On a 325/325/328 (ie. single exhaust), that space under the trunk mat looks just about big enough to fit a doughnut spare, but not big enough for a regular spare.

For a 335, that space is like 1/5 of the above, due to extra exhaust and muffler components.

I'm terrible at eye-ing dimensions but i'd say around 2ft long x 2ft wide x 3 feet deep but honestly I wouldn't trust my guess
