Distance from rear bumper to rear of door.

[Chelton]

Hi all this is my first post. My garage is not that wide so I am putting a door in the side that I can open it to get in and out of the car. I'm doing this before I collect my convertible. So can't measure myself. So the question is what's the distance from the rear of the car to the rear of the door.

I can’t answer your question but bear in mind that the door is quite long, so the arc it swings though to open wide enough to get in and out is also quite large.
Be sure to take account of what rear and front clearance you intend to have to the car when parked and fit the widest door that you can - maybe with a strategic foam bumper on the door frame where the car door would hit if you opened it too far.
Also consider fitting a second light switch by the door too.

I’m not sure the door location dimension will be.

Unfortunately my cars at the dealer so I can’t measure it but the rear bumper to the centre of the rear wheel is 925mm.
