However, this doesn't sound right:
'It's helped, no doubt, by its wide, five-foot front track (13 inches wider than my 1965 Morgan Plus 4!)'
By my reckoning the 3 wheeler is only 90mm wider than the current 4/4.
But isn't the 2015 4/4 wider than a 1965 4/4?
Trad cars have been getting wider over the years, the 2013 Plus 8 is the widest at...
Wait for it...
5' 8"!!
