£100K Garage needs you!

What would you spend your imagined £100K on in the PH classifieds?



Since we ran our first £100K Garage story back in April we've been inundated with PHers wanting to share theirs. And it's made for fascinating reading! Keen to keep the stories coming we'd like to invite you to come up with your own and share it with us too - we'll publish the best ones we get on the PH homepage. You could 'spend' the money on a 'seven piece British toolbox' like PHer Simon Carr or perhaps just splash out on a couple of big ticket dream cars like the Aston Vanquish and TVR Sagaris selected by Eric van Spelde. Or maybe you'd like to mess with the formula and come up with a dream fleet for just £10K like Ian Marsh did just before Christmas. The floor is yours!

Word to the wise too - don't all send them in at once because much as we'd love to run them all sometimes we get a bit of a backlog and by the time we get round to processing the story cars featured have sometimes sold. We'll do our best to source alternatives but if you've wanted to do one take your time, ponder the alternatives and then send it across. We'd prefer a flow rather than a flood so it could be worth biding your time...

Full details of what's required and how to send your picks across can be found via this handy template. Thanks to everyone who's submitted one so far and apologies to anyone whose selection didn't get published - there have been points where we've simply had too many stories to put up.

We look forward to hearing what's on your dream shopping list!

Must be some backlog you have there, I emailed mine to you 4 months ago and haven't seen it. I hope for the people selling the cars I'd listed they shifted them by now hehe

Being limited by PH ads only is stopping me from submitting; made my perfect one but contains used cars direct from manufacturer, not on PH.

I enjoyed doing my 10K 5 car garage but the bloody cars sell much quicker at that end of the market place so my recommendation is give PH the heads up with what you have planned so they can be ready to go to press as soon as they get it.....

Someone in another thread suggested a 25K garage as alternative to a "white goods" car Goof/astray/insert others - I liked that that idea too although it was more than I'd spend

Why would they want to market a competitor service?

Afternoon all,

Thanks to those who've submitted their garages already; we've got enough for the next couple of weeks so if you were keen to do one I'd advise holding off for a little while and sending across at some point after that.

It's a tricky one because we're super chuffed to get loads of them in but as raised we can't post them all at once and if the cars sell we sadly have to put them on the spike.

Ideally we can just get a steady flow coming in and supply will match demand!

Cheers,

Dan

Not saying they should, I'm just waiting until the cars I like are on PH! eg Caterham Supersport R, none on PH.

Don't see why, just available on the PH classifies should do it.

Nope! Anything's allowed, just as long as it's on the PH classifieds!

I see. I emailed eBay links to my £100K that must be why you didn't publish them. wink
