EDIT: the body should stand horizontal at the sills.

Hi TC...
Just wondering if you think that the body should be horizontal at the sills, based on the image supplied, or is it referenced somewhere?
Dimension “G” refers to clearance height at axles, so not really at front and rear of sills.
Perhaps the image is just “for information only”, but not representative of actual specification height.🤔
Although It would certainly make sense, I’ve rarely seen a 75 that is horizontal at the sills.
For some reason, saloons always look lower at the front, whereas tourers can often look low at the back, due to sagging.🤔
Possibly because, at this stage, most will have had replacement springs, that are not factory spec / oem quality.😞
