Does anyone have any!?

I'm currently paying £100 a month for the Citroen (secure indoor storage in an air chamber) and the old Golf GTI is standing out in the rain.

I'm looking for somewhere I can keep both, prefereably close to Skipton (as in within 20 mins drive or so)

Does anyone have anything / know of anyone who may be willing to help? I'm quite happy to pay of course, would just like something where I can go and have a tinker when I feel like it.

Alternatively, if anyone local fancies renting something as a group I'd be well up for it. I've found a few 1000 sq/ft units that are in the region of £5K pa.

Cheers,

Ben

Ben I've just secured myself a premises in Knaresborough which is only 53sqm but it's half the building, the other half is available which is about the same size

It will probably get 3-4 cars if it's just for storage, I'm only planning on having one length ways in mine...

I'll be next door which will have part time storage available if there is space!

I'll be down there Friday to have the floor priced up, could meet down there as I've got the keys for next door too..

Price is less than you've found so far, but admittedly half the size!

Hi Tom,

That sounds interesting - thanks.

Could do Friday meet no problem.

Any chance you could drop me an email with rough idea of cost?

Cheers,

Ben

The owner told agent not to put a price on it (idiots.) I offered 10k and was told they'd turned down 30k straight away.

Its a great place so don't mind if it stays, just looking at options where I can work on it and have access at weekends.

Good, the chap that runs it is a really nice bloke, him and his daughter are serial polishers.
