Quick car dimension check - Andy Bennett - 01-04-2022

I am specifying a trailer and have been offered a bespoke length and potentially a snug width so need to check dimensions for 33 LWB Box saloon
My car and I are separated at the moment so I only have my quick measurements taken couple of weeks ago, which were:

Width to outside of wheels/tyres 1.1m.

Length: wheelbase wheel to wheel centres 2m
 
Overall dimensions:
Weight: 550kg
Length of car 3m overall
Width overall 1.2m

I would greatly appreciate a kind soul with a LWB Box saloon and a tape measure to check my measurements, specifically length, number plate to number plate
and width running board to running board.


Thank you so much
Andy

I think you'll find that the overall length of the car is 10' (more if you have a luggage rack), which is slightly more than 3metres.
Overall width is 4'3"

I suspect that Reckers has cropped the image from one of the Engineering Drawings on the Archive web site (which is absolutely fine, it's what they are there for) Just wanted to point out that there are many similar schematics for other models that can be found there as well...
