The lap time of nine minutes 58 seconds, beats the benchmark time set by TV presenter and professional motor racing driver Sabine Schmitz, of 10 minutes and eight seconds, in 2005.
The production-standard Volkswagen Transporter was supplied by Northgate Vehicle Hire, the U.K.'s largest van rental company, and is powered by the mid-range 148bhp diesel engine.
The attempt, filmed on home soil for Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, set out to beat the 10-minute barrier and the time set by Schmitz on the same track 13 years ago.
