5th Gear tested the V50 T5 AWD this series but VB-H didn't like it very much, basically because it wouldn't drift on command.

Thanks Mark

I seem to remember Clarkson throwing one around a track - after taking the traction control off. At the end of the review he drove to the end of the road, indicated left and turned right!. For some reason I thought he had been testing the T5 - must be my age!!!!!
