Default It looked a good 6-10 inches wider. Thats just eye balling it. I've seen them

before at shows, but damn it was just massive looking at a comparison. The wheel arches almost came up to the side mirrors.

Default it's obviously the extended length version of the Rolls

hand-crafted and tailor-made to accomodate the wheelchair that the owner requires.
