Most people don't put cars in garages in the UK as they're too small unless they have a double, I don't even have a garage.

Never put a car in the garage, my late father used them for that in the 50,s but since no. Cars under a canopy, only to stop birds etc. From using them for target 🎯 practice

Re: Whats in your garage? -- Cableforum car show!!

My Garage is absolutely full with the kids bikes, a ladder, pots of paint, my drills and DIY bits and pieces, Garden furniture, outdoor chairs, rucksacks for when we go out on walks, shoes and wellies, Jet washer, wood, cables, saws, and got a big family tent in there too.


The gaarage is a lot smaller as we used half of it for the utility room.
I really need to find a cupboard or add extra shelving to put everything away neatly.

Re: Whats in your garage? -- Cableforum car show!!

I must be lucky as my Ford Puma fits nicely into mine. I also have a Freezer, Tumble Dryer (not in use due to costs) and a chest of drawers that is used for DIY stuff. Also 2 bikes (although 1 is hanging on the wall). Then I have all sorts of gardening tools, lawn mower, power washer etc.


Saying that out of the 5 houses in my terrace I am the only one that uses it for the car.

My Dad's house has double garage but with two single doors, so still has issues getting a modern car in.

Re: Whats in your garage? -- Cableforum car show!!

Most garages are crying out to be turned into a man cave with a bar, TV, and all the things you want in there.
