Escape a Heat 5 cop chase in story mode

How to unlock the Most Wanted achievement in Need for Speed Unbound - Definitive Guide

I got this achievement and "Escape Artist" before finishing the prologue in my A+ staring Supra. There are two methods of building heat:

1. Complete multiple street races within the same day/night cycle to build heat up to 5.
2. Initiate a police chase at any heat level and stay in the chase until it eventually ranks up to 5.

Now at heat 5 start a police chase either during a race or within the same police chase in step 2. I found the easiest way to escape the cops is head off-road into the countryside. If you have a helicopter above, just keep moving until it needs to refuel. Hide in the middle of a field away from roads and turn off the engine when parked. Wait long enough to escape and the achievement should pop.

Tip: I used "Kennys Test Track" (Northwest) to farm heat levels in relative safety, just going around the mud oval. Keep an eye on your health bar (bottom right) if you find it's getting low head to a gas station to repair.

In my video below I managed to go from Heat 1 to 5 and escape in one go without any repairs.

I escaped a Heat 5 police chase last night.... Did not get an achievement. Has this happened to anyone else?

Just in case anyone else is wondering like I was, unfortunately this does not unlock in online. So much for the easy escapes from Linkup.
