What Car? Q&A - Where can I compare car widths?

Q: I need to buy a new car which is narrow enough to put in my garage. I am having difficulty finding comparative figures. Can you help me?

A: The whatcar.com website features a powerful tool that allows you to compare facts and figures on up to three cars at a time.

So whether you want to compare acceleration times, fuel consumption, boot space or, in your case, the width of cars, you can do so from the comfort of your chair.

Simply go to the home page of whatcar.com and click on the 'Compare up to three cars' link on the left under a pair of drop-down menus.

Then choose whether you want a new or used car, and choose the models from your shortlist. The website will then present the details you need in an easy-to-read format.
