    Guys

    There is a 328gts that I will be viewing soon in Munich. Details below..
    My question is what does Trace widening mean? Am I being dumb?

    Leather beige, radio CD, el window siphon, trace widening, inspection and tooth strap in 67,000 km newly.

    Thanks

    Rod

    Thanks for the quick reply.. Did trace widening mean spacers fitted? if so do you think they can be removed? and why would they be fitted?

    I'm guessing its just a translation error. Track widening, spacers. These can normally be removed, but check to see the geometry wasn't altered when the spacers were added.
    Cheers
