Bit small
Nice garage
Shocking. Plan is to use it as a one car garage and have the other half as a workshop/hobby space etc. It’s deep enough that you could have work benches and a second car parked and just move the car out if you needed the space.
Pipe fan eh?
Waiting for my crypto to go to Mars mate.

Perfect wet weather companion to my 4C. No mods yet bar the mudflaps.
was expecting to see an Alfa
but then i saw a lovely Yaris GR and i went
Nice!!@Chris1712 - The Yaris GR must be a hoot up cheddar gorge! Some belting roads around there. Enjoy!
SEXY!Finally got one. She’s filthy, but here’s a pic of her best asset while I clean her up.
It’s an absolute joy!
I know you weren't asking me, but yes its a B8.
Yes.
The RS estates have always been one of my dream family car and I’m pleased it’s meeting expectations.
It could be rose tinted confirmation bias, but in comfort it feels more comfortable than my old F31 on the motorway. Some people had written about the lack of torque but they are obviously used to much faster cars - more than enough to cruise along.
First job, I need to get it corrected and coated.
And possibly get a steering lock

Did not bother but not much difference on a distance shot like that but close up the plastics had a lot of engrained dirt but some spray cleaner and agitation with a brush removed most of it, then finished with a dash clean and leather care for door cards and seats. Just got carpet left to do and then another hoover and get glove box fitment better.
Also fixed the passenger door not unlocking, bit of white grease on mechanism and rods and it now unlocks first time and easily.
Removed T tops so gonna clean and polish those up later, also treated all the rubber seals with Honda Shinetsu grease as tends to work wonders.
As soon as weather gets nicer I’ll give it a thorough external wash and will then work on polishing and waxing paintwork.
Also silicon sealed all the hub caps on so I don’t lose any on our pot holes and all the tyres had 36psi in them which must have been tyre fitters and explains harsh ride as they should be 20psi front and 26psi rear according to door jam so I’ve set them at 22 and 28 as a starting point.
