trigolf Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 Small by modern standards maybe, but look how much room you've got to open the doors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Truman Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 I sent the pic to my daughter who has a Spit Mk2 locally here and that was her exact comment plenty of room to open your doors in a car park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteH Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 I had the Side Steps on my (US) "Hilux" (Tacoma). Deters those who "fling open" doors quite effectively. UK parking space widths have not kept up with the increase in vehicle widths. Eg: the New Mini, (BMW) is obese compared with it`s 1960`s namesake.

Pete The current new minis are obese compared with the earlier new minis and those ones were fairly obese compared to the originals 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagger Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 Almost narrow enough to use the motor cycle lanes on the carriageways. Colin, it's worth sending your picture to the BMW forums. I was a member of the E61 section. Five series estate. I do try not to be a bully. Might put a Skoda badge on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
