Creator: dafaq. Title: How Did Audi Terrorise Europe? Metadata upload date: October 10, 2026; not an incident date.

Capture: metadata, thumbnail, complete automatic-caption text, 63.5-second AV1 video-only stream and sampled frames recovered. Audio and combined-format download requests returned HTTP 403. Original silent video is retained privately and is not presented as a complete recording. Article uses the public YouTube player and a direct viewing fallback. Footage/overlays have not been authenticated to particular crimes.

Claim checks:
- Almost 500 machines blown up in 2022: 496 attempted/completed cases; only 413 involved an actual explosion and 298 yielded cash (BKA).
- Gas as general 2022 pattern: misleading; BKA records 399 cases involving solid explosives.
- Exclusively Dutch gangs: overbroad. BKA identified 128 suspects, including German nationals. Suspect statistics are not convictions or the composition of all unsolved cases.
- Dutch security displaced attacks: supported as a contributing explanation by BKA/Reuters, not proof every Dutch ATM was bomb-proof.
- Audi RS6 involvement: supported in a specific June 2024 police-briefing report. No national Audi share established.
- Near-universal Audi use / wholesale switch from BMW and Mercedes after crashes / universal performance claims: not established in the reviewed sources.
- Manufacturer complicity: no evidence cited; the headline is the creator’s rhetoric, not PBC’s finding.
