        Normally aspirated V-12, so I reckon a Formula 1, or perhaps an Indy Car?

              I'm sure I once saw a dragster with a Griffon engine or something similar....

                    Now Now, -it's the correct term! Abnormal would be supercharged or turbocharged - although now loads of car engines have turbos - so maybe that's the new normal!

                      Off topic, but what did the poor Reliant Robin do to deserve its name being reversed? Nobody speaks of a Midget MG or a Minor Morris, so why does Reliant Cars' finest have to suffer in this way?

                          Sorry to hear that, but you're not the only one Andrew, many people call it a Robin Reliant.

                              Don't think it's Ferrari as they would normally have side draft Webers and that looks like it's supposed to have 12(?) SU type carbs.
