I went into this parking to visit Herge's Tintin Museum on the way back after collecting my brand new Cali in Amsterdam. The mistake I made was going down to a lower level. There were a couple of sphincter clenching moments going up the ramp. I wouldn't do it again. Lesson learned. Minimum 2.10m now.Would you entre this parking ? High 2 metre?

I had more grey hair coming out than I had when I went in. Other users were not too impressed as I mounted the ramp at an angle to miminize the height. It's just not worth the stress.So why wouldn't you do it again? - you fitted.
Parkopedia will tell you any height restriction. Apple app available, probably android as well, if not there’s a web site.I use the TOM TOM app for Android to navigate. Is would be great if the mark the height of the parking when you select one in a town you never visited. Now you have to drive and see when you arrive.
Do you have an awning? If so probably your van is more than 1990 mm high.Would you entre this parking ? High 2 metre?

Just stay on the same parking level.
The awning, if factory fitted, is not the highest point as the roof is concave with the highest point in the centre, note the awning as seen in the 2nd photo in Post 14.Do you have an awning? If so probably your van is more than 1990 mm high.
My son thought he could drive the A86, cos' Dad had done it.I do it all the time, I’ve even just done the famous A86, underneath Paris - must admit I ducked all the way. My only comment would be that the boot when open is considerably higher.
