Dino 6 cylinder. Enzo refused to call the car Ferrari. But I think there is a hitch with this puzzle.

You're right that there's a hitch, since this is of course AutoPuzzles, where things are rarely quite what they seem to be.
So there's no Ferrari connection..

It's a full-size car, not a model!

It is GRP-bodied yes, unlike the Ferrari Dino, which was of course all-steel.

That's the car, yes!
Can you be a bit more specific about which VW engine it has though?
Locked for you.
