VR6Rich 3 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 I guess its a mistake or maybe a deliberate one. Its been plastered all over the internet since inters already though. Link to post Share on other sites

VR6Rich 3 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 LOL that picture is off the uk-mkivs forum where I first read about the rev counter issue! :-) Link to post Share on other sites
matth76 1 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 No could be correct... some rev counters will have x1000, and so have 1,2,3 etc round the rev counter meaning 1000,2000,3000 respectively. Or as in the case above may have x100, in which case have 10, 20, 30 etc round the rev counter, equating to the same 1000,2000,3000. Not sure why they change the multiplier but I'm pretty sure one of my old cars was like the above.One far more weird thing I once saw was in an aston DB9 on display once and I got to have a look at it's rev counter (it was a left hand drive car but this shouldn't have made a difference to the following) oddly it's rev counter was anti-clockwise!! I had to double look at it and confirmed it was actually anti-clockwise. The door was open so I could get a clear view. Weird! Link to post Share on other sites
petervr6 0 Posted July 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 what we mean is the rev counter says 50,70,60,80 it should be 50,60,70,80 Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Rich 3 Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Took me a while to notice it when I first saw it. Link to post Share on other sites

matth76 1 Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 lol ...just noticed it too... can't be right. I reckon they must have edited the photo and or being a concept someone just plain got it wrong. Prob paid too much detail to the engine and forgot about more minor things. I read somewhere yesterday that insiders in the industry estimated that if it was put in production it would be around the 70k mark. I suspect it won't be put into production though and if it was it would be a far more detuned engine. Link to post Share on other sites
