Dacia Duster with a new body kit

German tuner Prior Design has transformed the look of the Romanian Dacia Duster SUV with a new body kit.

The body kit is made of a cheap flexible material, a combination of plexiglass and Dura-Flex, which is suitable for easy application of paint. The car got slightly wider fenders that in combination with the bumper create openings like those in the DTM. The Kit also includes a new front splitter, sills and rear diffuser, all of which cost $ 3,516 (€ 2,999). An additional $ 350 (€ 299) is required for the rear spoiler.

The accessories will suit every Duster from the redesigned version from 2013 to newer ones. The car at the presentation has a lower suspension and is equipped with a new set of forged rims with wide tires.

While the Duster isn’t at the top when it comes to high-performance SUVs, it was nonetheless interesting to Prior Design as the base for their new project.

MANHART ER 800

From the Manhart workshop comes a high-performance sports car, the MANHART ER 800. This sports car is based on the Mercedes models AMG E 63 and E 63 S.

The car is painted in matte black as a typical MANHART finish. At the front there is a black grille with gold decorations. It is equipped with an adjustable air suspension that allows the vehicle height to be lowered by 20 or 30 mm using software adjustment.

Under the hood is a 4.0-liter biturbo V8 engine with 809 hp (595 kW) and 789 lb-ft (1070 Nm) of torque. Compared to the standard model which has 612 hp (450 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm) of torque, this is more than impressive. This performance is achieved thanks to the new intercooler, air intake and remapped ECU unit.

When it comes to braking and safe stopping, the car is equipped with a set of ceramic brakes with 405×38 mm discs. It rides on 21-inch rims with 255/30 ZR21 (front) and 295/25 ZR21 (rear) tires. Rims can be ordered in the color of your choice.
