Does anyone have a Cooper handy, and a tape measure?
I forgot to bring a tape measure to work with me this morning... :I

If anyone has half an hour to spare, I could do with some measurements? I'm trying to make a Halloween costume..... :I

:D

I'm off Vaila, but if you phone Clare, the measurments are in the back off the brochure.....2 seconds to find out .

The brochure dimensions are also on the net, on the mini site, select the model, and then it's under dimensions.

Of course, you may be after something thats not there!

I got the measurements off the web site, thanks. But they don't help me much! :I
But I'm making the "costume" in squares (no artistic ability whatsoever :I), so I actually need the dimensions of the following bits (as near square as possible!)-
Bonnet
Grille / Lights / "nose" of car
Sides (front to back, under windows)
Roof
Boot
Windscreen
Side windows (front to back above bodywork)
Back window

I'm so annoyed at myself for not remembering a tape measure today!! :mad:

Sorry to be a pest, but if you phone Carlo at pentagon, he has the full car in templates for making decals, so he has all the dimensions.......
Clare can give you the number(my day off):p

Hmmm..in a rare flash of mystery clue-solving..



Does this have anything to do with the reason you were looking for a car cover a while back? huh? huh? ;):D:D:clown:

Yes, Ewan it does! :D
However, I couldn't get the colour I wanted, so I now have to buy material, and make the "costume" myself. :p

I should have time to measure wee Smurfy tonight, order material, then if it comes on time, spend Saturday sticking it all together! :eek:

Good sleuthing, Sherlock! ;)
