Cupra R Width?

[sixpot]

Can anyone tell me what the overall width of a LCR including the mirrors is please?
I need to measure my garage and check it will fit in!!

Not sure on the width but my leon fits through a 7" wide door with 2-3 inches on each side. You could look on the Seat website.


EDIT:


It's 1742mm. Don't know if it includes mirrors.

I believe this dimension is the measurement from the tops of the wheel arches on each side, and it doesn't include the mirrors.

best way would be to go to the dealer with a tape measure, if your going to buy a car off them i doubt they would mind.

OK cheers for your help.

1980mm overall for UK model (equal sized mirrors) up to new curved shaped mirrors, not sure on the difference if ther eis any for the new ones.

Cheers, didn't think they were as wide as that!! My Mk 3 Golf is only 1890mm wide across the mirrors!!

you could always measure it....?

open the drive and passenger window and stick a tape measure through to the edge of each mirror....

We had a fella at work with a big rover vitesse (sp?) Had a new garage built but they made it too small, the builder told him to get a smaller car so he went out and bought a metro! Hes not the sharpest tool in the box tho.

Thats why you put two mirrors infront of you so you can see down the sides!
