Top Gear quote - Cornwall
Discussion
Series 11 (summer 08) episode 5:
News: Jeremy reveals the SL Black, with a 6 L V12, the torque of which has to be limited to 1000 N•m (737 lb•ft); it is £100,000 cheaper than the less powerful SLR McLaren. James posits that Citroën is the only manufacturer which makes only good-looking cars, but is shot down when Richard reminds him of the Pluriel. They settle upon Vauxhall, partly on the basis of the new Agila. Hilary Benn's suggestion that higher fuel cost is a good idea leads to criticism. Richard complains that all his village's local services have been withdrawn and that a car is the only means of accessing the alternatives in other towns. Jeremy likens Gordon Brown to Stalin, saying he is restricting movement by raising fuel tax, and that ID cards and curfews are to follow. Councillor Peter Greenalls is lauded for having the entire Swindon speed camera system scrapped.
Is the one, its not unlikely Cornwall is mentioned in a different episode. (As above, the curfew was in Cornwall. Can't find a video on youtube or topgear.com though im afraid.)
