Who needs tow trucks? BMW 3 series is transported in the back of a VAN in Romania

  • The video was captured in the city of Radauti in Romania on December 10
  • Ruben Costea was travelling when he saw the precarious arrangement in front
  • The BMW was only being held in place by the rear doors of the van 

This is the incredible moment a BMW 3 Series is transported sideways in the back of a van with its rear doors open.

The video, captured in the city of Radauti in north-east Romania, shows the white van travelling on a busy road.

Both of its rear doors are open and a silver BMW E46 is lodged in sideways, protruding at the back.

There are no ropes holding it in place, only the two rear doors preventing it from tumbling down on to the road. 

The clip was posted on Facebook by Ruben Costea on December 10 with the caption ‘Radauti 2019’.

It is not known if it was only the car’s body being transported or if the engine and seats were still attached.

Despite the precarious method, it appears the car is firmly lodged in place during the journey.

A BMW 3 Series is 14ft long which explains why it would not fit inside the boot of the van.
