The V2 looks like a short 'cheap' knockoff of an A4 with streamlining, but still a beautiful workhorse how it is.
I still like the "baby A4" concept, the only real let down (looking back at it) is the non-streamlined tender. Smooth the tender top out, and you have a nice little streamliner. :mrgreen:

If you look at the streamlined B17s, you know pretty much what a streamlined V2 would have looked like in any event.
