but in doing so they knew i think, the 2 series replacement g42 was not going to any longer have a mere evolutionary size bump, but a sizeable increase.

it looks to be so in the spy shots the past couple of months.
CLAR doesn’t mean it has to grow though. The G29 is built on the CLAR platform and it shorter in length than the current 2 series. Add back seats to the G29 and it still isn’t a big car, probably about the same length as the e46 coupe
