Default Watch this NOW limited time

Great programme on Jaguar and F-Type in particular.
Only available for another two days.
Supercar Superbuild 2: Jaguar | Quest TV
I was intrigued by the "Modified Doors only for 18MY"sticker at about 23minutes in.

Presumably they are only building 18MY now ?

They're still making 17MY right now, its too early to start producing 18MY vehicles to sell legally. In all likelihood that's a pre-production test vehicle, and thus they need to make sure the parts for 18MY vehicles don't get put on a 17MY vehicle since they are running down the line at the same time. However, clearly they aren't very good at this since my vehicle got a 15MY side skirt on one side and a 16MY skirt on the other side.

Turn off Privacy Badger, Ghostery, Ad-Block or whatever tracking stuff you have ....

EDIT: I did that, and also tried a different browser...

I am assuming it's restricted outside the UK, and my tracking stuff wasn't the culprit.

I'm downloading the video clip now but it's 2GB so a bit of a pain to handle...

I'm not having any luck with Chrome or Edge. I didn't expect any luck with Edge because I don't seem to have luck with *anything* with Edge, but that's what I've got.

EDIT: Add Opera to that list. At this point I am thinking it's them, not me.

Sorry you guys can't watch this, perhaps a regional thing. Available until 21.00 GMT today, Tuesday.
Cambo, how do you download it? I only have an iPad not a PC. Would love to save it.

So far it's taken close to 11-1/2 hours to download 520mb out of the 2GB video... so I'm guessing by Friday I might have it.

You won't be able to download it from an iPad, you need the right plugins in your browser (i.e. Firefox) to download the flash video.

When I finally get it i'll upload it to YouTube and link it here privately, that should avoid any legal interventions...

I have tried to download it myself, but the connection with the server keeps getting lost at the 600 MB mark. My speed is fortunately faster than yours, but unfortunately the server does not allow resuming the download (must start fresh every time). I've tried 3 times now, and it stops at the same point every time so I'm going to give up

If you can download it successfully I'm sure we'll all be most appreciative!

Yeah, actually that's what happens with me too... seems we won't be able to get it... damn...

Just in case anyone finds it by other means, it's called Supercar Superbuild 2: Jaguar from Quest TV... 43m 45s in length.

Made it happen! Created a new anonymous Dropbox specifically for the file, so get it while it lasts (i.e. before the account is killed for one reason or another).

Thanks so much for getting the video for us! I'm downloading now and I'll watch it with my wife later on today.

I've converted the file into .mkv format and put it in my Dropbox, it's now reduced in size to 552MB (1/3 the size of the original file) with no loss of quality, get it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nux6snj4ge...-Type.mkv?dl=0
