Charlie takes the massive 27 litre V12 Tank Engine out of his Rover - one of Practical Performance Car Magazine's feature cars. It takes a Fork Lift truck, some tapping with a hammer and some engineering Ingenuity. Follow its progress in the magazine.

  • i want to see it running at full song on a track !! at the goodwood track maybe?:-D

  • @ROSCObadlad haha more like "whole engined"

  • Haha is more or less mid engined :)

  • this is, in my opinion ,an engineering master class ,i am just surprised there aint more videos of this fantastic car on youtube.

  • You think The engine will fit in a DeLorean?

  • @KensStang

    hes made tubular headers now due to heat build up at cabin. u have to be careful as big engines expand more so manifold must flex, the cast one has expansion joints.

  • looks like i was on the ball after reading the mag, new headers look great, i have never heard the car in person or seen it but i bet it will sound mental now! best get my £999 car done and meet you all at the pod in september

  • @benspeed1974 "Charlie ticks all the boxes for me when looking for a new leader for this country, he'd not f#ck about, VOTE CHARLIE!!!".

    I second that !

  • thats nowt, i reckon one of them big ship engines would sit sweetly in't back of the mk1 trannie..... y'know, them massive buggers with 30ft con rods...... i reckon demon tweets could supply some 4000ton coil springs..... anyway, charlie ticks all the boxes for me when looking for a new leader for this country, he'd not f#ck about, VOTE CHARLIE!!!

  • nice work charlie
