Roof box height ferry.
As a general rule i would take the height of an mpv people carrier as close to the height limit.
Anyone out there got any experiences.
The height limit on the brittany ferry is 1 83m or you end up going into the 2 6m bracket which is very high and would mean we could not take the fast cat.
Supplements apply to cars mpv s 4x4 s over 5m long and 1 83m high and motorhomes mini buses and vans over 5m long and 2 6m high.
I think most ferry companies take height to be from ground to the top of your car including roof box.
What will the total height be when the roof box has been fitted to the car if its over 1 83m then the cost of the ferry will increase by 60 00 don t forget to leave a review of the french and other european campsites you have visited.
They will help you get the job done more quickly easily and safely in the long run.

Anything higher then you will be put in with the lorries and have to pay extra.

A top box or bicycles on arrival our loading staff may ask to measure your vehicle if your booking has been made incorrectly or you do not consent to a check we will not be able to honour your booking and you will be asked to change your ticket and pay any difference in.

When booking it is essential that you declare the correct height of your vehicle including any roof load as vehicles over 1 85m in height cannot fit in all areas of our vessels vehicle decks.
We just returned on friday and when we booked it was without a roof box and we then bought one which nudged the height just over the 6ft mark by an inch or so.
As a rule us chaps don t read instructions and to be fair most of us get away with it 95 of the time.
