Finnegan and Freiburger are back. It's basically four hours of Roadkill, except they can't call it Roadkill and because it's just their channels, they can acknowledge the film crew, too. Finnegan bought the Rotsun.
Part 1 on Finnegans channel - 2hr 20mins - getting the car, prepping it (including removing the Roadkill decals) going and getting on the road, and doing more miles in this trip than the car has done, period, in it's time at Roadkill
Part 2 on Davids channel - continuation of road trip, seeing how far they can get.
Standard Roadkill shenanigans ensue.

It's absolute quality - imagine Roadkill but without the Big Corpo Management sheen.
Same camera crew/editors too for the most part so it's basically exactly what you want from a potential revival.

It popped up on my YouTube the other day, huge fan of them and roadkill, but 2.5h looked a significant time investment so haven’t got round to watching it yet.

Imagine a Directors Cut of Roadkill. But like, a *good* directors cut, not some shit with lots of pointless extra filler.
It's very much worth it.

Even though its on non-UK roads, its interesting to hear he thinks it rides better than the .1 generation which was a complaint from owners.
Leichtbau package is pretty pricey for the road going version, but I do love that green colour.

Not a YouTube but a post for benefit of sj. I imagine this in a galaxy is fun but also the hardest you’ll ever work to finish last

This was an interesting watch (at least, if a passing interest in the RS). I've also been watching the follow up with Rickaaaaayyyy from REPerformance. Mad how difficult parts are to get now, but no suprise given the rarity....can't help feeling that's the real reason the guy left it to rot. Doesn't strike me as the kind of person who lives on the breadline
