It's a real driver's car and the BMW engine is beautifully smooth.
While the engine was an all-new design, it clearly reflects the approach taken with previous BMW engines.

It was to be equipped with BMW 801 engines.
The chassis was also strengthened further to cope with the stress caused by the power of the BMW engine.
The aircraft were used operationally for a short period and withdrawn due to problems with the BMW 801 engine.
