I remember italiancar(a)gmail.com (SteveH) saying something like: > >Although most of my neighbours are (or have) converted the garage to a >2nd lounge - so that probably answers my question above. Conversely, in my ShiteOldTerrace I was seriously considering converting the front room to a garage. Tickled I was recently to see somebody had done just that.

My enduring memory of that model is of the local dealer who told me he was being ear-bashed by some owner who thought it was running wrong when it wasn't (reckoned it should go faster), and handed it back to him with a piece of gaffer tape obscuring the P' on the badge. -- BMW K1100LT Ducati 750SS Honda CB400F Triumph Street Triple Suzuki TS250ER GN250 Damn, back to six bikes!

I just hope I can get the garage door shut... I've got an old piece of plasterboard for exactly the same reason (polystyrene face out) for when I back the Audi into the garage as the reversing beeper (dunno what you call it in English) always goes to the constant tone with at least 20cm space. Works a treat. -- Cab |
