Modern cars don't really fit in garages that well, even my wife's Skoda Fabia won't go in our garage.

Old cars never really fit in garages that well either.

My father had both a 1954 Chevy an a 1963 for truck. In one house, built in 1918, the old car could be guided into the 1-car garage with the help of a couple people. There was just enough room to slide around the car.

Later on, they built a new house and extended the garage for the old car to fit. The truck didn't fit in either garage. The newer cars seemed to fit slightly better, though still tight.
