  • It's road trip time! London to the Alps with skis and luggage, 1,052km in a day with the AMG GT R, let's go! After no trouble loading up the boot of the car including a pair of skis, let's hit the roads via the Eurotunnel down through France towards Megeve in the Alps. Do you think there's an AMG GT R out there doing more mileage than mine?
    Having bought this car as very much one that can be used for all purposes and to truly mile crunch across the continent, it seemed only appropriate that as the snow falls in the Alps to get back on the roads to get there and have a few ski days. The AMG GT R ends the day with 6,000km on the clock and this is only the start, more is coming, watch this space.

      You should make a live odometer on your page, for all cars and one special when you are traveling with plane. Think you can get to 200 000 in a year?

      19.6 mpg. My Xkr averaged 23mpg on a long trip with a heavy foot, but you have more power hence lower mpg.

  • @JeS-ii6yp

    You certainly made the right choice with the AMG GT R for the road trips you have planned. It is the perfect GT, trouble free and ready for anything.

    • @stubones
      @stubones 6 лет назад +4

      Apart from the 21mpg, it's a great GT. If the cost of fuel isn't an issue (which is likely for someone who can afford to own a car like this) then it's brilliant!

    • @michaelsieber98
      @michaelsieber98 6 лет назад +13

      The 21mpg is quite good. If you keep in mind what some normal cars use. Especially SUVs in America

    • @Pablomyers102
      @Pablomyers102 6 лет назад +7

      21mpg is amazing considering its a V8 near supercar level

    Hey shmee been a fan for the longest time, wanted to personally thank you! My father had a hemorrhagic stroke 2 days ago and I have been so devastated and been with him for 2 days straight, difficult to think or relax about anything else, but ur simple video brought me some mental relief. Thank you mate, keep up the good work.

    Genuinely happy that this year you are not uploading every day. Not because I don't love your videos, I watched every single video last year, but because it means you're focusing on yourself and other things you need to do. As a content creator I know how insane making a video twice a week is let alone a high quality informative video every single day! MASSIVE RESPECT TO YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE TEAM TIM!

    It is really crazy that car that powerful can be soooooo fuel efficient... 500 kilometers and 60 liters of fuel is equal to 12l/km or 19.6MPG...

    • @stephenboyce8100
      @stephenboyce8100 6 лет назад

      He said it was 64 litres for 500kms so 22mpg, thats pretty impressive, but i suspect he drove like a granny on the motorways.

      @willywillywillywillywilly 6 лет назад +1

      It’s not that good, man. I’d be impressed with 28mpg US if it was pure highway driving. Half that for fun driving, and half that again for track driving.

    • @marcog.3488
      @marcog.3488 6 лет назад

      Aldin Kajevic personally, that would be too much for me. But a Q5 is very comfortable and a great cruiser, so despite being that long of a road trip it shouldn’t be that bad right?

    Shmee, during summer, you should bring it in Romania to rip it on Transfagarasani Road. Super nice view and a hell of a beautiful twisty road, perfect for that car.
