they would not let you through the normal height 185cm (you would not make it through anyways) and might be heavily fined as well for loading obstruction so no point risking going through the hassle and price difference is marginal

ETunnel says there is NO price differential between tall and normal car... Thumbs Up
There is just fewer spaces available so they run out quicker.

I have found no price difference as well - what I have noticed is that the over height line often moves faster !

if you have five in the car (like I did) you can get back the £100 extra it costs with freebies in the business portacabin - ISTR racing a fecked off X5 driver down the ramp last year as I nicked in front of him from my special lane - bought him a glare from the officials and a banishment to the upper deck Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

I have always gone in over 1.85 m as I assumed the shark fin antenna would hit. Last weekend saw someone in the normal under 1.85m with a shark fin. Don't know if he made it. Has anyone done it with the antenna on top? THanks

I have been in the under 1.85, in access height. I dont have a shark fin, but I do have a rear access ladder which sticks up a little more I think.

You need to confirm this by looking at a vehicle with both fitted. The top of my ladder was about 2 inches clear of the roof of the carriage.

Loads of room in the low carriage with sharks fin, in access height. Been in there few times. Prefer the high carriages, saves me taking the CB whip off. Smile

When I came back on the ET I went in the overheight lane and was then driected into the lower part of the double decker car in access height it was fine. Seemed strange at the time though.

cheers
