Just browsing pistonheads, had a look at this article, not exactly my cup of tea car wise although i do quite like it in a way, BUT how nice does the engine bay look, I wish all cars had this attention to detail.

Article above, this is the engine bay

 

All costs money though unfortunately, and 90% of car owners will never look under the bonnet, so not much point really!

Plus it makes them more of a pig to work on

 

It's an Alfa, what do you expect!

 

I know, just funny how some manufacturers do it and some don't. I suppose an Alfa owner will be used to seeing that....
I haven't ever bothered to look at the engines in my other cars, for 2 reasons, 1 I'm not that interested, and 2 i don't need to as they don't break unlike a cossie.
