Newbie question.
Hi All, I have decided to give biking a break and buy a car, but the question is what kind?
I like the look of the bike engined MK an MAC.
I have about £8k to spend.
If anyone could give me the overall length/width of their car it would solve my first problem-will it go in my garage or not!
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers,
John.

Unless you have an unconventional size of garage, it will fit.length wise a 7 is shorter than most, no boot overhang and very little past the wheels
at the front.
Width wise usually a little wider than a Sierra depending on rear wheel offset and width.

If space is an issue, why not take a look at the smallest of all the sevens

The MK Indy measures 10'10" x 5'7" (give or take an inch or so)
The two cars look so alike because the MAC#1 actually started life as an MK Indy...
