I saw her at the PFA Rally some years ago with the original engines which sounded fine and I saw her at Oshkosh in 2001 when she had the BMW engines which sounded awful, like a couple of two-strokes. One of the above posts mentions Mercedes engines but I havent been able to follow that up. How do they sound?
(Could probably have got away with a couple of big turbo diesels from a truck).
