We’re talking about a v10 engine that can rev up to 8,000. Most cars are driven for over 200,000 kilometres and then you demand that the bearing shells should still hold up? It’s not as if the whole engine has to be taken out, it’s something that can be done on a lift. We’re not talking about a 120bhp 4-cylinder here for everyone. Otherwise you might find an engine like that in a Lamborghini, how many of these are driven more than 100.000? If you buy a car like this, you have to look after it properly. I have two V12 engines myself, do you think they are as easy to maintain as my Daily 6 cylinder?
Oh common, sreten daily his v10 and lent it out, he was two times at my place with the car and took me for a spin. That car was treated like garbage by the previous owner and he didn’t pull out the engine only give it a very big service and did every thing that’s possible with the engine in and it’s perfect reliable. Compare it to the B7 or the blown s65.
