I find it tight enough getting into a 100% size one so it's a "No" from me.

I see he had a few in different colours or has he taken a leaf out of Shellby's book and simply painted the same car different colours and re-photo'd it?

Some of us just find it so easy, though!

This I think has reversed the current trend in vertually all motor vehicles on the road today .
Just take the mini, it has grown to nearly the size of the old Austin maxi !
People bought the old style 60's mini and lots of other types in that size class for a simple reason that they
wanted a small car !
Why I ask didn't bmvue call it the maxi ?
Frauds started new models and every time the next upgrades came along they put on a bit of weight all around !
This happened until the model was eventually canned for good, makes things difficult if you just require a small car .
