Good evening all, hope you are well.

I'm currently completing an apprenticeship, and with under 18 months to go, I am looking at treating myself to a car to drive on the weekends/takeaway to shows etc if I get a final placement with my employer. The dilemma is that I wouldn't have anywhere to store said vehicle, since our driveway is already full, with no way to keep another vehicle secure.

Can anyone recommend a car storage facility/garage in the Warwickshire area? It doesn't have to be too posh (e.g. Henry's car barn level), but it MUST be secure and reputable - not a shed behind a dodgy used car garage.

Hopefully such thing exists for a reasonable price...

Regards,

Will

Never used them but this facility is near Warwick. I have considered them myself in case I move to somewhere with less space

I would look at caravan storage places of which there are plenty in south wariwckshire (Southam area). Not sure where you are but:

Holt farm
Kennedy farm


Note: If you are a member of, or close too, our traveller community there are no caravans stored here.

You've told them all about it now.

Thanks for the help all, certainly some good options to consider. If it helps, the car which I'd be looking to purchase and then store when not in use would be a late 90's MGF / TF.

In other words, I'd definitely be prioritising somewhere with a stable climate and somewhere dry (sounds like I'm doing the afternoon weather report now...)

Now that is what I'd be after! Certainly one to consider when the ball starts rolling with the car closer to the time.

Find someone local with a spare garage space or a barn...

The idea of storing an MGF/TF (worth what £3k) at one of these "customer comes first" storage areas with Lamborghinis/Ferraris in the photos, seems a completely unnecessary and disproportionate cost of ownership, especially on an apprentice wage.

Feel free to tell me I am wrong.
