Calling all people with a vee in West Mids!

[Jay]

Need to ask a big big favour!!

Sorry for sounding really cheeky, but would someone mind trying there vee in my garage unsure if it will fit or not? and if you are able to get in or out of the car whilst in the garage.

Many thanks

 

[Justin]

cant you just use the measurements? lol

 

[Jay]

you'd think, unsure how tight it would be getting in and out of the car. Catch my drift?

 

[riz]

screw carpet onto your garage wall same height as door therefore wont scratch

 

[Jay]

that's if I'll be able to open the door and get out the car?

 

[Jay]

[riz]

Install a sunroof.

they are the same width mirror to mirror as yours i beleive

 

[TomS]

I believe Gaz is correct

 

[Jay]

a vee will fit in my garage just, with 2 inches clearance either side the mirrors/body. That means I won't be able to get out the car.

Looks like living and sleeping in the vee lol or parking it on the drive.

 

[kully]

Do it.................

 

[DebV6]

^^Yep, I agree, DO IT!!

I was worried about it too (thanks god they are no wder than a normal clio) As i'll have to get it down the drive between ours & next doors, luckily for me I don't have to open the doors, only at the other end in the back garden on our rear drive

1911 mm plus a couple of feet more to get out.

Fit a winch to the end of your garage

Need a garage like an Arc car wash.

The problem you'll have is stepping over the sill if you can't open the door wide enough. Your garage is smaller than mine, and mines tight as a nuns chuff. As has been said, it's no wider at it's widest point than yours.

carpet the walls of the garage and push it in and chock it.

Like it, You,d have to be hulf hogan to push the vee,

Trust me Ive tried!!

 

[cK]

Make it into a convertible. I'll gladly chop the roof off it for you with my airsaw.

 

[kriss]

the problem as others have said is the two things

getting your legs over the sills/skirts

the doors are a few inches thicker due to the moulds

i have a load of ladders against the wall i would use lol

 

[Don]

Jay,

You should have asked ChrisK while he had his V6!!!

Mandy reckons you'll need to work out whether its practical enough (what happens if your sick in the car? :dead:

Hope you do go for it...although I will hate you for being your age with the potential of a Vee!!!

 

[Jay]

lol @ donny!

Tell Mandy, I've learnt my lesson from being sick in cars (especialy my own).

It will be cool to get one....... just counting the pennies.
