Default Measurments for Factory Five Cobra

Does anyone have the measurements for a Factory Five Cobra? I need to make sure it will fit in the trailers I'm looking at. Thanks!

I know the track is wider than standard Cobra but I don't know the exact measurment. It's only a couple inches and shouldn't matter when looking at trailers. The car fits easily into a standard two-axle enclosed car trailer.

Tell me what you want, and I'll go out the garage and get it. Overall length and width?

from tip of quick jack to tip of quick jack I have 13'4" long (my 9 year old helped so it may be off an inch, trying to get her to hold a tape still is a job in itself)

from outside of rear wheel well lip I have 72 3/4"

my car is a Mk3

hope that helps

Thank you! Do you know how many inches both quick jacks add compared to the over ride bumpers? I can't find the jacks measurment size on FFR's website.

To answer your question, a 16 foot enclosed trailer is about as small as you would want to put your Cobra in.
