90 inch wide garage-

hi andy, i have a garage that has an opening of 83'' and inside, the smallest point measures 93''.
i've attached some foam to the wall that i got free from work, and it works wonders. it means i can rest the door on the foam without fear of damaging it.
here's some pics for you:
obviously that's 3'' wider than yours, so gives you an idea how it will fit in.

Sell the zed and get a fiat panda

This has got me thinking..I'm trying to buy a house right now. One of the main points for me was that it has a garage. I did think it looked a bit small. I might do a 3rd viewing and request trying to get the Zed in and then trying to get out of it. Hmmm.

Ditto that, our criteria when looking for our new house a few years ago was a side by side double garage, a max budget of X and a village location with a red telephone box.
There were two houses in the whole of Leicestershire which met our requirements!! (one of which we bought).
Modern garages are tiny.
My wife is a planning officer at our local council and to be considered a parking space, integrated garages on new houses used to have to be 5m x 2.5m, but recently the rules have just changed to be 6m x 2.75m.
Every council is different regarding this, but it's very much worth checking the local rules out if you're buying a new build.
New house builders never consider a garage actually being used for a car. Only when you buy a bigger house with a double you get proper consideration.
Land is money and it seems that parking a car in a garage is deemed non essential to many
Integral garages are a joke. We ended up converting the existing garages (two singles) into other rooms and are now in the process of building a "proper" garage at the other side of the house:
Internal measurements are 5.1m wide by 5.5m long, so plenty of space for #108
