Imagine: you drive your Audi TT in the puinpoeier. But you still have a project in the form of a Trabant in your shed. In Poland everything can, meet with King Sleeper!

The lovers of the Trabant will immediately see that the wheels are not correct, and that the exhaust is very strange, but that are the only things that are strictly necessary. If you hear any driveline in this car, the risk namely that your lower jaw from your desk hits. This is the most sexy Trabant ever.

The owner of this car namely a while ago, Audi Ur TT (Quattro, 225 hp) total loss. The powertrain, however, was still usable and was in his Trabant crammed. Including 1.8 T 20V and Quattro all-wheel drive. He tickled it a little bit up to 270 hp, she picked up some things from the interior and went to tinkering. The schedule was for the project came to a stand on a pizza box.

The result? A sprint of 15.5 seconds. From the 200 kilometers per hour, the sprint to 100 takes 4.5 seconds. The Trabant had to be considerably reinforced and thus weighs now 1120 kg (a standard Trabant comes out at slightly more than 600 kilograms). And think well, not that the owner is completely insane: he knew the brakes, the ABS and the ESP system also. In addition, Toyo T1R tires the necessary grip. The top speed is not yet reached with the project, but is of course well above 200 miles per hour. The average Civic will not win, so.

Also, Check out this video, but make sure your sound is soft because there is something wrong with the audio.
