Well I'm colour-blind and illiterate so that'd be no use.

Don't be keeping them on the same shelf as the brake fluid then!

I've got a nomination....never seen the place but I hear he's on pistonheads and near me in northern ireland. He bought a car off me about 2 years ago and photos of his garage have popped up on a local forum. Properly amazing collection.

I glanced earlier but didn't have a chance to look through it all. frown

Yeah looks like the owner got wind and asked whoever took the photos to remove them. What a visual treat for those who got to see it for the 3 hours they were up.

My new garage:




And new motor:




Longer term plan is not knock down both the garage (concrete pre-fab) and the outbuilding and rebuild it properly!

Fence on the right hand side has also been replaced.

Garden is 78' x 30'

Garage is 20.5' x 10.1'

Outbuilding 17.2' x 12.2'

I like that, but can I ask why only half of the garage appears to be floor tiled?
The tarmac half used to be part of my driveway before the garage was built, but it is far too uneven to tile like the rest. But as that part is used as a workshop and for car cleaning, it may as well stay as it is.

I use the Aqua wax all the time for the Polo, it's brilliant stuff, only takes 15 mins to do the entire car and don't have to bother drying it first. Only £8 on ebay with 2 free microfibre cloths too. Highly recommended smile

I thought you drove a BMW. There appears to be a pile of Morgan in your garage.

Here's the latest addition to my garage. A second hand scissor lift. Makes tinkering so much easier...

I live in Athens, Greece. I found it on an on-line small ad site. There are quite a few on ebay as well.
