Guest Posted April 15, 2005 I had an early 10 valve V5 Bora - nice smooth engine but underpowered for the car, nice engine note but awful fuel economy, never seemed to get more than 27mpg - I regularly get 30mpg out of my G60 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slimbo 0 Posted April 15, 2005 The modern equivalent of the 2.0 8v engine. Utterly pointless. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted April 15, 2005 The V5 exists for people who want the 5/6 cylinder smoothness and reasonable power output (170bhp ish, iirc) but either don't want or can't afford the V6.. The V5 is a very similar beast to the VR6. Who would want a 2.2l 4-pot when you can have a 2.3l V5, all other things being equal? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
