Heads Up - Monday 6th Nov, Fifth Gear - Litcho's T25 on test
Just spotted this in a TV guide I'm preparing. I know the show has got sh!tter than an incontinent scat fetishist with presenters with as much charisma as wood lice, but it will be great to see the ultimate Impreza. I do hope they let Tiff drive it and not the squealing plumby mummy stumpy munter, and they simply have to keep that new piece of 3x2 away from it.
Monday 6th Nov at 8pm.
Before anyone asks, I don't know when it's repeated.

sh!tter than an incontinent scat fetishist
What's the betting that squeeling munter girl gets to drive it, as she did the litcho forester in a previous episode!
I've entered the video competition btw, with a film of me at the start of the nurby last month. When I win, I'll have no bad mouthing my excellent FIFTH GEAR, as I'll be presenting it

Forgot Plato was still on it, as I think I've seen about 4 1/2 minutes of the new series. It's got so bad I simply don't bother, and when I've tried to I fall asleep. Glad they've got Plato testing the T25 though as it will at least show the car doing it's job well, even if he is a bit bland as a presenter.
Are they aware of the audience reaction to this series

So is the T25 the prize car this week in the competition?
Should be ok with Plato behind the wheel which is a little surprise as Vicky loves all things Subaru (except the potato faced owners of course)

Its been that bad you almost wonder whether they actually want their contract renewed? I think Tiff and Tom are quality but you could edit the episodes down to ten minutes max now.
The fanboys at final gear have been giving a kicking... http://forums.finalgear.com/showthread.php?t=13904
and its been getting a shoe'ing over here too... Digital Spy Forums - Fifth Gear With Tim Lovejoy.
Not filled with confidence about the forthcoming Litchfield review... they'll probably bring in Plato's mum to drive it or something.

Those other forums also think, know, it's Poo
To save paying their redundancy next year
why don't they end it like a Soap Drama, have an Aircraft fall out of the Sky and wipe them all out nowing 5th Gear it would miss though Tony

Is it just me or does 40k seem a tad high for what will essentially be used as a track car/second car?
A Lotus Elise and a honda typeR engine conversion can be had for circa 16k and would produce similar 0-60 0-100 times quoted above and be a better car for tracking in.
Think I'd rather put another 5k to the bill and get a 993 turbo.
