thanks for taking those , very much appreciated , the model i have is all wrong there ive had to cut it up and remake it lol

is that in a standard garage there? often wondered if the doors have room to open


Re: front end photo request...im making a model dmc - MikeWard - 06 Sep 2011

No problem.

Yes, it is a standard garage, it's a little tight, but with a bit of precision parking you can get both doors open in there should you need to, though I usually park it off to one side for a little extra space.


Re: front end photo request...im making a model dmc - Guinney1971 - 07 Sep 2011

I had a single garage at my old house in Stevenage, and it was easier to open the
door on the De then it was my Renault Clio.

right another request if anyone can help

looking for a pic of the front bumper taken from near the tyre facing forward , trying to gauge how far the rubber sticks out past the stainless wing

thanks


Re: front end photo request...im making a model dmc - Guinney1971 - 12 Sep 2011

I'll go and do that now for you if you want, my car is still out on the drive from the
weekend (even took it to the Post Office earlier rather then dig the Avi or one of
the Cavaliers out lol)


Re: front end photo request...im making a model dmc - steveo3002 - 12 Sep 2011

thats great

if you see before taking the pics...id not mind one with the door open showing all the way around the appeture , need to see where the stainless joins the black bits

thanks
