I have a large driveway but don’t have the option of a garage and I have stored my MG in secure storage over winter. Has anyone experience of keeping a car all year round in a race shuttle, I have been looking at a Brian James trailers as a substitute garage?

Just make sure the whole lot doesn’t get towed away!

Yes, but no more than any other unheated garage. I do it over winter, I make a point of sealing it up as best I can and run an extension cable from the garage into the trailer and put a dehumidifier on a timer inside the trailer - works well as the dehumidifier is working with a smaller volume of air so it doesn't have to be working for long periods at a time. This year I may put in some greehouse heating tubes also to make the dehumidifier more effective.

Yeh, I pretty much use a sprint shuttle as an additional garage.
I put a car cover over the car inside, it’s well ventilated and apart from the occasional times it gets condensation on the roof from cold then sunshine it’s stays very dry.
Cats can’t get in either!

My race car tends to live in the back of my 7.5t truck without any issues.

Biggest concern with the trailer as someone else said would be if it got stolen
