Crazy Czechs Build Tatra V8-Powered Trabant Drift Car, Will Sell It To You!

Not quite mad enough to qualify for FWTD, you say?
It has *five pedals*!

That's the maddest, most dangerous car ever made since the Australian arm of British Leyland thought it would be a fun wheeze to stick a 2.6 litre E-series engine in a Morris Marina.

The engine in the Trabi comes from a T613, am I right? Loved its predecessor; mate of mine used to have a Tatra T603 that he'd imported from the Czech Republic dirt cheap; a hell of an impressive vehicle.
