Porsches are flat 6, not boxer IIRC?

Don't think a Boxer 6 has ever existed has it?!

Subaru have a six pot Legacy I believe, I know their fours are boxer, no idea if the six is though.

There is a difference between a horizontally opposed engine (flat) and a horizontally opposed, opposed piston engine (flat boxer). The difference is in the position of the pistons.

Pretty sure Porsches are not boxer engines.

Eta: Happy to be corrected though

I hate the OP.

I was previously very happy with my car history, but...

Now I need a V10 !!!

So, what's the cheapest (secondhand) V10?

Just to annoy the OP, I have had both flat fours, slant fours and inline fours.

[Notanotherturbo]

3- Charade Turbo
S4- st loads
Flat 4 - Legacy 4 Cam Turbo
V6 - Capri 3.0, GTA V6 Turbo and many others
S6 - Skyline GTR, Opel Monza,several BMWs
F6 - Subaru SVX
V8 - C43 AMG, 540i
No V4 (which everyone seems to have forgotten about) V10 or V12 though

Nice selection but have to ask why wouldn't you do v12?

[skyrover]

i4: Land Rover Discovery, land Rover 110, Vauxhall Omega, Fiat Cinquecento,
i5: Volvo 850, Volvo S70
i6: Jeep Grand Cherokee
V6: Mercury Cougar, Dodge intrepid
V8: Toyota Celsior, Ford LTD, Land Rover 110

So in order of quantity it would be,

i4 = 4
V8 = 3
V6 = 2
i5 = 2
i6 = 1

(Fingers in ears) Can't hear you! LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

[ModernAndy]

Driven virtually all up to 12 cylinders including W8's, W12's, flats, boxers, turbo, twin turbo, supercharged, V10, 3 cylinder, 5 cylinder,diesel 4's 5's 6's 8's, hybrid, range extender, fully electric (inc. Tesla Roadster!) but never truly owned most of them. Will have loads of the above in my underground garage one day I'm sure except the diesels...

Single: Vespa 125 Primavera

Never had a 5 and probably never will. There has to be a V8 in my life soon, and I've always fancied a Jaguar XJ-S V12
A v10 might be nice, but I'd rather it was a Bristol Fighter than a BMW or Viper. Are there any others?

I did once work on a fishing trawler with a 9 cylinder engine, if that counts.

Not a lack of desire, more a lack of longevity.
