Re: Lockup Garages aka Rocking Horse Shite

£440 a quarter is a complete bargain. Try living in a country were 80% live in flats/apartments.

Here... €200 a month for a single garage + electric/water.

As Dan said, ask locally. I found a place by asking the local mechanic. He knew a guy!

Re: Rose-tinted glasses?

I daily drive my e30 in Germany & it’s on the autobahn 6 days a week. Certainly not the fastest thing on the road.... but it will do 110mph on the daily commute, which is enough for me. Lucky enough to drive silly modern cars in work but don’t feel the itch for something modern or feel short changed...

Stroker reliability?

This subject will have been talked to death already but it's 2020, many years will have passed since most have already completed their builds and I'd be interested in hearing people's long term experience.

A solid 3. Two are mine (1.5 might be more accurate).

Potentially many more but I don’t know/remember the name of the owners or if they still have them.
