I've always liked the sound of the Tivo but don't you have to pay £10 a month or a huge one-off fee to get the programme guide and all the features that depend on it? And don't they only have a single analogue tuner?
My parents have a Thompson DHD4000 which is far from perfect, but the EPG is free and it can record two Freeview channels at once (except when you record two programmes on one channel back-to-back and it overlaps them). I've been planning to get a PVR for myself at some point but I'd ideally like one with three Freeview tuners and a way to extract the video to a computer.
