Can anyone help me please? I am looking for a copy of the original Henri Toivonen - His Rally Days video (or DVD copy). By this, i mean the one with Steve Rider doing the (very quiet)commentary, the badly dubbed engine noises and the fantastic 80's synth music.

I used to have the original VHS back in the early 90's but it wore out after many plays. This christmas i got the new DVD version, but i was horrified to discover that the commentaor had changed and so had the music. Ok, so you could hear what the commentator was saying and the engine noises were the correct ones for the car on screen. But for me the original music and Steve Rider's commentary were what made the video the fitting tirbute it was. The new DVD version lacks any emotion.

If anyone out there in PH land has a copy of the original recording, please let me know.

BTW if this thread breaks any PH rules then i am very sorry. I looked around for guidliens but couldnt see any.

It's a toss-up between TV, Film & Radio and General Motorsport. Given the theme, General Motorsport might be a little better.

OP

I have the original, it's not the best copy, was originally VHS but I copied it onto DVD a while ago.
It's back in the UK in my Motorsport collection, but I should be able to burn you a copy at the end of the month when I'm back home for a few days.

Send me your postal address through here and I'll sort it for you.

If you get one in the meantime please let me know.
