bloody garage
Nipped down to the garage i rent of the council to give the roadster a once over and its damp as a damp thing, and obviously leaky. (The garage not
the car) Took months to find a place to the store the car, and to be honest it wouldnt be too worse of outside with a cover, need to look for
somewhere else to store it. Dont get much for 40 quid a month though, even in lincolnshire.
Life moves pretty fast, if you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I assume you'll be asking the council to sort it
but look on the bright side - at least yours won't be leaking as much as mine

Get a shipping container. Well pleased with my two. Just popped over to make sure all was well - not a hint of condensation inside!

Chris,
what sort of price do those containers cost? and how wide are they... cant see how a seven would fit in one of those!
We gain knowledge faster than we do wisdom!
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in
sideways, thoroughly used, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming... "f*ck, what a trip!"

they cost about £800-1000 dropped off at your place, but you should be able to sell it for simular when finished, make sure you get one with
insulation roof or you will get condensation.

The regular size is 8ft wide by 8ft high. 'high cube' are 9.5ft high. You can get 40ft or 20ft length.
I got two delivered, both 40ft, one regular height one high cube, for £3200. That seemed fair. I pay a tenner a week per container to a farmer to keep
them on his land. No insulation in them, but I do have them raised 3ft up off the ground on concrete blocks so they don't get damp rising up
from the ground.
Add a lock box - there's a guy on eBay that sells them - and they're pretty secure too.
