Built a new garage especially for Monty - just finished putting the electrics in this weekend so now I can see to polish it all night !

Got a garage but I keep my 55 Chevy (in bits) in there, and
There’s just enough room to squeeze my bike in as well. You
Try getting insurance on a big bike without it been garaged at night (Nightmare/very expensive), so the poor MINI has to live on my drive. Had to have the drive extended/widened as I’ve always parked on the road but when I ordered the Cooper there was no-way she was going to live on the road

the first thing i did after i picked up my MINI was clean out the garage. fortunately, it didn't require a lot of cleaning since the MINI is so short and i only had to clear enough space to get it inside my garage.

no dings yet...

I'd probably save on the rent and sleep in the MINI.

She'll be in our driveway, I am a bit worried as this cat has taken to hanging out on the roof of our cars, bad enough but yesterday I watched in horror as this mangy beast proceeded to vomit onto the roof of my dad's car.

Still better that poor xplode's MINI at least I'm pretty sure nobody will urinate on her.

Oh dear I hope I didn't give you one more thing to worry about.

My S , when it arrives next month , will be parked on the patio where I can sit in comfort and admire it !
That is when I am not out burning rubber .
I was considering throwing out the dining table etc .....

In the garage, along with my F150 truck and the Harley. The MINI is the only car short enouth to do that. Oh, and the Ducati sit in the house entry way on a rear stand. Looks cool and the kids really get a charge out of it at Trick-Or-Treat time

2300 miles on my red/white MC and love it.

Garage is full of a shell and parts from a Mini 1275LS waiting a rebuild - could be years away. So the MINI stays in the back shed.

I'm very fortunate. It's garaged at home and at work.
