The reason being that is it easier to see down the side of the car whilst reversing than fronting it in and judging the front left corner - when you are talking 1-2cm, there is no room for mistakes.Chris Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/8578-tight-fit/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
