This is the what-the-truck moment police uncover a bonkers Bentley supercar that has been turned into the world's most luxurious tank.
The GBP-200,000-worth GT Coupe was unearthed during a raid on a garage workshop in St Petersburg, western Russia, by immigration police on 30th July looking for illegal workers.
Police video footage of the operation shows the hybrid motor parked up among weeds and bushes outside the garage.
Officers found 67 hybrid and heavily adapted vehicles on the site either with illegal registration documents or unroadworthy bodywork changes.
A police spokesperson said: "Given the nature of the site, special attention was paid to vehicles."
The Bentley seems to be a development of an earlier 'Ultratank' built from a Bentley by Russian petrolhead Konstantin Zarutskiy for his YouTube channel AcademeG.
His prototype, with higher tracks, could reach 81 mph, way below the Bentley's original 200mph but still faster than any other tracked vehicle.
Police say they found nine workers who were apparently employed illegally and now face deportation back to their homelands.
