  • 1) (Duff Paddy) This torrent is a re-upload of the 8 classic Top Gear shows that appeared on my Peel blog Kat's Karavan and have now expired onMost of them are full (or nearly full) shows, encoded as 320K MP3s from 7-inch reel-to-reel tapes.
  • Many thanks to hills1902 for supplying the tapes, to John for ripping and encoding them and to Phil for originally hosting the MP3s on his server.
  • 2) Many thanks to Rocker for purchase and Tim for digitisation. This does sound very much like the Duff Paddy tape, though starts and ends at a slightly different point. This may be due to progressive damage to the tape though, or a later generation copy
