The road trip continues, as does time on the snow with my AMG GT R! Kicking off with a few snowy donuts, it's a long and eventual voyage to Frankfurt taking me via central Geneva, the supercars at Perego Cars, an amazing photo location, a car on fire at the side of the motorway, and then horrendous weather on the Autobahns. Safe to say it was a more intense day than I anticipated!
Tim that is one angry sounding engine. The car on fire Looked like a people carrier possibly a Vauxhall Zafira they had a problem of Fires starting in the glove box area.
Shmee take it to Portugal, for sure, do the Algarve track, there is not a better track to explore your car, have fun, do ridiculous speeds and pretty safe in terms of traffic sensibility and runaway and that will not destroy your tires and brakes (maybe paul richard)
I agree on how stressful long-distance drives are in bad weather. It can really take the fun out. I really love that you're not afraid to drive the GT R and put the miles on it.
I think your completely correct to use it to it's full potential and use it as much as possible, at the end of the day its been built by people who know what their doing and who have been in the game for a long time so it shouldn't let you down. It's also your car that you've worked hard to pay for, so use it how you see fit, if people have a problem with that - tough. They should buy their own.
There's this dude that owns a 2014 Audi RS6(by his intelligence it's 2016 lol), and dude put like 35k kilometers on it. He lives a few streets away from me. If I were to own a car like that or GTR, it would be driven to it's potential, which is the maximum. I know Croatia is a quite poor country and he doesn't want to drive it much but then he doesn't deserve it. It doesn't matter what car we all own, we should drive it to the max. Cars are meant to be driven not to be in a goddamn garage for most of it's time. Like, if he's gonna own it, then he should drive it all the time. I'm glad that people in my country don't give a flying fuck which car people drive here. Both of these cars are great daily drivers. :)
Love how you drive your car without a care in the world about the mileage, hate them people who hide their fancy cars in the garage to keep the mileage low, waste of money and pointless. Keep up the amazing videos💙!
Thanks for the little moments like that under the bridges... I find that sort of thing interesting... they make the video's just that little bit special. Cheers.
You could have click bated the heck out of that burning car, but you did not. And for that, I say well done. Keep up the great content, and thanks for staying true to your roots.
Honestly, I prefer driving in snow vs the rain. The rain makes it hard to see while the snow is still clear and you just have to be careful and not slip. But they both have their pros and cons.
The parking assist leds above the rear window lighting up as you were backing into your parking spot was pretty cool, never seen that before on any car. Glad to see your enjoying that car to the fullest.
This was a pleasure to watch! It reminds me of driving from Miami to Chicago in December in my old clk500. You go from 90 heat, to rain, to snow. The last time, I hit Atlanta in a snowstorm on summer tires haha I love to watch you bond with the AMG; all the way down to the parking space marked #67 😃
I absolutely support that you drive this car Buying this and having it still standing in a garage is just dumb and all those people who do that ain‘t real carenthusiasts because a real one couldn’t let this stand around in his garage I mean hey it’s a german car it has to stand through that it’s made for it Greatings from Germany 👋🏻
I drove in similar conditions (dark and raining) 7 hrs from Munich to the north not too long ago. Yes, that is exhausting, much more than going twice the speed when it is dry and sunny.
Beautiful car. When I was your age I would load the 1979 BMW and Drive from San Francisco to Lake Tahoe for skiing. I was a terrible skier but the driving was awesome. Later I made many ten hour shifts driving on snow and ice as a Reno cabbie, front wheel drive. I got so I could pass Porsches and jeeps on snowy roads like they were standing still. Back then the car didn't do so much to help.
Hey Tim, be careful using TC, the constant turning on the brakes makes the disks hot and in winter conditions could cause a slight to fatal cracks in them. I drive C class and despite the fact I cant fully turn it off during driving it feels more fun and disk friendly! Nice GTR you got there, enjoy!
@Shmee150 I don't know how Mercedes has not sponsored this video. I fell in love with your review of the GT R. Ive never really paid this car too much thought but after watching your vid I am looking for a AMG Gtr on autotrader..wow
I did 500 miles to Scotland a couple of times and the last trip was in terentral downpour and it really does take it out of you. My steering kept going light as I was aqua planing on the motorway and I passed a car that had flipped on its roof.
Of course you have to visit Finland too with GT R, specially Lapland. And yea, you're right when driving on bad conditions. It is exhausting. I drove 1660km few years back with 3h sleep on the way, and the weather was as bad to whole time. Not the most enjoyable drive.
Signed up for your channel yesterday. Been looking at your videos for a while now, and they make me happy :) Keep it up. P.S. Did someone ever mention you look like a younger version of our King? Greetings from Holland! Luc
Roadtrip suggestion: Go through Denmark to Sweden -> Norway -> three country-cairn (finland-sweden-norway border) -> then probably drive through finland and maybe take a ferry to germany if you dont mind driving through sweden again.
I have to say these videos have come up on my recommended and I just love the GTR Thanks you so much Shmee150 can we have some more videos with the AMG GTR roadster please keep up the amazing work
Yeah, you should go to Portugal. Search for "Douro Portugal" it has some of the most beautiful roads on earth. That would be a sick trip. Full of twisty roads where all you see are vineyards and the river (the road follows up the river)...
your good with the AMG GT-R, treating how its meant to be treated not driving around 30mph zones in central london like most supercar owners do probably not realising how much capability their cars have :-)
I remember seeing a car on fire next to the Autobahn many years ago.. I still remember that the color of the car was yellow, as it made a big impression on me.
love your attitude towards driving your cars in snow! thats what they are built for! drive them anywhere you want! cheers from the german schneemobil crew! ... by the way... is that popcorn on your stomach in geneva? :D
Just before Christmas I went to the airport to collect my cousin who was visiting and coming back about 12:30 there was a robbery in a supermarket and they burned a couple of cars sideways in the motorway to block police pursuit, We missed wetting stuck by 10 or so minutes.

Shmee150 what year is your car? I love my SL 500 94. I still want something newer. What a bitchen ride!!
Tim that is one angry sounding engine. The car on fire Looked like a people carrier possibly a Vauxhall Zafira they had a problem of Fires starting in the glove box area.
That was one hot Minivan
Shmee take it to Portugal, for sure, do the Algarve track, there is not a better track to explore your car, have fun, do ridiculous speeds and pretty safe in terms of traffic sensibility and runaway and that will not destroy your tires and brakes (maybe paul richard)
It was a lovely C4 Picasso with it's well known €4 1.6 HDI
you are a lot easier to listen to than the americans. you are more articulate and refined. kudos.
Let's be honest to be more articulate than an American doesn't take much lol 😆 but I completely agree love this channel
I agree on how stressful long-distance drives are in bad weather. It can really take the fun out. I really love that you're not afraid to drive the GT R and put the miles on it.
I'm very impressed that you stayed true to the vlog's integrity and did not give us click-bait about the burning car. 10/10

Shmee: ”Now it’s all been very, very salted”
GTR: Mah heart, mah soul..
Your VLOG'S are million times better than vehicle virgins!!!
You can't have enough snow!
What a car. Absolutely love it. You deserve a break from filming Tim. You work hard enough
Thanks for the little moments like that under the bridges... I find that sort of thing interesting... they make the video's just that little bit special. Cheers.
Schnee150 ❄️❄️❄️
Love your road trips ;)
That exhaust note and the downshift crackles sounds sooooo freakin' amazing!
You could have click bated the heck out of that burning car, but you did not. And for that, I say well done. Keep up the great content, and thanks for staying true to your roots.
Great video, it's always nice seeing these types of cars really being used.
You just had your Logan Paul moment (Burning Car), But u handled it like a boss!!!!
The best cars in the world make history- and I think you're making history schmee 150!
So fun to watch, love your videos!
*sees/films a MASSIVE fire from a vehicle on the motorway*//*doesn't do any clickbait*
shmee, you truly are a man of honour
Honestly, I prefer driving in snow vs the rain. The rain makes it hard to see while the snow is still clear and you just have to be careful and not slip. But they both have their pros and cons.
It's the Shmee AMG GTR channel.
Strange seeing that clock made from plants in Geneva, I remember visiting in June 2005 when they were making it. Happy memories...
Cool video of the car in the snow, awesome
The Shnoeemobile is doing great out there Tim. Glad you are enjoying it so much.
The parking assist leds above the rear window lighting up as you were backing into your parking spot was pretty cool, never seen that before on any car. Glad to see your enjoying that car to the fullest.
Shmee absolutely loves this amg GTR...!!
always nice to watch a video without some big news being announced. Solid content!
Nice 👍 Road-trip so cool 😎 to see the AMG
This was a pleasure to watch! It reminds me of driving from Miami to Chicago in December in my old clk500. You go from 90 heat, to rain, to snow. The last time, I hit Atlanta in a snowstorm on summer tires haha I love to watch you bond with the AMG; all the way down to the parking space marked #67 😃
Enjoyed riding along with you in the video. Cool stuff.
I enjoyed every second .. nice car enjoy Tim
great video Shmee, love that car.
The doughnuts shot was awesome! Keep up the great work as always!
I love the way you drive this beast everyday. 🙏🏽❤
Yessssss here so early im glad to be!!! Awesome video bro.. love it! Thanks Tim!
I absolutely support that you drive this car
Buying this and having it still standing in a garage is just dumb and all those people who do that ain‘t real carenthusiasts because a real one couldn’t let this stand around in his garage
I mean hey it’s a german car it has to stand through that it’s made for it

As I'm typing this I'm in the intro. But I know this will be an awesome vid cuz u made the vid tim!
Thanks for the support!
My favorite RUclipsr
Hey Tim, be careful using TC, the constant turning on the brakes makes the disks hot and in winter conditions could cause a slight to fatal cracks in them. I drive C class and despite the fact I cant fully turn it off during driving it feels more fun and disk friendly! Nice GTR you got there, enjoy!
Great video Tim! :) Löv from Sweden !
@Shmee150 I don't know how Mercedes has not sponsored this video. I fell in love with your review of the GT R. Ive never really paid this car too much thought but after watching your vid I am looking for a AMG Gtr on autotrader..wow
Mach schnell! Dude you are hilarious in your sneemobile!
Hay man the is one lovely gtr and the way ur freind wrapped the car man that was quality love watching Ur vblog u always show the best thanks!
Is it strange to say that the AMG GT R is currently your favorite car Tim? Love the enthusiasm btw.
Loving the content dude!🙂🙂
Lovely scenery in Megeve. Already miss my journey there and Chamonix one month ago.
Let's us know if you will came to Portugal in the near future. 👍
It’s awesome seeing those mustangs with those super cars
Wow that AMG GTR does have a well and truly split personality
Car manufacturers should go into collaboration with Waze for their navigation systems
Go to Norway or Finland this summer!! Btw is Ben travelling with you?
Nope, I traveled alone.
Shmee! my man, your the greatest always so happy
The stealthy beast looks really good in snow!
enjoyed that drive i did :)
thanks for actually using your AMG GTR! :D
Loving the gtr content so a cool car and verry good sounds 🔥
Smashing video, making me jealous of that merc . Can not wait for the next ;)
Ah Tim, not a single skiing minute! I know you wanted to relax but you could squeeze in just one run :) Anyway, fun travel vlog!
I did 500 miles to Scotland a couple of times and the last trip was in terentral downpour and it really does take it out of you. My steering kept going light as I was aqua planing on the motorway and I passed a car that had flipped on its roof.
Drive the entire coast of Norway in summer, all the way to north cape. It is amazing with the nature and ferries.
Of course you have to visit Finland too with GT R, specially Lapland. And yea, you're right when driving on bad conditions. It is exhausting. I drove 1660km few years back with 3h sleep on the way, and the weather was as bad to whole time. Not the most enjoyable drive.
indeed, sounds great
At 15:03 shmee looks very shocked. That’s funny haha
Excellent video, really varied content, keep it up
Balkan trip !! 👌🏻
Signed up for your channel yesterday. Been looking at your videos for a while now, and they make me happy :) Keep it up.

Shit, that car was scary, just a reminder that things can go seriously wrong very quickly, stay safe Tim!
Shmeeski...exhaust is sounding even better as the miles pile on.
Yeah, you should go to Portugal. Search for "Douro Portugal" it has some of the most beautiful roads on earth. That would be a sick trip. Full of twisty roads where all you see are vineyards and the river (the road follows up the river)...
Your McLaren highspeed Autobahn section is part of my daily commute :D
your good with the AMG GT-R, treating how its meant to be treated not driving around 30mph zones in central london like most supercar owners do probably not realising how much capability their cars have :-)
Tim will u be taking the Schneemobil on the Stelvio Pass when it opens ?
Hopefully :)
Hello from Australia, love the your videos, the AMG and the donuts haha.
This should be called "The Wonderful Adventures of Shmee"
I remember seeing a car on fire next to the Autobahn many years ago.. I still remember that the color of the car was yellow, as it made a big impression on me.
Morocco in the GT-R would be quite fun, Harry did that trip in a Testarossa. What a Legend.
you should totally start your video with "hi everyone, it's Shmee!"
Vert nice vidéo as usual! You still got the break in period notification sticked on the windscreen !
Just a very nice guy very enjoyable..
Looking forward to more drives in the AMG-GTR
Please, please come to Portugal! There´s nothing like driving in the Douro Valley! Cheers
Best sounding Mercedes car ever!
Wait until you hear the revs under the bridge in this video!
Rodrigo Mota agreed best car ever made
That car on fire was a perfect attention seeking thumbnail for some views, thankfully Tim has a brain and a heart
love your attitude towards driving your cars in snow! thats what they are built for! drive them anywhere you want! cheers from the german schneemobil crew! ... by the way... is that popcorn on your stomach in geneva? :D
I think a roadtrip to spain/Portugal/Morocco would be amazing
Nice video as always Tim
Go to norway and go to a place called nordkap, the northest place you can get on land! Beautiful place with the northern green lights
Do you feather the breaks while going down hill. To be aware of the ice and its slippery potential. To see if its a gotten worse.
I think going to Scandinavia with the GTR would be very cool
Best AMG GT R
what a fabulous car.
AMG GTR 💓
Brilliant as always, regards, Richard U.K
Just before Christmas I went to the airport to collect my cousin who was visiting and coming back about 12:30 there was a robbery in a supermarket and they burned a couple of cars sideways in the motorway to block police pursuit, We missed wetting stuck by 10 or so minutes.
Yes!! Please come to portugal!
