Know the feeling - we get Dave if weather conditions are perfect, and I've been up and polished the aerial! We certainly don't get Dave +1

There's also a Fifth Gear review I've got somewhere on the PVR - also appeared on Dave when I wasn't expecting it, so recorded it on Dave + 1

Thanks! I've had a ZT 190+ for a few years, which has been a great (and reliable) car, but it's getting a little old & high mileage, so I'm thinking about replacing it. I haven't made any firm decisions yet, but a ZT260 is certainly a candidate. I came across this site yesterday and found it to be a great source of information on the ZT260.
My wife will take some convincing though - she thinks the worst thing about the ZT190 is the fuel consumption, so that's not going to help the case for a ZT260.
To be honest, I've had both, and if driven enthusiastically the 190 MPG is not massively above the 260 as you're working it harder (or maybe that's my driving)

I know Steve Childs owns the TG car.....I assume the Fifth Gear the same car with different plates...?
