that v12 should fit, as the engine bay is designed for a straight 6 and people have fitted v8s so V engines fit. Just a small question of getting hold of one lol. winx may have a few at work

I have read about this before.

would not mind taking it for a spin

Posted: **Fri Feb 20, 2009 5:57 pm**

That V12 is awsome lol. I love that Renault F1 Espace

Posted: **Fri Feb 20, 2009 7:01 pm**

I just got home and watched that video! I never thought I'd want a people carrier - but I WANT THAT!

Posted: **Sat Feb 21, 2009 12:30 am**

That Espace F1 was in Gran Turismo 2!

Imadgine the Traffic light GP suprises with that espace!!! People would just think it was just a horrible barryboy mobile with all show no go.

Lol, I LOVE that noise! Think I should put an F1 engine in my E30 next!

i reckon you should put a chevvy small block in it with twin turbo you can do it for less than swapping a that old jap engine in it

Actually V12 is quite a lot easier to fit in E30 than V8 because the V-angle is 90deg in V8 and 60deg in V12 so the V12, even though longer (but not much actually) is quite a lot narrower than V8..

Anyways, everything is possible, it's usually only question of money and time..
