More than meets the eye...DUDE!!!

Okay, leave it to the British...



Turns out, Dr. Colin Mayhew, an engineer working for BMW decided to build his own freaking Transformer out of Mini Cooper parts.

No shit.

He claims to have been overbuilding certain parts to the vehicle since its inception, with the intent of making a 20+ foot tall monster robotic roadside assistance android.

I'm not kidding, watch this thing stop a truck. CLICK HERE

You can follow the entire progress of his research from this simple website he put up a while back. Check out the night tracking video and tell me you don't damn near jump out of your seat!!!

Pardon the geek alert, but THIS is just way too cool to NOT tell you guys about!
