OK. The deal is i got these pics in an uber manly office email being forwarded on. Amongst the slides was the engine bay pic of a W18, odd one out i guess. I know little about the 18/4 concept, just knew the engine existed once, thats all. Clue that the w18 is definatley different is the different dash through the rear post box window.
