Vagabund Moto has just unveiled its newest project car. Looking to translate its Russian 4×4 Lada Niva into a German luxury sports car, the team has created the Vagabund Moto BMW M850i.

Setting out to do something different than the number of stanced M8s online, they incorporated the Lada’s gloss-gray wrap job with other additions like modified yellow daytime running lights, HRE 305M wheels, a custom roof rack, a Remus exhaust system, and PIAA spotlights. The reason an M8 was not used was due to the M8’s carbon roof which could not accommodate the custom cargo-box battery system.

Fans of Vegabund Moto can check out the photo gallery above for all the angles of the BMW M850i.
