Hi All
I just looked in my original manual specs section, manual covers Spitfire 4
Herald and Vittesse, unfortunately the turning circle is not listed, but I
would think the Spit turning circle could be smaller than the Herald as the
wheel base is shorter. Just a thought.
if I could get to the cupboard with the drivers handbooks in I could give
the dimension for a Herald but the cupboard has been built in with Junk!
Graham.
