Hello everyone,

I'm getting worried that the 360 I have on order won't fit in my garage...
Anyone know the exact with from mirror to mirror? I guess I'm looking for the widest point.

Garage door 215 cm. Garage 250 cm. I fitted a Griff 500 in at around 198 cm miror to mirror...

Grateful for any replies.

Brian

make sure you get some foam for the garage wall!

Thanks all!
Looks like I'll be ok. 250 cm inside should be enough to open door. Carpet on wall a must!

Sorry Manu. On reflection it seemed silly to buy a late 355... 360 is really not that much more and I understand considered a slightly better car all round.
(Don't shoot the messenger...!)
I'll still need a tubi though... ;-)

Anyone know where to get left hand drive 360 insurance?? Some fantasy world quotes out there I can tell you!

please make it a dry winter...

Well I've measured my orfice, and it's 220cm. The 360 *just* gets into this with ca. 2cm clearance on either side, and without bringing the wing mirrors in; I like to leave them out since they're wider than any part of the car and help me guide it in. Wouldn't want to park it in a 215cm gap!
