considering that a classic Mini is longer than 8 feet,even if we ignore the American stylings and imagine all of those are various models of Ford Consul, they're still probably going to be closer to 12-14 feet.

*geek mode on*The average length of a late 1950's saloon car (based on that movie coming out in 1958) was about 211 inches so around 17 feet. Somebody else do the maths that's enough pedantry for one morning from me.
