Mook Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Isn't Google great! "Golf R32 width": http://www.modernracer.com/vwr32.html or http://www.engine-power.com/volkswagen/golf_r32.html Both say 68.3" or 1,735mm in new money...

[/ QUOTE ] That must be without wingmirrors, I dont think I can measure 20cm out, unless my car is putting on weight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the width of a standard garage door opening, so would imply that an R32 wouldn't go through a garage door opening with the mirrors out. I know mine will, with a few inches spare either side... Just a thought... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N3WOB Posted October 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 Yes, a lux pack including folding mirrors would make life a lot easier to get into those tight gaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted October 26, 2005 Report Share Posted October 26, 2005 OK, Ross, you've got my curiosity going... Are you: a) building a new garage b) moving to a new house with a skinny garage c) buying a car cover h) something completely different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
