290 km/h in a SLS AMG in Switzerland might set you back $1.1 million. Income & wealth based fines are very democratic and very very painful.
The flashing is not uniquely European, but daytime running lights and general LED usage are very popular or required by law.
Wondeful stuff, thick French accent included
Meh, I'm not a fan of the whine and driving style... I prefer this weird cigar sponsored thing with half the horsepower and twice the driving skill ;)
Beautiful, I'll second that JayHova
I disagree Michael.. I think it all started in Japan for two and a half reasons:
1. The thought that a car is a house-hold appliance in Japan, like freezers, these are often ordered in white.
2. Japanese tuners would not cover the white primer with their final vomit-orange or blue-lightning and flame patterns until…
I've never heard of skid-plate-racing before... now it's my favourite, it's freaking awesome, thank you!
Here's another redneck favourite, but I'm not sure if it is a sport.
Thank you for that follow up. Funny enough, I had a 2008 Touareg Altitude. Also in the EU, neither cars gave me any trouble, even replacing damaged parts wasn't crazy expensive. But the Touareg did eat tyres and fuel, unlike the Allroad.
I used to drive a 2.5 tdi when it first came out, what was up with the suspension?
It's actually quite a social setup, 3+3+luggage, not a very common layout. But it is hideous to look at. Cheap though :)
I love it!! never heard of it over on this side if the pond (l'europe) though..

Be aware, the Austrians have a nasty habbit of placing speedcamera's right…
It might be someone from the Gemballa family going all Jason Bourne on Krejcir.
Ok, here are a few that spring to mind instantly...
The rear seats of the "not so recent" Renault 16. You'll need a physics degree and the arms of a ballerina to flatten the lower part and strap/fold the upper part to the roof lining. A nice fun fact about this car; if you corner hard, the outer front door can release…
Great list. Here's a man who knows how to drive on the limit, the absolute limit.
With you, I agree on the subject.
Here in the UK they are already 2 -3 times the usual price now, great little reliable cars. http://www.autotrader.co.uk/used-cars/hond…
Although, I think this is a pretty nice improvement, I also do think they could have gone a few steps further (than some software tweaks) by adding the awesome infrared cams Audi uses on their new cars and optionally stick them all around like in the new S8 360 (stichted) camera system. This would be ideal for…
