That Merc did a proper job! I gave up after that, does it get any more interesting?

Thought the location was familiar as that Merc clip has been going round Twitter.

Lots of the same old pops & farts as is the current way, but also a wider range of cars inc. old Americana and LM002. Also a Z3M v. nearly doing a Merc.

I really hate the noise golf R and a45s make with a passion. No doubt the new 135 or 140 or whatever it is now with the fourparper probably sounds the same

you would have hated mine even more, the AMG Dynamic and performance packs increase the amounts of farts and the volume and the performance box makes it even louder
the new A45s complies with the recently updates and much stricter noise regulations and sounds naff IMO, I believe valve bypasses are now banned

That might just be the most stupid crash Iโve ever seen. Man does high speed run, realises he doesnโt have enough space to stop, crashes.

Yup, why would you not check before you run?
Not me;

They're not banned for OEM, but they are getting a bit more complex to homologate, you have to account for the speed, rpm, acceleration etc.
