I'm planning a quick trip to Germany next week and at the back of my mind I seem to recall there were ground clearance problems on Eurotunnel for some low slung cars. Has anyone taken their S on the Shuttle, and were there any problems?

Obviously I could call Eurotunnel, and ask what the minimum clearance is, but this would then mean crawling under the car with a tape measure to ascertain the exact height (Lowth!) of the beast.

Thanks all

Cheers

Graham

Thanks both for the input. I've used the tunnel many times but never had the ground clearance of the S to contend with.

Peter I remember the echo from driving my Subaru through - I always wound the windows down early in anticipation of the safety briefing.

Btw, re. Zolder, are you campaigning the V8S anywhere this year? Having read of your various exploits, I thought I'd like to come and have a listen

Cheers

Thanks all for the responses. Most helpful - Autobahnen here we come

Shame I've got to work while I'm there!
