Opel Signum dimensions 2003–2008

The Opel Signum (2003–2008) is 463.6 cm long, 179.8 cm wide and 146.6 cm tall, with a 283 cm wheelbase. That makes it about 55 cm longer than the average 5-door hatchback in our guide (409 cm across 212 versions). In size it is closest to the Opel Vectra 5-door hatchback (2002, 4 cm shorter), the Renault Laguna 5-door hatchback (2005, 5.9 cm longer) and the Renault Fluence (2009, 1.8 cm shorter).

Will the Opel Signum fit?

UK parking bay 4.8 × 2.4 m

Fits, but tight

It fits inside the lines (16.4 cm spare in length), but at 199.8 cm wide (est.) including mirrors only about 20.1 cm is left each side — expect to squeeze out if cars park either side.

UK single garage 4.8 × 2.4 m, 7 ft door

Doesn't fit

Too long to close the door behind it. Height 146.6 cm vs a 198 cm door.

Will it fit my garage?

Assumes a UK standard parking bay of 4.8 × 2.4 m and a typical UK single garage of 4.8 × 2.4 m inside (2.1 m high) with a 7 ft × 6 ft 6 in (213 × 198 cm) up-and-over door. Where we have no width-with-mirrors figure we add 20 cm to the body width. “Comfortably” leaves about 60 cm to walk round and open a door; “tight” means it goes in but getting out is awkward. Garages and bays vary a lot — measure yours and use the garage fit checker. For guidance only.
