ditto! how in the world do you make a left or right hand turn at an intersection when it looks as if the front wheels can only rotate about 5 degrees before hitting the fenders?

great pics though - thanks for sharing.

I've had a bunch of really low VW's. It's common to narrow the front beam to allow for a semi normal turning radius. Lookup narrowed beam online and I'm sure you'll understand what I'm describing.

A lot of them are riding on air suspension so when it's time to drive easily adjusted.
