A guy at work has a range rover with a v8 cosworth engine. I never knew that cosworth did a v8 engine. Is he right?

and 2010 Williams, Lotus, Virgin, HRT and the 2011 Williams, HRT and Virgin. Imagine one of those in a Rangey?

Not sure where the Cosworth bit comes in, but Khan Design were doing Cosworth RR's and Discovery's - that tells you everything you need to know really I.e. It's not a real Cosworth

The Cosworth DFV is probably the most famous engine ever made, I doubt your mate had one in his range rover, (probably some other engine which had been tuned by Cosworth), but saying 'I never knew cosworth did a v8 is like saying 'i never knew Ford made cars'. Or 'I never knew Apple made Ipods' hehe
