2020, "Dave Plowman (News)" remarked:

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?

Yes, around the Millennium I bought a house about 10yrs old which had a
very generous double garage. With just the one door, although many of
the houses in the same development had two single doors.

All had room for an additional four cars on the drive (2+2 side by side)

I can get my latest Mustang into mine since I installed an electric
shutter on the outside wall and saved nine inches.AND I can open the
very large doors... ...and have my radio shack up in the gang nail truss
roof space with added support beam .....every subsequent american car I
have had just gets longer and longer wider and lower...tee hee..unless
it is an SUV that is...
