Toyota Celica First generation dimensions 1970–1977
The Toyota Celica First generation (1970–1977) is 417.1 cm long, 160 cm wide and 134.6 cm tall, with a 240.7 cm wheelbase. That makes it about 50 cm shorter than the average liftback in our guide (467 cm across 48 versions). In size it is closest to the Volkswagen Passat (1973, 1.9 cm longer), the Triumph Dolomite (1972, 5.6 cm shorter) and the Lada VAZ-2106 (1976, 8.1 cm shorter).

Will the Toyota Celica fit?
UK parking bay 4.8 × 2.4 m
Fits comfortably62.9 cm spare in length; with mirrors (180 cm wide (est.) including mirrors) about 30 cm free each side for opening doors.
UK single garage 4.8 × 2.4 m, 7 ft door
Fits comfortablyRoom to walk round and open the doors. Height 134.6 cm vs a 198 cm door.
Assumes a UK standard parking bay of 4.8 × 2.4 m and a typical UK single garage of 4.8 × 2.4 m inside (2.1 m high) with a 7 ft × 6 ft 6 in (213 × 198 cm) up-and-over door. Where we have no width-with-mirrors figure we add 20 cm to the body width. “Comfortably” leaves about 60 cm to walk round and open a door; “tight” means it goes in but getting out is awkward. Garages and bays vary a lot — measure yours and use the garage fit checker. For guidance only.
