The booking page asks if over 1.8m, which according to the handbook it is by about 30mm. Consequently we book as a high vehicle, as you say there's no cost penalty.
The 'official' height is probably unladen and on new tyres etc. The first time we took it through we forgot it was bigger than Enrico and went through and onto double deck shuttle OK, only the radio aerial 'pinged' the height limit but there was mm clearance on bars.
Which crossing you go on works both ways. In December we were selected 08:25 (ish) at check in but following the high vehicles route we ended up as last one aboard on the 08:10.
