It's only Ford who call them 2.9. Most other manufacturer would simply call them 3 litre. My Senators were 2969cc, so Vauxhall, quite sensibly, sold 3.0l Senators and badged them up as such! Why is Ford different? Roger.

We seem to have lost the thread again!: "It's only Ford who call them 2.9. Most other manufacturer would simply call them 3 litre. Why is Ford different? Roger. " Any takers?
