Anything that's turbo diesel and manufactured by Mercedes Benz will do me fine.

4 cylinder - Definitely a Cossie Escort in white.

6 cylinder - EL XR6, not sure what colour.

8 cylinder - Maybe a 351 XC Cobra. Not 100% sure. Too many to choose from.

10 cylinder - Dodge Viper in yellow.

12 cylinder - Ferrari 456 GT '92-'97 model, in red.

16 cylinder - Bugatti Veyron in black.

All manuals, of course

Give me 12 months and I’ll have mine finished:
4 cyl – Honda EB1 1970’s engine – 1200cc, alloy block & head, overhead cam, warm cam, flowed head, twin carbs, 12:1 C/R
- Honda B18C 2001 engine – 1800cc, alloy block & head, oval valve springs, hand polished inlet & exhaust ports, 8400rpm redline, max torque at 5700rpm – other than a lighter flywheel it’s factory stock

6 cylinder – Falcon 6 turbo of some sort

8 cylinder – Ford Windsor V8 302 (cheap, simple carby-fed grunt for the race car)

Currently at about 5500cc with another 6500cc to go.

All manuals, of course
You're not going to get the Veyron in manual. They're only available with a fully automatic seven speed gearbox with dual clutch (DSG).

Arg, my mistake then.

Maybe convert it then? Not sure as to what would fit it though.

Then again, I may as well just leave it an auto, could be messing with perfection there...

I don't think converting a one of a kind W16 veyron to manual is possible-everythings pretty much one off and hand built! Make do with an auto, one clutch pop in a veyron would see you waaaaay over a cliff in the hills..

Don't mean to be pedantic, but from memory Mercedes Benz have never built a car with a V10. Sorry to burst your bubble.
