1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

Generally, a car is comfortable if it is at least 205 cm wide and over 170 cm high.
Proof:
Bentley State Limousine is 632 cm long, 205 cm wide, 178 cm high. It has 6,75 l V8 engine with 400 horses.
Toyota Century Royal is 616 cm long, 205 cm wide, 177 cm high. It has 5,0 l V12 engine with 280 horses.
Hongqi HQE is 640 cm long, 205 cm wide, 172 cm high. It has 6,0 l V12 engine with 400 horses.

What are the measurements of Cadillac One to compare?

Is that actual fact, or just your opinion?

The headlights remind me of my dear departed 1971 Volvo 164E... but I'm not sure if that's a bad thing or not. :D
