    My quattro looks to sit odd sometimes - I think that its usually some
sort of optical illusion that makes it look worse than it actually is.
    I've just measured mine :-
    RL - 35cm
    RR - 34cm
    FL - 34cm
    FR - 34cm
    I might be wrong about the LR 'cos its only six inches from the side
wall of my garage so things are a bit tight getting to it.
