Namely "wicked, the grass makes my car look lower". And subsequently, it's now the first thing said when I turn up at PVS and at Trax.

I give you.


Exhibit A - my car, on tarmac, at Trax.




Exhibit B - my car, on grass, at PVS.




Exhibit C - the cover of Total Vauxhall December 08 issue.




Exhibit D - the Crail Airfield feature.




Exhibit E - page 61 of that issue Total Vauxhall, page 4 of the feature (including 'totty').




Exhibit F - the bottom of page 4 or page 61.




And finally, Exhibit G.

Always been the same, must be something to do with the softer ground, the length of the grass yadda yadda.

Muddy hills make it lower hahah

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I thought people (CorsaCF mainly ) used to go on and on about it because it was a stupid remark. Obviously wasn't that stupid.

Clearly only ever read picture books - there is writing to go with it I was building suspense, making it an occasion, giving it some depth etc etc laa laa.

Because Endsleigh wanted £1300 EXTRA.

Plus I don't want to lower it not now anyway.
