Hi Guys

Due to moving in with my girlfriend shortly (Who has a garage I can use) I will have surplus to requirements my perambulator type portable garage. The pictures show my old E85 model but the E89 fits too and so will larger cars if you drive in rather than reverse. This is the heavy gauge canvas version which cost me over £700 about 6 months ago.. I'm looking for £350 which considering its perfect condition and age is very reasonable I think.

The buyer will need to take away but I'm happy to assist with the dismantling which is quite straight forward.

It will be available from early September if anyone is interested.

I'm pretty interested also and about an hour away, could pick up monday.
I assume these need some fixings into the ground, can you elaborate on what's involved?
Thanks

Hi Tom

Pastry has first dibs at present but yes you do need to fix it down although it is stand alone and quite substantial. Its just to stop high winds moving it really.

As I said in my original post it will not be available until late August / early September as I will still be using it until then.

Personally I would sell while the buyers are ready. The cars not going to suffer from a month outside during the Summer.
Great idea for the Winter

Guys

Thanks for your comments, its not a deterioration issue.... I live out in the country so the car will get covered in dust and pollen etc that blows across from the fields.. I'm just saving myself the hassle of continuous washing :)

I'm going to reluctantly decline this! It will obscure my neighbours window and after having a chat with him it isn't worth falling out with good neighbours.
Thanks for your time Ray :thumbsup:
