Default Escort Mk3/Series1 Dimensions?

Hi Im new here and Im currently weighing up the idea of finally getting the car I always promised myself when I was younger a series1 RST, only thing is I will only bite the bullet and get one if I can squeeze it in the missis's garage.

So Im looking for some help finding dimensions for the Mk3 shell, as long as bumper to bumper its no more than 176inchs I can start looking and happly squeeze it in the garage, if not well sadly I'll have to look at something else

So any help is great welcomed and hopefully if anyone comes back with the right answer then Im off to find the right car

Cheers

Funny enough your just down the road from the missis, shes on Coomfield Drive, you might have spotted my Red Alfa 156 driving about.

Good to see the van all ship shape, I remember seeing it for the first time after you'd had your 'Ding' then caught glimps of it few doors up in the back as we'd drive past.

Looks spot on, any chance you could measure yours?
