Err, sorry K but that is the H16 which was the early 60's? Still a bonkers motor though.
I'm trying to find a pic of the V16.
here is the V16.

I organised an AngleMog trip to Lotus cars today. The first few cars are EVs the Evija and the brown one has just done the Nuremburg Ring in 6min 24 sec being the third fastest road car based GT ever. It weighs 1400kg but of that 720kg is the battery that lasts 14 miles. There is a link here

The orange one is the road car same power but a range of c 250m. Just £2.1 million or so.

The last car is a classic with the Cosworth V8.

Apparently if Colin Chapman could fit in a race car he told the team to take 1 1/2 inches off the width. I know I wouldn't fit sadly.

Seems to me that only the Italians attempt to make an engine beautiful as well as functional. Nowadays when really good engines from the likes of say Merc are covered in ugly plastic, Ferrari still try to make a spectacle of theirs. With my car there even is a window in the rear bonnet so that you can see the engine though I think that went with the 488 onwards.

Love the look of this one XJ13 though not a great fan of the E but love the 3.8 saloons. Saw this one at Goodwood, not my pics though...
