    Talking How Big is Yours

    We are in the process of widening our driveway, so we can fit both cars and both trailers in the driveway, when we were measuring all of the vehicles, we discovered that the Disco is actually the smallest of the 4, in all dimentions except height.

    Both the box trailer and Camper trailer as well as our Toyota Camry are wider and longer than the Disco and not just by a little, but a considerable amount.

    So how big is yours

    Baz.
    Cheers Baz.

    ahh Baz , there are so many things I can say right at this minute but this is a G-rated Forum ,,

    okay back to your question, I can quite comfortably fit 3 vehicles on my drive way. no Camper trailers , only a small trailor . turning circle is tight It's on a Slope and I have to put the disco in low-2 to exit , and I cannot do any oil changes on my driveway either I have to take it to local servo.

    22 cm (oops...) meters long, 4.8m in narrowest point and 6.7m widest. I hate small driveways and prefer reverse parking, so I'm happy with my new driveway

    Cheers,
    Ruslan

    At a guess... 150 meters long? Id like to see some of the country boys here tell us about there 3 days of travel to get to the end of their driveway. Exactly who does have the biggest on AULRO?
