Video: Off-road racing in a VW van

22nd February 2021

Off-roading is an acquired skill that requires patience, dexterity and the right tools for the job… Or is it? If this Volkswagen T3 Syncro is anything to go by, then the answer is no. In fact, all you need is a willing mechanical victim, a suitable arena, and a great big pair of… knobbly tyres.

Watch as this brave driver pilots the highsided 4x4 around a muddy hillside, risking turnover time after time. Fjords, rolling jumps and steep descents prove no adversity to the crazy bus, nor its fearless driver. In fact, despite its awkward proportions, the T3 Syncro outperforms a number of its smaller Eastern counterparts. идти!
