Tim,
In your last photo, there is a box marked "front indicators". If I were you I would have them stored in a safe deposit box in a nice secure bank vault.
Just sayin'. smile

That's the one. The previous owner of the house left the anti-grav unity behind.

Well spotted Glen. Sadly, they are just inferior imitations - Kia Pride - cheap as chips !

If you have ever tried to follow Niiige you will know that he has super grippy tyres and they also allow the S4 to be stuck to the garage wall. He has considerable skill in getting two wheels up the ramp on his drive so that he can enter the garage sideways. What a driver!

Some lovely garages so far, here's my feeble attempt in my new home



Another one who moved up north for a bigger garage. Shame I still work in London though furious

It's nice and warm as its double skinned and got the boiler and very large radiation too. Guess I'm still a soft southerner wink

Plan is to create a lot more storage, proper lighting and a ramp so I can play car jenga and fit three in. Well, that's the plan!

Looking forward to seeing more, and for those of you jealous of some of the garages listed, please don't look at this thread

Great thread, mine is under a car port at the moment, garages work as long as they are warm or have air, damp ones would be bad news....

I AM ASHAMED after seeing all those beautiful garages. !
Mine lives on the same piece of tarmac all year round & it has done for the past 14 years.It hasn't a home to call it's own.

14 years in the same place??? yikes Shirley it gets out & about every now and then???? driving

My S1 Austin is the hardy type, likes the Cat & Fiddle Pass in winter*, but Percy my S3c has been cosseted in a tiny rented lock-up garage when he's not being used.**
I have the old crafty tennis ball on a string suspended from the rafters so that when it touches the screen, I know the front is 0.5" from the storage cabinet at the end wall, and si there is just enough room at the back of the car to close the up-and-over door. And I have stuck carpet underlay on the side wall so I don't damage the paintwork on the door when extricating or inserting my vast bulk. ( It's a very narrow garage, compared to my waist size wink )

The main thing is to enjoy our S's as they are meant to be used, irrespective of how they spend their time eagerly waiting for that next blast! smile

No...we should be ashamed Gary....you manage to run it without the luxury of a garage, and it still looks good

scratchchin Just thinking......

If I could drive like Niiige, and had the same supersticky tyres fitted to both my S's, I could probably get them both in that lock-up!

Mind you, I would probably struggle to get in and out of the driver's seats.

Hey ho....
