It's nuts isn't it.
All the houses here are either postwar council houses or huge bling things. So when we were looking we saw a couple of places with OG garages. Seems incredible that your average car used to fit. One of them the owners had sort of knocked out a door in the side at the point where the drivers door could open. Car was some tiny Aego(sp?) sized thing but still a snug fit.
I rented one of them ages ago. The chap in charge was amazed when I said I was planning to keep a car in there. He understood when I showed him a picture of the car, which was/is tiny. Rear axle from a Mk2 Escort is the widest part of it.
