A the title really, can anyone confirm the actual (keep wanting to say overall but that'll lead to comments on dugarees etc) width of a Chimaera from door mirror tip to door mirror tip.
Parkers suggest the car is 3" wider than a Lotus Excel so wouldn't physically clear my garage doors!
Thanks

1.89 metres (measured the gap between 2 vertical planks rested against each mirror edge)

Autotrader says 1865mm, and 4015mm long, so that agrees to the above to within 1 inch

Thanks all
Excel only just clears garage opening and is a couple of inches narrower than a Chimaera according to Parkers, however garage opening actually measures a bit wider than that, so wondered if the Parkers sizes were exclusive of mirrors or something.
Back to the tape measure I think.....

If you're looking to get it through a standard single garage door opening, it will fit.

Mine does, with about 3 inches either side.
