    Raz called and asked me to help him with a Mercedes AMG GT R Twin test, I didn't think I would actually get to drive a GT R! To make the day even better, Sid (Sideway Sid) turned up in a friends Mercedes AMG SLS and joined in, you really couldn't make this up. I managed to film my own review here, I hope you enjoy it :-)

    Honestly Joe, how do you not have more subscribers? You really deserve them. This video quality... wow. I love watching all your videos. This is great once again 😀

      Thanks buddy, producing click bait shit videos guarantees subscribers, I'm too old and proud to do that so will always be a slow burner... Cheers for you support!

      Great video Joe and thanks for keeping it real as always. Don't need to create click bait and shit videos just for the sake of it to earn literally a few quid!

  • @edwardrhodes6284
    @edwardrhodes6284 Před 7 lety +3

    I was thinking to myself I wish Joe would tell us more detail about the car and the experience and then you summed it up nicely by saying that it was just too damn good for you to miss out on by filming/talking. That said it all to me. Superb.

    • @RemoveBeforeRace
      @RemoveBeforeRace Před 7 lety

      edward rhodes Perfection. If you want boring detail on both, I obliged with our version of the review with him 🤣

    Based on what I hear I'm so glad AMG have worked on their gearboxes. I heard their older gearboxes were the weak link in the older cars.

    Hey Joe, hope you're well. Great video, got to admit although I'm a massive BMW fan I would take this over anything they offer. What an absolute beast.

  • @slcncr
    @slcncr Před 7 lety

    No matter what anyone else says about the Colour Options for this Car. Yeah, the yellow is nice too.
    But this absolutely *stunning* green is definitely the best Choice for this amazing Car.
    AMG knew very well why they 1. developed this Monster on the Ring and 2. gave it this Colour called "Green Hell".
    Great Video Joe. You`ve got another Subscriber

  • @klariskb4497
    @klariskb4497 Před 7 lety

    After driving this car, what do you think of mercedes? These last generation of cars they are making are simply a big step up. Do you think BMW will keep up and when? For me, in the last 3-4 years mercedes is getting ahead of the competition, if bmw wants to keep up they need to come up with a proper sports car. M4 GTS and i8 are not enough.

  • @alanbutterfield8057
    @alanbutterfield8057 Před 7 lety

    Hi Joe, you should have plenty more chances to drive Tim's new Mercedes GTR when it arrives later this year so you can carry on your enjoyment of this super fast vehicle but I did notice as you are a big fella you looked a bit cramped or did you have more than enough room also did the harness restrict you from leaning over to find the glovebox for example. Also I do follow this guy and boy he has a massive car collection also his dad is a petrol head but yes both great guys like you who just love great cars. I did notice you did not giggle as much on this Vlog but you looked very focused not surprised with the price tag plus not your car. Regards Alan B

  • @MilesDrive
    @MilesDrive Před 7 lety +5

    wow! Tim will be itching to get his GTR....although not race spec, but still an awesome car. BMW need to learn a little from AMG?

    • @JoeAchilles1
