www.dukevideo.co.uk has BTCC videos stretching back a few years, not sure whether they go back to 1987, but it's worth a look.

It will come up on eBay eventually, videos always do.

Quick question, are BTCC review dvds/videos good value? I've been wodering whether to buy any of them for a while and could do with the opinion of someone that has them.

"Does what it says on the box",if you like Touring Cars you should be happy with these .
I have most of the reviews on video and if you shop around,should find some bargains.I managed to get a few for a quid each over the years,mainly in the high street newsagents .
Seen some of the earlier reviews on DVD going for around a fiver.

I can reccomend them all. If like me you only got into the BTCC recently, every video is a great watch.

They will be pirate copies - VHS version recorded with a DVD burner. The official DVD releases only go back a few years, 2001/2002 maybe.

I've only been watching BTCC for this season and a bit of last season. You can get some of the videos cheaply on eBay, I might do that.

Probably your best bet ebay. I've spotted a few complete sets on there recently.


Well, I say I'm a recent fan, only for about 7 years lol!

If you've seen genuine DVDs for a fiver do tell us where as I wouldn't mind a copy myself. I've never seen an original VHS copy that cheap.

Granted, they are not easy to find but sometimes places like Smiths,MVC,tend to have a clearout of stuff they can't sell.
I've seen a few DVDs and videos going for silly money....a case of being in the right place.......

I've seen individual videos, but really it depends how far back I want videos from. If I spot a good deal with several videos, I would get it.

Complete sets? Again, it depends on the price. I can't afford to pay much more than £5 per video!

Pre-1988 Videos were produced by Hay Fisher rather than Barrie Hinchcliffe (BHP) and were not put together so well. It is not the same without old Murray doing the commentary.

I got my copies back at the end of the 1980s through a specialist motorsports video supplier but I have not seen many of them since.

The BHP ones are always on Ebay etc, so are quite easy to pick up.

Good luck with your search.

There are a number of post-1990 videos for sale on www.dukevideo.co.uk but they are about £10 each, which is too expensive, especially if I want more than two or three. eBay always has some of them, so I think that's the place to look.

I don't think I would want pre-1988 videos anyway, I'm not that old! Thanks for the advice!

I can't believe I gave mine away - about 3-4 years worth - a long time ago, along with the F3 season reviews......

It is indeed. Different pictures on the front sleeve compared to mine. Mine has the TWR Rovers, Jaguar and the Eggenberger Sierra.

I suspect it will hit 3 figures! The last one was around the 90s.
