When will more engines come to the F40?
Does anyone have any idea what new engines are coming soon? Here in the UK we still have just a 3 cylinder 118i or the range topping M135i and nothing in between! I'm hoping for a 125i with around 230hp...!!
Yet there are 116d, 118d & 120d... Why BMW are still pushing diesel engines I really dont know! I'm even wondering if they will leave the line up as is, and hope those wanting warmer engines will get into the new 2GC!! |

How is the engine mounted for the 118i? If it is transverse mounted that might explain the delay in releasing more petrol engines as the new F40 has a FWD drive train. My guess, I could be wrong.

Yeah surely all they would need to do is provide a slightly de-tuned version of the lump that's in the M135i (say with 200-240ps), and make it front wheel drive rather than X-Drive ?
