Guest Rsand85 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 diesel for torque, MAN v12 has 1750 bhp could be a slight task fitting that in a car however i like your thinking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nodalmighty Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 They are a bit crap really. Bmw m70 suffers oval bores, the jag is older than gods dog, merc engine just about fits in an s class. So, Aston is your only choice unless you fancy a w12 from a pheaton or audi a8 . Lyndon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Age isn't necessarily a bad thing Mercedes also do a range of modern v12s, they come in twin turbo flavour too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbloodyturbo Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 i'd be all over a merc v12 if it were a v12 i ws after. Big capacity and ripe for boost. The 90's one's are simple looking things too, the bmw v12's look to be a nightmare electronically, there was a time when i dreamt of a 5.0 v12 out of an 850 in an e30 325, youth makes you dumb like that i suppose.

Gaz6002 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 W12 diesel out of a Touareg? There was never a W12 in a Touareg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 There was never a W12 in a Touareg. I put V12 first then did a Google search which only shows a W12 Touareg. I thought it was V12. I stand corrected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stand corrected That was only a special edition, the engine you're talking about was from the Pheaton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rsand85 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 ok after much research really after an older (ish) merc or bmw v12 with decent hp and torque figures.this is just in idea at the moment but if i can get one there will be a nice audi 4.2l v8 for sale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Aston 6 ltr V12 is a beautiful engine It is, but its also a massive engine and a very old design by today's standards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 ok after much research really after an older (ish) merc or bmw v12 with decent hp and torque figures.this is just in idea at the moment but if i can get one there will be a nice audi 4.2l v8 for sale My weapon of choice would be a 5.5L Twin turbo lump from an SL600, 500BHP and 391 lbs/ft !!
