Once this was an ordinary Mercedes Sprinter 309 CDI, a performer without pretensions. Now, this is the equivalent of The Stoopjes after a few grams of Blue Crystal Meth.

In the New Zealand garage Dyno Worx was the zelfontbrander from the cabin demolished, and was replaced with a V8 Lexus. Including new drive shafts to the rear wheels and a custom exhaust system. Specs on that achtcilinder we have not, but that’s a pretty aggressive block is in this public transport operator to quickly becomes apparent. Jup, so be vans fun again.

A video with images of the construction, a burnout, and some aimless roar through the landscape of New Zealand, you can find on Autojunk.nl.
