I'm hazarding a guess here, but if you bid the starting price,, I can't see many bidding against you...

What interests me the most is the fact that the seller has used a copy of a printed picture, rather than a real photo.
For such an expensive item, couldn't he beg, steal or borrow a decent digital camera for 10 minutes?
Or doesn't he want to show the engine in its current state?

and heres what the V10 came from;
Produced in 1988
Numbers built 1
Weight 750 kilo
Power 600 bhp / 448 KW @ 12000 rpm
Torque N/A
BHP/Liter 171 bhp / liter
Power to weight ratio 0.8 bhp / kg
Top Speed 340 km/h / 211 mph
0-60 mph Acceleration N/A
From the early eighties the European rounds of the F1 championship were supported by a 'Pro Car' series which saw famous drivers battle it
out before each F1 race in a heavily modified BMW M1. As the M1 came to the end of its production runs a new car or a new series was needed to replace
the Pro Car series as support race. A new series was proposed with cars very similar to the contemporary F1 cars but with a body similar to road cars,
a true silhouette series.
Only one car was built for the series as most manufacturers didn't want to invest the money needed. Alfa Romeo's race department Alfa
Corse built that one car with a lot of help from the Brabham F1 team. The silhouette built resembled Alfa's top model of the time, the 164. The
engine remains completely unique as it is the only Alfa Romeo V10 engine ever built! With a top speed of over 210 mph it was actually a bit faster
than the F1 cars as its bodyshape allowed for much higher top speed.
The 164 Pro Car was never raced, and now remains as a unique reminder of a wild plan. One of motorsport's best kept secrets and a genuine would
/ could have been.
