Austin 1800 Landcrab…….. Ever heard of them over in the USA?

VR Landcrab

Not VR as in Virtual Reality, but as in Verkürzt Reihenmotor

A VW VR6 engine in a Landcrab. How about that eh? In a way it's kind of an obvious choice, big capacity six cylinder designed to fit in to small FWD engine bays.

Just seen this elsewhere, thought a share was worthy.

So if ever there was a true sleeper, this has to be one of them.

And listen to the engine note toward the end.

Yes, I believe that I could live with it.
