I think it's a Brazilian model, the Veraneio, completely different styling to the squarer US one
Veraneio is a Suburban-style estate/wagon, the double cabs are model C-1414.Meridius said:
Volkswagen Teramont.
But less the car I am interested in and more the engine. I thought the VW VR6 was long gone but no, for the Chinese market they are available with a 2.5l VR6 turbo, 295hp and 369lb/ft.

In the early 2000s, the Swiss market got a supercharged VR6 in the Seat Leon.I have no idea why it was only ever sold in Switzerland, the engineering was done by Abt but sold officially through the VAG network as a specific model in the lineup.

I'm sure I read in a car mag - CAR, or Autocar - that these were very poorly put together and the fit and finish were pretty rough. They had a sort of mini-review of the red one i think.As someone else said, this pretty much kept Bentley in business thanks to mega cash for these little projects.
