What's the issue here? The spec for the vx non-turbo turning circle is between 11 and 11.6 meters, depending on where you look. The elise consistently indicates 10 meters. Does anyone know why the vx turn circle is so much worse?

Added feature so you have longer (as a spectator) to see just how beautiful this car is compared to some other, lesser looking vehicles (elise) Vauxhall realised that a turning circle of just 10 meant you wouldn't have time to see every beautiful angle of this lush car so they increased it to 11.6 so you could. Or it could just be the fact that without extra downforce and with the extra weight of the VX compared to the elise they decided that this was the optimum turning circle for the car so it didn't turn over?? All speculation on my part and neither answer is factual, just both sound equally right to my little mind Dean!
