How many V6 2.8s were made. I think this must be a rare car

I have an element of 'M-styling' on my car, If that's a good enough reason for the manufacturers to adorn a 320 with the M badge, then its certainly a good enough reason for me..

The answer is NONE!

Some people do not seem to have a clue about their own cars, but one would think that this kind of basic thing would be obvious to the owner on lifting the bonnet - but perhaps this was never done!

I suppose that there are a lot of V6-engined cars around these days, so it is assumed that any six-cylinder engine is a V6 . . . .

This advert rings a bell, I'm sure it's been advertised before. I'm surprised it's not an M. There's quite often a 1.9 M on eBay :D

I may have been a comment from me, about 8 months ago I met a fellow z owner at the petrol station (where else would it have been :lol: ) he was new to the area and was selling his Fuji green 2.8 v6, I didn't bother correcting him, guess he never lifted the bonnet, I did post it on here though hence perhaps the vague recollection your having :lol:

seen loads of 1.9 m, there quite common :)

Worryingly Mike there is a photo with the bonnet open and the engine looks pretty straight to me.

This suggests that the owner cannot tell the difference even when looking at the engine! :dunce:

I hope he never tries DIY maintenance!
