Top Gear, Series 19
[While working on the Rover James, a car made exclusively for the elderly people, Jeremy shows off his modified speedometer]
Richard:
Brilliant - so it only reads 20 even if they're doing 80 miles an hour.
Jeremy:
[correcting Richard] 115. [imitating an old woman] "I'm only doing 17 miles an hour," so they're happy. The people stuck behind, whose wives are in labour and they have meetings to get to, they're happy. Everybody wins.
Jeremy:
[voice over] I was also rather proud of my old-people-friendly rear fog light.
Jeremy:
This will be mounted in the car, this is the switch. So as soon as it starts a little bit of light drizzle, the elderly person turns on the rear fog light and then what happens round the back is… absolutely nothing at all.
