Hi, back with another question:- before I hit the highways and byways, I would love to know the height of my vehicle as I can't find it in any books I have or on the internet.

Vehicle is a Ford Herald Templar Hallmark II....jeez, that's some name!

It's a 2-berth if that's any help.

Thanks

I have the hight of mine from the manufacturer's datasheet, but then I added a satellite dish so the hight changed.
I got a length of 2"X1" timber and a spirit level, I put one end of the 2"X1" on the highest part and measured the 'drop' to the ground at the other end, using the spirit level ensured there was no slant in the 2"X1" which would give a false measurement.
The new hight came out at 2.98m so now I confidently drive under and barrier or bridge signed at 3.0m., with wine, all the gear, bikes and water on board I'm definitely ok.
