[Minitrio]

Hi everyone,

I am currently working away and I'm looking for long term containers storage for my Mini.

Having phoned a local storage company at home, they asked the overall width and length. Unfortunately my mini cooper is 200 miles away and I don't know anyone at or near work with a classic mini, to get the measurements.

Please could someone tell me the length and width of their Mini?

Thanks

I don't know the width and lengths im afraid, have you tried on google? also remember your mini looks like it has spotlights, remember to add a bit to the length if they stick out further then the bumper

length 11"
Not actual exactly specifical sizes, but thats what you'll need to get one in

Famously 10 feet and a quarter inch long.

It is said that Issigonis was very displeased about the extra quarter inch. Obviously the detailing was done by a team of draughtsmen, and somewhere along the way they got it wrong. Easily done, especially in the days before CAD.

What I often wonder is why did he just not fit bumpers with a flatter profile. 1/8" off each would have done it.
