Jethro, thanks for posting the image.
I swear I see a wingless FW-109 fuselage when I look at your car !

If I may make a suggestion, I was looking at the images of your cars front end and noticed the front fenders have a very pronounced flare to the wheel arch .
This no doubt is causing quite a bit of turbulence .

Any plans to smooth this area ?

Also, I noticed the turbulence in your tuft test and my first thought was the mirror.
I then noticed you had your windows down a couple of inches.

It would be interesting to redo the test with the mirror folded back and the windows up.
