Fantastic - I love VX220's. I was going to buy one last year to use as a daily runner but I made the mistake of listening to others opinion (who had never owned one) and decided against it.

Good, if true, as it'll be in HD there - I don't think History is in HD (certainly not on VM anyway).

Slightly OT, but I have been using mine as a daily driver since June 2013 and I haven't said wibble yet.

Fifth Gear is Back! - Series 25 Preview
Fourteen years since it first went on air we are delighted to announce that series 25 and 26 are now in full production! As usual, Tiff Needell and Vicki Butler-Henderson will anchor the show. In addition, Jonny Smith will continue to offer his own unique view of the car world. This time around we have three foreign ‘specials,’ from Poland, Romania and South Africa featuring, amongst other things, a supercar drive south of Cape Town, a night time rally through the packed streets of Warsaw, and a drive in the world’s most extreme off-roader. Tune in to see the results 5th March on The History Channel!

Thursday 9 April 9pm:
Tiff and motoring journalist Chris Harris put two track focused supercars through their paces - the Ferrari 458 Speciale and the Porsche 911 GT3. Tests involving agility, road manners and head to head racing will decide which is best.Jonny Smith visits the Ascari Circuit in Spain to take place in an unusual challenge. He must attempt to beat a lap time set by a very fast Audi RS7, which is completely automated.

Have to say, whilst TG wanders off with its often self indulgent tripe, such as last weeks Peugeot bashing, 5th Gear is becoming more and more watchable for me.

He put a picture up on twitter a few weeks back with Tiff, did wonder if he was making an appearance somewhere. Looks like quite a good series to be fair.

Tiff carries this show by himself. Not a fan of the rest.

Cheapskates wink I've got it on mine. I think the ITV4 rerun is a few weeks after the History channel broadcast
