Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Parts departments are very variable.  For those in Sheffield I find the Hillsborough one excellent  :smiley:

H'mmmm, I wonder what the difference on the Rallye is caused by.  :nerd:

I think it might be due to the subframe being ever so slightly different, I've noticed on the Corrado/MK3 it has 2 long bits that extend back and are bolted to the bottom of the chassis, I wonder if it is the same on the Rallye/G60 and is ever so slightly thicker at the bolt mounting holes?  Either that or the floorpan area may be a bit thicker under there for a bit more stiffness, or simply its down to a slight difference on pans fitted to cars with cable change boxes?

Dunno  :grin:
