In this video, I tell the story behind the Goldfisch V16, a prototype engine developed by BMW in the late 1980s that never made it into production. I cover everything from the story behind its development, to its differences in performance and specifications, and why the engine was never put into production. So if that interests you, you should give it a watch. Hopefully you enjoy. I won't be offended if you don't though.

Special thanks to Gavin Farmer and his article "Secret Seven" for providing a lot of insight in to the development of this engine.
