That figures, if the 159 has a wider wheelbase at the front than the
156, they might have clawed space back to reduce the huge turning
circle. I know the suspension is different in the 159 (and relatives)
so this may have impacted the available space too. Regardless, it
sounds as if the 159 engine bay is a similar size to the 156.
