Size is important

[Mabel]

The lock-up garage I rent to store my 1.5 in is failing (roof might fall in soon), damp and a 45 minute walk away. I’ve been offered one by a neighbour that is less than 20 seconds away. That’s good although it may or may not be too small. As my 1.5 is in the final throes of being restored, she’s not to hand so could someone go and measure the length from bumper to bumper please.
I know factory spec is 152 inches long but is that the exact measurement from bumper to bumper.
Cheers and thanks in advance.

Have just been in the garage to measure my vehicle it is not as straightforward as you might think. Taking into account the overriders I got a measurement of 3.9 Meters or to give just a little leeway 154 inches.

Hope this helps

Thanks for getting back to me. Yes, it did help......a lot. Mabel will fit in the garage with possibly 2 or 3 inches to spare. I'll fit some upholstery foam to the end wall to try and prevent any damage to the front bumper etc.

Now, to try and make it as secure as possible. Don't want to wake up to find she's been stolen overnight.
