Or, hear me out, learn the size of your car and garage. The sizes do not change. Figure it out and work with it.

Harsh, but I have very little sympathy for people who aren't aware of their car when driving/parking.

Duuude you wanna know the real bad part? I left this out for the shortness of the story, but since she got her "new" car she's insisting that it goes in the garage. Technically everything will fit, both cars in gives is 600mm between the walls and each car, but I've stressed this is a bad idea since A) her car was lightly damaged by the previous owners and she doesnt want to pay to fix it so is it really worth the squeeze? and B) 2 cars in such close proximity with a young kid? someone's gonna get scratched.

One is a 45k suv, the other is an 8k 12 year old hatch, one is worth protecting the other is not. And yet, she still managed to scratch the SUV when her car wasnt even in the garage. So she's lost parking privilege's in the garage.
