Bit of a shame, no return for the V10 engine then.

Even V8s are an endangered species…the Merc one was dropped at Euro 6.

Hope they’ve managed to couple it up to an oil pump that works. Maybe save them a fortune in replacing engines under warranty.

They’ll never live that one down will they, shame really as I’m sure other manufacturers have similar probs in the past.

I just have an image burned in to my brain of 15 odd engines on pallets at MAN Northampton.
