Does anyone park a DB12 in a normal, single UK garage? My DB11 fitted ok. The DB12 is slightly wider!

A DBX is even wider.

You really should just use the measurements of the car and compare them to the measurements of what you have. Just make sure you've got the right width because there's 3 possible measurements: With mirrors, without mirrors, with mirrors folded.

I'm slightly amazed a DB11 fits. My VH Vantage feels tight enough!

My DB12 fits in any garage I’ve tried.

The DB12 has a wider body shell than the DB11, but their widths including the wing mirrors are the same (due to DB11’s mirrors being a bit pointier).

I am on the verge of buying a new DB12 S. I am confident it will fit as my DB11 did, with plenty of room! It's just getting used to it!

Is there such a thing as a normal sized Britsh garage. Every one I've had has been completely different.
My current one fits my Vanquish easily. 30 years ago I could not get a 24v Senator into the garage I had then without all of the boot sticking out of the door.
A tape measure is required.

I tried fitting the DB12 in the garage, and it is absolutely fine! Standard 7ft door and 2.5m wide inside.

Impressive. Can you get out of the car without swearing or pulling a muscle though?

Yes, thanks to the fat jabs! It's either that or buy a Citroën Ami

Strange, I replied to this a few days ago but it's disappeared.

Congrats on your victory! Had it not worked, would it have been new garage or replacement car?

Looks like there are two threads on the go on the same subject with different titles. You’re not going mad Simpo… wink
