Thats the eco version...but if you could find another the same, and glued them together with some weld, smurfpoo (blutack) and no-nails, in a triumph stag styley kinda way....then you would have a V6

Hi Pete,
Is that a 2.2??
If it is, would be interested to know what the engine model is as I haven't seen that type of piston before.

Cheers
John
