Default 5th gear logo

I did a quick search just to be sure as i dont often browse the 5th gear forum

why doesn't the 5th gear logo have a reverse gear?
or is it a 4 speed gearbox with reverse as the 5th gear?
or is it some sort of special racing box without 5th?
have they ever addressed this on the show?

It is because they have Fifth Gear without Top Gear, it creates a black hole that engulfs reverse. Otherwise it is a regular 5 speed manual.

Because, if Fifth Gear Logo had a reverse gear, it would look like a Sixth Gear Logo.

Followed by an almighty crash as a Bulgarian 32 tonne Lorry with a, dick head driver, no brakes and its speed governor disconnected hits the stupid sod up the arse at 60 MPH.
