Starting to consider the possibility of investing in my all time dream car - namely a Griffith. Currently have an S3 (which will be hard to part with).
One simple question though - How wide is a Griff? Including wing mirrors? S3 lives (sometimes) in the garage, and I want to make sure that a Griffith would sensibly fit before I get too excited...

Thanks!

Acording to the data on other TVR sites, the Griff is 1,943mm wide including mirrors (that 6' 4.5" in old money).

Hope it fits as they are fantastic... and a little bit scary!

Thanks for such a fast reply. That should be about OK -with care. Now all I have to do is convince the Finance Dept - 'remember how last year you had that lovely new kitchen, well this year I thought.......'

Cheers - again.

Don't forget to allow 1/2 inch either side for carpetting the walls!
