Summary

Jonny explains why the new series of Fifth Gear is going ahead without him. Also in this episode, the London-to-Brian run, the weirdness of veteran cars, pre-1905 restomodding, being snooty about Surrey, what constitutes "working well" when it comes to old Range Rovers, that Hyundai Grandeur concept car, going to a fancy dress party as one of Pet Shop Boys, and DSG peacocking in coastal towns. Plus, Richard almost crashes due to a wheel palming disaster and Jonny tells the story of his extremely rude office chair.
