Much like how VNs like to jump around for no discernable reason whatsoever on a country road!

Hmm let's see... here's Holden's model naming "logic"

48-215, FJ, FE, FC, FB, EK, EJ, EH, HD, HR, HK, HT, HG, HQ, HJ, HX, HZ... All that just to throw people off the scent for what the next model name would be! I spose photoshop wasn't available back then so the motoring magazines had to make do with big guess letters on the front page to say "scooped! New Holden Model for 1959!"

"FB" (artists impression only)

I spose the public were more excitable back then!
