Neue Klasse crash testing video

I ran across this video of BMW crash testing 1800 sedans in various ways. It seems so crude compared to today's testing. Also shows some assembly.

I also found this period video of the E9 which may have been posted here before.

Loved that test video. It must have been exciting working on developing those cars.

More Neue Klasse factory assembly video. Of course, our cars were made by Karmann, but the DNA is the same.

When I was 20, I worked in the Press shop at a Ford factory in Genk , Belgium. My brain has be rewired ever since.

And YouTube has offered me up another 1800 commercial. Quirky.

Funny is right, loved the simulated driving scene with the family as it is passed by the Volvo. And the guy in the lab coat! It must be fairly recent as they show a blue screen and the rear seats have retractable seatbelts.

No kidding, that is seriously hilarious. Definitely LOL
