    :lol: :lol:

    Might be worth getting a second roller door installed inside to enclose your tool storage!!!

    How about an extractor fan system, to circulate the air so if u put a damp car in there it don't rot everything!! Plus it would be handy to remove fumes from either, painting, engine, etc....

    I think for the amount of earth it had to move it cost the builder about 650? (inc lorry to remove earth).
