There has been much discussion as to the general authenticity and manufacturer involvement of certain spy videos, and this is what I was referring to. Sure, I could be wrong, of course.
The M4 that's been testing near me drove the same stretch of road about 7 or 8 times in the space of 3-4 hours, going back and forth. No spy photos have appeared of that, so maybe they do it to be predictable, but not necessarily staged... or maybe it's just part of the testing routine.
