So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

I'll measure mine this evening.

I brought one for the BOC when it was my daily drive as the speed bumps at work are bloody aggressive and they'd worn down part of my gearbox housing.

i have a sump guard as i kind of need it....
dimensions same as above but mine extends quite far back

only bit of advise i can give... fit an oil temp gauge and seriously think about an oil cooler,
my mini was running 120-135degC @55mph without a cooler and now its in check

also mine is 10mm thick and i can jack from it ( after jacking it up to get a trolley jack under it *happy* )
