    I'm fairly sure that the 318i has a timing belt too. :)

    Ah, I didn't realise he was talking about the 318i
    Edit: And since when are Honda a "higher end manufacturer"?

    Since they produce the largest BHP / litre from any naturally aspired engine in the world. I would kinda class this as high-end.

    I assume you are referring to the 240bhp 2.0 in the S2000. And tell me, does that engine use a belt or a chain? :)

    Sorry - It's all part of my endless quest for the last word :)

    Cheif-- occasionally drops in on an Alfa thread, spouts some ungrounded garbage and blatantly incorrect "facts" and disappears without ever defending his points. Not quite trolling but close enough for lambs like me to rise to the bait.

    147 RULES! WHOOO HOO! :)

    The 2004 revision uses a chain! :D

    That's it, done going off topic, enjoy your 147s!

    i would not class that as being a high-end manufacturer - however it is superb engineering and a nice power return per cc
