Last time I did a trackday at Cadwell, the Scamblesby garage was still cash only.

Took these back in 2005, not sure exactly where it is, but know it wasn't too far from Ely, Cambridgeshire where my parent used to live, so it must be one of the small villages nearby.
Here: https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@52.381831,-0.007657...Not quite as pretty as some here, on the A30 between East Stour and Shaftesbury. The station itself has been made in to a house of sorts.

Wenvoe, north of Barry in South Glamorgan. In the Google Street View from last year the Megane is in the same position but without the rocks.
As I took the picture, at about 6:45 one morning last week, a bloke sidled up to me and asked if I was buying the garage. I got as far as, "Er, no, I'm taking a picture for a thread on a motoring website..." and I could tell he was losing interest.
Isn't that garage full of random old cars now?
Another good one il have to get a photo of lies on the road between Pencoed and llandow near bridgend in South wales

When Google last passed by it was full of cars in various states of disrepair but it's been that solitary Lagane Meguna for a while. Plus, there has been some activity there recently (not just me with my Box Brownie) so I wonder if it may reopen shortly as a lawnmower emporium or somesuch.
Pencoed/Llandow? An unoccupied garage in Llysworney with a preservation order notice was featured quite early on in the thread. There's rich pickings round there.
Looks like we're not the only ones interested in this topic:
