Car storage

[Ken_Code]

Bizarrely my wife has suggested we store one of our cars instead of selling it.

I’d prefer to choose a place that someone is happy to recommend rather than just picking one from Google so is anyone willing to recommend a storage firm within easy reach of either South East London or Newcastle?

Is it mega expensive or a kind of sentimental thing ?

If the later rent a local lock up garage ?

It’s a McLaren 650s, so not crazy expensive but still something that needs to be safe.

A local lock-up would be fine, but being in the stickbroker belt may well cost more than a proper facility outside of London.

My council owned lockup costs me £50 a month to rent. It's dry, secure and in a well lit and gated compound.

Which part of the council did you speak to to get that?

OP, have a think about the need for a power supply to keep the car on a battery conditioner? Lock-up garages won’t have such a thing and the other thing will be how it affects your insurance, especially given the likely value of your car?

Proper car storage is probably in the SE around £250/month...I did a quick search & this was one example... https://hofmanns.co.uk/car-storage/

That’s the sort of thing I’m looking for but it’s too far away. Ideally I’d like something no more than twenty minutes away from SE London or Newcastle.
