Hey everyone,
I'm trying to locate a clip where Jeremy was talking about how cars that can exceed 200mph need to have "200mph brakes, 200mph tires."
I'll paraphrase what I can remember:
"Why do you think this mercedes CL is limited to 155mph? To keep the German Green Party happy? No, because if it were to go 200mph, it would need 200mph brakes, 200mph tires ... and that would cost a fortune."
He was comparing the CL to another car, and I can't remember which. He didn't drive the CL, they just panned the camera across it as he did a voiceover. It was not the episode where he drives the CL65 and does the tug-of-war, nor the one where he and Richard compare it to a Nissan Pixo.
Does anyone know the episode?
Thanks!
