Length : 428 centimeters = 14.0419948 feet

Width : 176 centimeters = 5.77427822 feet

hummm im sure a FD is wider than that though

my FC is about 76 inch wide ( inc the mirrors ) so thats : 76 inch = 6.33333333 feet ( or about 67 with no mirrors 5.58333333 feet)

Bear in mind you will need to build it large enough to be able to get in and out of the car!

Pmsl....... i did realise what it sounded like once i had posted it.....

Total size of the garage will be 5400 x 4100 mm ( 17.5 x 13.5\'ish ) so if the FD is 14ft i should have plenty of room.

My FD fits in my garage with room to spare, and its smaller than the dimensions on yours.
