Default I know the reason for the end of the agreement.

The 2006 Bentley Silver Spur saloon (sedan for NA folks ).

The new Silver Spur with its 552 bhp turbocharged W-12 engine has an awesome top speed of 195 mph! BMW and Mercedes-Benz owners are NOT happy their top-end saloons are limited to 155 mph, so I wouldn't be surprised that the BMW 760iL and M-B S-Class saloons starting this Fall will have their limiters removed (or moved to 186 mph (300 km/h)) to better compete against the Silver Spur. I'm sure the V-12 powered BMW's and M-B's could come close to the 186 mph top speed.
