The width shouldn't be too much of a problem but some strategically placed softboard on the walls to prevent accidental door and front bumper scrapes just in case... -- Simon

Except if you drove it all the way in, you couldn't get out cos of the brick pillar. I had to drive in part way, get out, then push it in the rest of the way. Tricky to get out as well. Now it lives in a container. -- Catman MIB#14 SKoGA#6 TEAR#4 BOTAFOF#38 Apostle#21 COSOC#3 Tyger, Tyger Burning Bright (Remove rust to reply) 116 Giulietta 3.0l Sprint 1.7 GTV TS GT 3.2 V6 Triumph Sprint ST 1050: It's blue, see. www.cuore-sportivo.co.uk

However, I've experienced significant amounts of condensation in containers during cold weather - have you had any issues? -- SteveH |
