Here's a few from near me, long since gone, that I've done a bit of Googling on. I might head down to a couple and take some proper photos.
Now looks like this (how the bloody hell do I embed the image?) - following a minor fire. https://goo.gl/maps/HsN5P6wCGHT2
Is now under here, I think - progress! It was at one point attached to a Talbot (!) garage. https://goo.gl/maps/vuugif1W4XJ2
From the riverside at Stockton -
I think is now here - was once a Dutton Forshaw Jaguar garage before it was demolished. I may be off by half a block, I'm trying to remember...

I have a couple more to dig out, at least one of which is in spitting distance from the house so I'll go hunting in daylight...

Tiny Ford dealerships in small towns and villages are a great sub genre of this thread. While they have a larger site just outside the town (but still pretty small), I like this tiny showroom in the middle of Stone, Staffordshire. It's empty here but there's usually one or two used cars in it.https://www.google.com/maps/@52.9014027,-2.1470312...
