jonny-5 0 Posted August 22, 2006 I once heard of a transit van where someone had cut a hole in the rear floor plan and stuck in a Honda black bird engine! They even painted on some brown paint to look like rust. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted August 22, 2006 would that not be a bit slow tho................transits even with holes cut in them ain't exactly lightweights Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dinkus 10 Posted August 23, 2006 I think you will find that thisis the ultimate street sleeper :lol: rofl - the only giveaway is the XJ220 wheels, but man that's funny! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Man that's crazy! I take it thay've taken the best bits from a wrecked xj220 and stuffed it in the transit? Awesome idea!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Yeah its basically a transit body stuck on top of an xj220 running gear! Its mental! Apparently all the 'White van man' stuff inside like newspapers, crisp packets, drink bottles etc is all stuck there for effect :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted August 23, 2006 There is a good sleeper on the fiesta zetec-s owners club as well Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dub envy 0 Posted August 23, 2006 I've got to say that my Polo amuses the heel out of me... M3 owners dont expect an old polo with fluffy dice, cow seat covers, and whitewall tyres to keep up with them!!! That tranny is nuts. Reminds me of my Citroen Dispatch work van... actually, no it doesnt. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4stud 0 Posted August 23, 2006 Followed one of these once, untill we got on the motorway. It looked the same but had a 3.5 rover v8 in it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 24, 2006 Loving the Escort, even the steels! Excellent install too 8) The Van is nuts and probably what instigated Clarkson's comment on White vans always being on your tail no matter what speed you're doing :lol: Seems a lot of folk are into being the 'under dog' these days. Maybe folk are tiring of tacky in your face hatches like the VXR Astra.....subtlety with a big kick is the way forward ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corozin 0 Posted August 24, 2006 This is a regular runner at the Gurston Down Hillclimb - it's road legal. Underneath the bonnet... upgraded Lancia Integrale engine. Makes about 350bhp, in a car weighing about the same as an Elise Trust me - it's quick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted August 24, 2006 Does anyone remember that Lancia Y10 project someone was doing with the Integrale engune and running gear? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 25, 2006 Yeah but is that weight before or after the conversion? Before I suspect. Bet it's over a tonne now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
