Have also seen those that need to trailer their cars around can find difficulties with the wide Group 4 rears. In some cases, they have to fit a set of narrower wheels just to get the car on the trailer. Some others have trailers or transporters that are wide enough.
i have the garage covered. I tell myself as I was hammering into 6ft of hardcore at the weekend this is actually part of my stratos build process. You see for one reason and another I?ve never had good garaging. I built my caterham by torchlight in a small wooden garage at my last house. The garage I have right now can house the Alfasud only plus workshop and I restored my mx5 on a gravel drive - which isn?t very nice but you never ever leave a sud outside. Painting outside is, erm challenging.

So I have been fairly relaxed about the wait for my kit as last autumn I secured planing permission for a four car two story garage. One of the oak frame ones. This is almost as exciting as the stratos.
