will get a pic tomoz,but the garage aint mine lol
I'm quite fortunate, I built a "large" garage before I built the house to keep the kit and stuff in.....so I have 1800sq.ft of garage. This pic is standing against the back wall.

I want a black & yellow chequer painted floor in my garage. A 2 poster ramp & a pukka heater/AC unit for cold days. Loads of p0rn & a decent radio + toilet nearby & a microwave for heating up doughnuts.
i sleep in my garage....gets cold at times!
wish i had a garage still though, could have stored both my cars in my now bed room!
would save a hell of alot of not needed rust issues! grrr
How much is everyone paying for the units? £500 + rates in mine :(
Shivic is not mine, was the people that had the unit before

Shame its so cold.
Working warms you up.
Not when your lazy like me.
Kinda shows it all. Dad and I built it and both are cars are in there. No really they are. Still get wireless from the house so I can stream my music, heating, power and water - happy days. Sooo much tidier now my projects kind of finished, but wwe have Dad's to start.

this is my area at the moment. we really want to move to somewhere where we can build a massive garage but for now it will have to do.

tools hung up behind this
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i184/L33LEG/new%20house%20project/P1011290.jpg
you can see a hole in the wall at the back, that is where i have 2 rooms which is full of nova stuff, only pic i have is when i first discovered it and put the floor down. the rooms are the width of the garage but only 4ft tall Lol
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i184/L33LEG/new%20house%20project/house044.jpg
also use the left hand side of my dads shed to put bonnets and other panels in and behind the shed i have about 4 sets of wheels and exhaust, tanks etc Lol
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i184/L33LEG/the%20nova%20project/P1011322.jpg
and have also got plenty of space outside. at the moment i have the 2 bimmers parker on the right side by side can also get the nova out the garage without any problems
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i184/L33LEG/the%20bm%20cabby%20project/cab020.jpg
however, we are trying to work out how we can make an extension and have more space for cars :wtf:

good good. Dad was speaking to him at Gurston last year in fact. The engine in this one is 998cc on T40's producing 118bhp. Dad purchased the engine 30 years ago whilst riding back down Gurston hill with one of the competors who had it for sale. It was a spare race engine - never used.
I've been itching to finish it for him for years, but he said I couldn't hence why I started the nova. Now I'm going to finish the G15 if he likes it or not lol
EDIT: is this his?

Andy's G15 is still competitive at Gurston, if I remember rightly he's been into the 37 second bracket with a 1.1 litre engine. My best is 33.87 in my 2.0 turbocharged Escort............the photo below is me trying too hard at Gurston in an attempt to better my best;

my favourite out of them all, looks more like a house than a garage.
im quite fortunate with the garage at my dads house its pritty large, big enough to have my nova in there with both doors open. with pritty much everything i could ever need. were extending it at the moment to be two cars long, and going to dig a pit as ive had enough of lying on the floor.
will try to post pics tonight.
Hayden, are you a mechanic? if not that's an impressive garage for a none mechanic!
Im sure he said he built it before he built his house, said he used it to store the matierials/tool/equip in IIRC??

No, im not a mechanic. Believe it or not im a farmer....? been tinkering with cars since i was 12. Built the workshop about a year ago and been trying to set up on myself, doing engine conversions, restorations, fabricating stuff! My old man spent most of his life restoring classic cars and i picked up the bug from him. If anyone's local (or not) and wants anything doing , by all means give me a shout ?
New garage coming soon......
i should hopefully have new pics of me garage today with some stuff in for perspective

Got a prefeb but knocking it down next year and building a 16ft x 36ft garage at the bottom off my garden.
Hobbit, we should have taken a pic of the garage as at 11:30 last night lol
Yeah right lol the nova wont be going in there for a while.
Get that mk4 Ashtray out of there then :d poor nova deserves to be under shelter lol
The nova is still in Cornwall at a mates garage having some work. The garage is now full of boxes after the move.
that corsa combo is annoyingly awesome :p
