What's the difference between a Velocity and a Viento?
(Sorry).
Velocity = normal, seven-sized car.
Viento = about 10% - 15% bigger than a normal seven-sized car. Can take big engines, and suitable for the more generously proportioned driver.
Viento v Velocity (Size wise)
Viento on the left, Velocity on the right.

I was told the Viento is about a foot longer and 6inches wider. Its weird because if I take my Viento to work it looks absolutely tiny in my parking space. Then park it next to a standard seven (Velocity) and it looks huge!
Ah, brilliant. It really is only the Viento that is supersized. If seen that photo above in my other thread, but hadn't realised it was a
Velocity next to the Viento.
I best leave Velocitys alone then!

Can anyone tell me the dimensions of a Viento?
I'm measuring floor space. 
I was informed by wilkingj (Geoff on here)
that
Overall length is 3.5m and wheelbase is 2.6m hub centre to hub centre.
(that is 15cm wider than my quantum xtreme)
I'm sure someone who has one now will come along and confirm, but this could be a starting point for you, I based my decision on not to have one
on these measurement - wouldn't fit down my shared driveway to the garage.

Intresting
So a velocity is standard sierra rear drive shaft width etc same as MK Indy/Mac1 etc?
Or is it narrower and the Viento is standard sierra rear width?
The original Velocity uses a narrowed Sierra rear end the same as the Luego locost IRS , the Velocity XT uses standard Sierra rear XT =Extra Track as does the Viento . The is a photo on here of Geoff in my Locost which makes my car look tiny
