Fastest Van in the world...and its a Mercedes!
Brabus Viano V8 from Mercedes
Here comes the fastest Van of the world
More power? that is everything that counts for Mercedes mercedes-Tuner Brabus. Therefore speed records go in beautiful regularity to the amateur handicraftsmen out of Bottrop. Whether fastest travel sedan, fastest combination or fastest jeep of the world? Speed records are as normal for Brabus as for other manufacturers recall actions.
Now a new record might go to Westphalia: Also the fastest Van of the world comes from now on from Brabus. Because the doing he specialists made, bring properly steam for the Mercedes Viano to dads good baby bomber powerfully on routes. Now it carries 426 HP and a maximum torque out of 621 Nm.
6.2 seconds to 100 km/h and with sufficiently approach even to speed 245!
For safe handling Brabus gives the Viano a suitable aerodynamics kit. In addition belonged among other things a new front spoiler with integrated fog headlights and xenon remote lights.
Inside it's fine Mastik leather and Alcantara, when desired also a Multimedia system with DVD and InterNet.
But speed is not everything? also the prices of Brabus is a record:
The Viano V8 costs 208,000 euro.

That would indicate a bad upbringing... you need to have "daddy - don't let that car beat us... " as the chorus from the junior squad..

Ahh but you are wrong. I have not looked through this entire thread so excuse me if it has already been brought up. Technicaly the Renualt Escpace F1 is the fastest van in the world A stripped out Escpace with Huge wheels and slicks with a Formula 1 V10 kicking out 800bhp roughly. 0-60 around 2.8 seconds top speed 210 (due to crap aerodynamics of a bus)
This is obviosuly not road legal and only 1 in existance, and where you would normally find the kids youd actualy find the V10 lump in the back seats!
I cant imagine me buying a MPV even if i had a big family!

This is cool stuff to look at. Looks like my parents van needs a turbocharger. And i hope that brabus only built one of those vans, considering it looks like crap, and it's a VAN! The torque is neccessary but not the horsepower.
