    I know why there was no VA or VM but what about the other missing letters?

    VD?(lol) VF,**, VI, VJ, VO, VV, VW???

    Why did they skip these? I mean, yes VD is a bit wrong, VW is another car brand, and VF/VG/VJ are all Valiants (yes?) But still, most of them could've been used anyway?

    VI, VO, VV. Is that what we are going to be left with?
    I heard that the next series wasn't going to be a V............?

    Yes because GM have come up with a way to make a straight 6 meet euro standards cheaper than a v-spec engine. Something that Nissan and BMW could not do.

    Why would GM go back to a straight six after all this time and research spent on the various V motors?
    It wouldn't make sense.


    Even Ford are moving to a V configuration




    Where is the link?

    Im pretty sure, there would be a lot more speculation if there was this "VI" coming out.

    With all the most the members on this forum being car enthusiasts, im pretty sure, someone else would have found some more info on it.. But since on-one can find anything...

    I CALL BULLSHIT !

    ( Just like that bloke with the VD in his shitbox )
