I am soon to scrap my old faithful Ford Mondeo estate, rust, poetic justice really! Am looking for internal dimensions of a replacement, am finding cubic capacity in Litres. As I am not planning on using this vehicle as a milk float this is of no use to me. Can it fit a 67" Type VII U-Boat straight in? These are the questions rarely addressed on specialist sites!
So, we all build boats and loads of us use our cars to transport the models to the pond. Maybe it is time to start recording these vital dimensions for fellow modellers out there.
I will start;
Ford Mondeo Estate ( Old shape, pre 2000) Seats folded ( the only important dimension!) 73" length, 44" across the wheel arches ( narrowest point ).
Ford Focus Estate 04 plate, seats folded, 68" length 44" across wheel arches.
Who has a Vauxhall Zafira ( older or newer model ) and a tape measure?
