Is it repeated at all?

It's repeated on Saturday morning at 10am on Channel 5 :cool:

Yes it is the volvo 2.5t - I think its 5 cylindar. I am sure ill be corrected if its not lol!

I would never own a focus ST even though i think it looks pretty good in the right colour - ORANGE LOOKS WRONG!
I have always been a golf man and always will be regardless.

Back on topic . . . .

tiff is a total arsehole anyway. he really anoys me :sick: didnt even know how to turn the esp off on the audi tt.

(And I bet VBH sucks it long time too, all the creeping she does)

Yup, she can suck mine anyday - but I'd have to gag her from squealing like a 12 year old  :evil:

All reviews are subjective, and tiff cant relate to other people. AND the "tartan" cloth is a tribute to the original VW GTI, I would have thought he (or one of the trained mobkeys) would have known that.

The ST is a decent enough car, but when I had a drive it just seemd to be all bout the engine. When I drove the golf itws so much more balanced. (Also, I dont expect the Chav chumps gettin there hands on a GTI for a while, where as the ST will be in their price range any day now - You will hear them in halford asking where the Burberry paint is)

That turned into a bit of a rant, so in summery: Tiff = Arse. Golf STILL rules.

Trouble with Fifth Gear is they have to satisfy their commercial paymasters.  There "results" are nearly always biased toward the company that provides them with the most advertising revenue.  Similar things used to happen on that truely aweful program on Ch4 called "Drivel" . . . sorry, Driven!  :wink:  :grin:  And HTF did that Penny Mallory even get off the start line in a rally car, all the pathetic screaming she used to come out with.

Regarding Tiff, yes, he is a driving God, but he talks utter shyte.

I only watch Fifth Gear for it's entertainment factor, and not any factual information.
