Total 2000mm.

Well I've been telling SWMBO for a while now that I need a bigger shed  :D
1990mm so pretty close, the roof is higher in the shed, its just a low door. May have to let some air out of the tyres or tweak the door.

Thanks again swannie

Did you order it with two water tanks?  We did and with them full our swan fits, without them full the air con scrapes the door just a tiny bit.  I've fixed the vent on the air con twice now when I pushed it in without thinking first.  Cracked and broke some of the fins on the vent.  Easy fix if you know how.

Ok so I thought I would go and measure our Swan, because it is so close to the door and I've got 1960mm that's with the rear tank full and the front half to two thirds full.  Hope that helps.  Our door is between 1990mm and 2000mm depending where you measure.

Thanks Dave,

We haven't ordered it yet (maybe this weekend) we will be getting two water tanks but will also be getting the simplicity independent suspension, so I'm not sure if that will change the overall height by much. Have to wait and see.

Hi Fly Fisher,
we have a dometic on our Swan and it fits under a 2.1m door with about 50mm to spare.

Cheers

Yes, independant suspension, 2 x water tanks, hot water system, inner spring mattresses, toolbox on the A frame and lots of other stuff that makes it heavy to tow!!!!!!! but it is a great camper.
