The wooden one was the originally there and I did think about plonking the new one over it. In the end I dismantled it and then rebuilt it with the flat roof for storage. I ran a partion wall up the centre too, so it's two singles.
Me too! My Dad bought that one 33 years ago but the V8 is out at the moment for a bit of fettling. Also the T2000 was bought new by my Grandfather in '68, then my parents' car in the early '70s and the DB was Dad's too.
My sister in law's boyfriend sent me this last night of the shed that's at the house they've bought in Dungannon.
8.5m wide by 14m long, used to be a joinery workshop hence the extract ducting. Even has a stove for heat
Whereas I'm doing servicing in the dark on a gravel driveway cause my own garage is too small to fit the car in
He doesn't know it yet, but I'm going to relocate my Audi 80 shell down to live next to that stove
nice, have just ordered something similar and that width looks perfect
Who from?

With a width of 40ft, that will be shed perfection.
Mines 35' wide and I think any smaller would be a ballache 40' would be perfect.
Im currently in the progress of groundworks for an extension. As im putting in a 2 post lift and my shed is fairly short. Going to add on another few meters to the front and a lean to off the side with a low ceiling for a toilet and a wee area for tidier work.
Hopefully start "erecting" it next spring. lol

Nice pieces machinery you've got there!
You can't beat a fully insulated shed like that. When I told the guy building mine I wanted the insulated sheeting to go to the ground rather than block walls at the bottom, he thought I was mad. Once it was built and he was able to experience it, he said it was the best decision and he built one the same at his own place

Block wall definitely has benefits. I'm very careful reversing a car up close to the sheeting. For that very reason, I don't let my wife park in my shed

Amazing what a lick of paint car do! Wiring work under way, old high bay lights removed and new LED low energy ones installed. Fire alarm system also being installed to keep building control happy.

We tried to buy that place to do up and sell last March or April. The woman selling it took so long after the offer was accepted (think there was a divorce in progress) we pulled out after about 12 weeks waiting for their solicitor to even acknowledge the sale! Loads of potential for the place. Asbestos flue on the back of that range in the shed! There's another half built shed beside it that won't be hard to finish.

Tonight's little project. Some adjustable shelves mounted behind the garage door, space that was never used for anything useful.
Screwfix frame and then some cheap ass b&q kitchen shelves I cut in half then painted the ends of. Pretty pleased with it
Think it shall be used for the car cleaning stuff!
