How long do forum members not based in the U.K. have to wait, before Top Gear is aired in their particular country by their network ?

We get Top Gear on SBS-TV here.
I think that they're on a 3-week break now for the world cup.
We should see the C6 episode in early July.

Hi Clogzz.

Thanks for the reply.

So, although there is a delay it's not that much, and if it were not for the World Cup, I suppose you might see it sooner.

Hi ACTIVE8,

And yes, we normally get to see it within the week.
SBS-TV’s target audience is mainly the residents of non-Anglo descent, and they also broadcast all the one-off’s from Europe.
A few weeks ago, they aired the Eurovision contest, something like the day after.
Now, it’s the World Cup’s turn.

What they probably mean is independant damping for each wheel. Having 4 spheres per axle may mean 2 spheres er wheel, thus different settings per wheel too.

There are only 3 spheres on the front axle,4 on the rear. there is a varying width passageway between the sphere & the strut,thats what varies the dampening at each wheel independently not the central sphere(s)

Here in New Zealand we're still watching repeats of the previous season, so who knows when they'll get to it....

Hahahaha....

No, just an enthusiast.... and yes, we had a Citroen (a GS) at the time of the rainbow warrior incident and it, being a French car, wasn't looked on too favourably by some of the smaller minded people here at the time....

I think they've got over it now though...

Regards,
Simon
