ah he replied
"Sorry - wasn't designed to sound rude, lots of firms do not
pretend their customers are 'all metric'- and I just wanted to get
a 'mind's eye' of the size of it (was looking at others too all
around the web) and since I'm armchair surfing I didn't want to
get a ruler - I hate to surprise you but like it or not most of us
still refer to sizes in 'old method' (ask someone their height,
weight, or even if you hold your fingers 15 'cm' apart and get
people to guess see how many say 6 inches or 'half a foot'
compared to metric). There's a bunch of us want emblems etc
for some supercharged classic minis - we just wanted to
compare yours with several others. I'm sorry I asked. Again - it
wasn't meant to be rude just simply a customer asking for info -
maybe the customer *is* wrong if it goes against the EU way ;-)
