So, are we saying that some time between my narrow bodied 1999 4/4 and Heinz's 2014, all 4/4 went to the wider body. Or is the Roadster a narrow bodied car ?
C'mon Dave, give us a sneak preview.
if I recall correctly all the cars went to the same body in circa 2005/6. Pretty much the changeover from the blacktop zetec 4/4 to the duratec 4/4. The Roadster runs on the +4 widebody chassis (T16 rover engined +4). All the cars ran with the same chassis until the 3.7 Roadster was released, that's now different because of the gearbox width. There are about 5 widths of crosshead, 3 different types of stub axle. Different hub offsets whether the car is wire or alloy wheeled.
2 rear axle widths..... More if you add the salisbury axles
Frankly it's a nightmare trying to keep up
The superform wing are all the same now and are trimmed along the bonnet edge to suit the width of the car being built. That said, the wings are not mirror images of each other, so there will always be a difference side to side
