It is a rather striking cage in this BMW 1 Series is, because otherwise this would be the ultimate sleeper. What an insane idea, actually, to a 420 hp strong V8 in such a small hatchback to come in.

Even Manhart was never too bad to have a V8 in a 1 Series to stuff, but it seemed Sterkens Car’s still funny to this job once done.

And so, be done so that a 120i 2006 was stripped of its four-cylinder, and in return, a 4.0-liter V8 with 420 hp and a manual gearbox. Like on the picture show, the car has also the necessary laps on the Zandvoort circuit drove, and that is probably more fun than with this jam on the public road.

If you need to file to go riding in the M1 than that, because as you can see, this conversion is approved by the RDW. On the plate is neatly that there is a achtcilinder under the hood.

According to the seller, 12.000 km on the counter and you can get him after the payment of €44.950,- come and pick it up. Quite a lot of money actually for such a souped-up 1 Series, but you have a unique car for the door.
