This is supposed to be a forward cabin configuration wherein half of the engine bay is covered by the cabin's dashboard. The same configuration with my Chevrolet Venture (weekend Family Van) . Now how do they manage to repair the other side of the engine ???

More shots of a traffic bored driver;

f1.jpg - Driver's view of the instrumentation. Notice how i positioned the steering wheel between the upper display and the lower instrumentation panel

f2.jpg - Closeup of the Instrumentation panel (Car still in Automatic Mode)

f3.jpg - Manual Shift paddle mode. Currently at 2nd Gear attempting to accelarate maintaining 2nd gear setting using the spaces in front of me on a 30km/h traffic!

f4.jpg - Decided to Gas-in near red line at 2nd gear Manual Mode. I did this
with right hand holding the phone and roughly 50 meters of space in front of me for accelaration and disk brake slowdown. I peaked at 101km keeping it at 2nd gear leaving enough space to slowdown to normal traffic speed of 30-40km/h hehehe. ABS kicked-in! Scary!
