Or use the forum's "subsilver2" theme, which allows us to look at pictures over the entire width of the screen and not just the central portion of it, six of those things are visible then without clicking the image. ;)

Please tell us you're fitting an Alfa V6. :D

I reckon the picture's "Photoshopped" and that it's a Diahatsu 3-pot diesel. The exhaust note will certainly be different and it should be more economical!

I think Mazda produced a nice compact V6 lump - but I don't think it was marketed in the UK

In the Xedos 6 and MX3, I believe.

The Suzuki Grand Vitara was also available with a 2.5L V6
