Wink Wife Questioning my Length

Hi All

Is it just an optical illusion, but my wife reckons our silver 97 turbo is longer that some of the jap imports same age that we looked at last weekend...was thinking of changing....is it just silver that makes the car look longer..or are the imports especially white a shorter body.....
stupid but hey...dont like to have my length questioned even if she is saying its to long......

Length isn't important, its the quality of the ride that counts!

length and width don't count, it's the amount of thrust behind it!

I think you will find that it is the misters who cannot measure properly.
