Hi guys, how much wider roughly is the 599 ? Would I get through a 7 foot door I can get 360 in with mirrors out but for safety fold one in as a general rule.

Wikipedia shows just 40mm wider or an inch and a half in old money :-)

I know the 360 is a wide car, but "just" 40mm does not seem enough ?

You will have to fold one mirror in for a 7' opening, clearance is then around 20mm - 25mm at the mirrors either side from memory

1962mm wide at the arches, front is basically as wide as the rear and you may have to fold your mirrors in to fit through the door - making it difficult to see how much clearance you have left once the nose is in. As no electric fold mirrors you have to fold the passenger mirror in before driving her in.

I only ever push the car in anyway so as long as it fits no big deal
