I was thinking the V6 sure we’ll in many lifted Explorers but the 3.0???? That’s from the Escapes

That thing looks oddly clean. Also it still amazes me when I see how the 3.0 is treated over there versus over here. The U.S. needs more 3.0 love.

That’s the whole point. The cheap junk yard V8s you get in the US are utterly absent in Europe. Even a not-German 6 cylinder engine is far from common.

The V6's were put in our more disposable cars and aren’t worth modifying due to how cheap V8's and fuel are.

Very true, off the top of my head i can only think of the hyundai coupe and ford cougar that have accessible v6s to someone doing a cheap build. As for v8s... maybe old scrapped jags (so ford again).

Peugeot/Citroën, Renault and Opel/Vauxhall have a few V6s as well. They’re just not overly common.

Ah yeah the vectra/signum had one and theyre somewhat findable. The peugeot one is super rare like you say.
