    You reckon your car just fits!

    I finally got around to taking a photo of our garage door and our car

    This is with a full tank, and this is as much clearance as we ever have. I usually have to fill the tank with about 60l left (127l tank) as the car is touching the garage door as you drive in.

    At least you have a garrage you can get yours into...

    The Carolla is nearly too tall to get into ours so I just use it for storage.

    Thats damn close though..

    Stopped at a steel merchant today to buy a piece of 50 x 75 RHS. The new house I've just brought has a great big workshop and a double carport for the cars. Trouble is Princess won't fit under there. So 4 packers 75 square x 50 high and raise it 50mm and it will be sweet.

    I'll second that...
    I can get the bonnet of my landy in our shed,
    and if I'm careful,
    just sneak the front windscreen section in where the roof slopes up,
    The landy roof will hit the shed door just above the drivers head
