This car look alot of fun. I like to have 1 or maybe I change my Smart for2 into something like this. :devil:

A team in France has built this 1-Series-based Dakar racetruck.
It is a fiberglass body, the unique chassis cradles BMW's stock 3-liter six-cylinder turbodiesel delivering 265 horsepower.
This Trio top speed is 185 km/h (115 mph) when it hits the trail in the 2008 Dakar rally.

Long before BMW even admitted considering the possibility of adding an X1 model in its range ?don?t worry, you?ll be hearing something from Carscoop soon enough?, somewhere in France, a guy named Pascal Boutet has been working like a French poodle on steroids developing a 1-Series hatch 4WD rally car dubbed ?Trio?.

Of course, underneath its 1-Series inspired fibreglass body, the ?Trio?, that was created to participate in the 2008 Dakar Rally, has very little in common with the compact bimmer. Measuring in at 4.2m in length and weighing 1.900 kg (approximately 4.190 lb) this monster 1-Series is powered by a stock 3.0-litre turbodiesel straight-6 BMW engine that delivers 265Hp. No word on acceleration figures but the monster 1 has a top speed of 185 km/h

+1 that does look like it would be fun once you get off the road, even if it has the body of a 1er.
