I can only assume the British don’t take wars seriously

Right. Case in point: the Rolls Royce Merlin engine...

Yes, the Alvis Scimitar and its various derivatives used the Jag 4.2.

Just because you’re at war doesn’t mean you can’t appreaciate impeccable refinement and effortless mid-range torque...

It looks Spartan without the engine in it.

Also. When I get home I’ll be watching the restoration on this tank. It’s on Youtube.

Actually they do. The economics of same engine and many platforms is used the world over these days. Cheap engineering, cheap war.

VW have more recently taken it to its logical extreme with same engine in same platform to make many variants...

Yep, they do. They just go for quantity not quality:

You’ve got to check out some of Paul Donovan’s YouTube videos on this vehicle.

Going to the petrol station.
