Gary Martins built his “M250d xDrive” at his company Grease Monkey Motor Garage in Centurion, South Africa. Gary started with a BMW 220d (F22) and removed the factory 2.0 L turbodiesel inline-four and drivetrain. Under the carbon fiber hood he installed a triple-turbocharged 3.0 L N57S diesel inline-six from a BMW X5 M50d. Gary also added a water/methanol injection system and nitrous system. DoubleApex reports the motor produces 560+ hp (435 kW) and 1000+ Nm of torque. The car competed with a RWD drivetrain last year before Gary swapped to an xDrive AWD drivetrain. The tremendous power is offset by BMW M5 F10 front brakes and M4 rear brakes.
