Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Jeremy comes under sniper fire as he tests the Porsche Boxster S and the Mercedes SLK.
Our Take
The sniper gag is sillier than it sounds on paper, but Clarkson selling genuine panic while wringing out the Boxster and SLK makes it land. The road test itself is solid, honest stuff about two cars that were starting to feel dated. A tighter, funnier hour than usual, and the challenge segments don’t overstay their welcome. Worth a watch if you like the car reviews more than the stunts.
