This qualifies as an engine in my view
Definitely!

The BB "flat 12" was derived from the highly successful F1 engine which took Niki Lauda to multiple victories.

Car magazine called it the Worlds best engine.

Now imagine if anyone replaced it with electric... eek
Replacing it with electric would be time to park it in the living room! You probably know there are some Teslarossas but personally I prefer this version :-)

Thanks Paul and Mike.
The interiors are quite distinct, the opposite of formulaic.
Was out in the BB today, now done 600 miles. One point I think I forgot to make about the steering is it seems lower geared than the other two - it isn't necessarily bad and perhaps was done for weighting reasons, but a little more movement of the arms required.
