Mine too, just reverse it in and keep it to one side as much
as possible.
Not too difficult to get out of if you get it right smile

I'm pretty sure C5 measurements are quoted without including the mirrors.

I believe folding the mirrors in on the C5 makes their width less than the maximum.

Mine doesn't fit in a garage built in about 2004! I measured the door width which was fine (and pretty standard), but the frame protrudes a further 3-4inches each side making it just too tight.

You shouldn't have a problem with the length as most garages will be over 15 foot long.

Mine's 2008 mm across the mirrors (which is 79 inches or 6' 7")

Car body width is as per Dee Gee's diagrams above.

C5 fits inside a "standard" single garage with the mirrors out no problem unlike a Lamborghini Gallardo!
