Hmmmm... I love a Beemer motor.... Imagine the new M850i x-Drive....... (drool)....

In the M850i xDrive, is a new 4.4-litre twin-turbocharged V8 motor that produces 390 kW and 750 Nm, which is said to propel the big coupe from standstill to 100 kph in a claimed 3.7 seconds. It is claimed to consumed an average of 10.0 L of petrol per 100 km.

I think this is an amazing motor for the Patrol! How are you going to handle the engine management?
