get to see someones door going through the corner
Thought it was a pity they seemed to stop the driver QAs, they were quite funny, although I guess more camera time on car for the sponsors was a better priority. Particular favourite though: Sasha: "have you go lucky underwear" David Sleigh: "aye...bet you do too" he said grinning!
