I have a double garage. I measured the new car. It's too wide to fit
either side.

It doesn't help that many so-called double garages are just two single
garages joined together

When I moved here, over 30 years ago (1), I thought that the nice
large garage with sliding segmented door would be great.

However, when I checked the measurements, it wasn't long enough
for my Volvo 240 :-(

Has anyone ever bought a house with a garage built at the same time which
was actually an adequate size for the sort of car that house would expect
to see?

when my parents moved in 1958 it was to a house built in 1939. The lady
selling said the garage will take a Rolls & a Cadillac - we've tried it."
