Who Garages their C overnight?

[timg60 0]

I dream of a garage. Or even a drive for that matter.

We have to park our baby anywhere we can. Sometimes can be about 15mins walk away.

When I get the body sorted am considering investing in one of those super alarms that pages you if she is tampered with.

where's my bl**dy builder! will probably do an 'extending my garage' thread when he eventually turns up

so mine swap round week by weekish between the garage and the car park at work

When I finally get round to buying a garage, i mean house and garage, i mean house :) It will definately have to have a nice garage attached to the house or at least with power. As u say. Priorities :)

I was in garage heven until i had to move to Bristol. @ my Peeps house i had a double garage to my self because mum could not get her camper in and Dad had a company car (it was a Laguna) I had a R/control in the car to open the door while driving and an electric switch to open the door from the house. Now I have a drive about 6ft 1 wide which takes an age to reverse onto. I think that I'm being punished for living so well before.

Guess i'm pretty lucky, my garage has power 'n everything. Wish I knew about more about mechanics to be able to do some operations on my C! :oops:

Why do I find the "if she tampered with" so funny?

My garage external but on the front of my house. When I moved in I had an Exup and FJ1200 so I took a 15" grinder to the wall and cut a doorway in it so I could see the bikes from the living room. Now the bikes have gone my car goes in every night. I not only have carpet on the wall where the door opens but the floor is done front to back. Comfy in the winter!. However the best toy has to be a remote control opener bought for £80 out of the local paper. Its good to drive into the street press the button and drive straight in.

[Trig 0]

I want one of those remote things, is yours just a motor that pulls the door open then?

[Exup Man 0]

Yes. Fits in the centre on the ceiling. I have an up and over door so it needs an extra lift arm.

i quess it could seem funny if you imagine it being said in a worzel / west country type accent :)

I live in a block of 6 flats, but there plenty of space. I use the space hidden most away from the street, and all the neighbours know not to even think of parking within door banging distance of the rado! :wink:

Heheh, myself and scarlett are only renting but we wouldn't take anywhere that didn't have at least a drive! Eventually managed to get a place that has garage and just about enough driveway for two cars! Except that now the garage is full of junk, and I still have to park the VR round the corner cos the rat's on the drive... :roll:

[ZippyVR6 0]

Not for long though eh? Found a buyer then?

[gradeAfailure 0]

Yup, but then Laura's'll be getting garaged and the driveway will be taken up with my VR and the V6 Audi we're getting as a runabout... Leather and aircon too... ;)

 

I have no issues whatsoever with parking my C on the road, body is already dinged so not worried about a couple more...!

Yip - Always in the garage when at home. Live in a top area, but she deserves to sleep safe and sound :)

I do!!! It keeps the car out of Pikey sight and protects it from the weather.

A nice double garage with RCD protected power ... drempt of this for ages, but I'm in heaven now :-)

[PBSTORM 0]

I have a garage, but I currently park it on the drive.

 

Too much hassle in the mornings!!

 

After the summer though, it's going to be a weekend car, so it'll be locked away then...

Mine has always lived in a garage. Would like to heat the garage but can't really justify the electric bill

Once a year then !! :lol:

If (when) I get another C it will have its own garage. Where i've moved to has an allocated garage.. combining that and the nice area i'm in now, my car insurance is CHEAP.

 

I got a price for a 1.8 16v and it was £320 fully comp! Bring it on! :)

[g60greeny 0]

[Jim 2]

Already owned a G.. don't want another for now :)
