Unbelievable Brabu

In this week's Autocar magazine here in the U.K. There is a feature on Brabus and apart from the current fantastic creations it mentions and shows a front end picture of a 126 saloon. The picture shows wheel arches formed to cover the 20inch wheels, ('so what'? I hear you USA dwellers say), but the big thing is the tuned 7.3 litre V12 under the bonnet, (That's spelt hood to you lot over there).
I was thinking about creating a copy of his first car, the manual 190 with the 500SEC engine, and there before my eyes is something even more mouth watering.
Keep it up Brabus, I cannot wait till they drop into my price range.
Regards, Chris.

Dear Cyberdrakon, I do not think it would scan very well but I have attached this link to the magazine webpage: http://www.autocarmagazine.co.uk
It shows a comparison test between a Viper and an AMG SL. You can get the issue sent to you by going into back issues and ordering it.By the way in another UK magazine, EVO, there is a feature on the 640 bhp Brabus SL, Their website is: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/front_evo_homepage/front_evo_homepage.php Have a good look at, All Hail Merc's Divine Powers
Regards, Chris.

But Edward, just think about it, it may have the 640 BHP engine in it!
I think I will contact the factory sometime and ask them if they have pictures and details of their conversions. They may be secretive but there is no harm in trying eh?
Regards, Chris.
