Where's yer MINI live?
I just love garages. I could live in my garage. I've searched for threads on garages, but haven't found any here. So I'll start one! Post yer pics! Garage, street, driveway, alley--wherever your MINI sleeps.
What "mods" have you done to your MINI's area??? Heating, A/C, flat-screen TV with the Italian Job on loop??
Here's a somewhat bad shot of my garage. It's the only part of the house still not refurbished to our liking. I've added a workbench, lighting, extra outlets, and some lockers. Oh and a couple neon signs (incl. one "Ebay special" MINI clock), Italian Job poster, some spare MINI parts and photos.
Future plans include: patch all the hundreds of holes in the walls. Remove the previous owner's workout mirrors. Paint every square inch of the walls and ceiling. Install more shelves where mirrors were, including one EXCLUSIVELY for car-care products!!! Epoxy the floor. Maybe add a fog machine and disco ball.

Here's one from another angle. Right before Hurricane Wilma, my wife and I figured with just 5 more feet of length, we could fit both MINIs in our one-car garage, end to end! Sounds like a good winter project......

Mine lives on a driveway or open parking lot 24 hours a day. Florida Sun beating down, torrential down pour or hurricane, that’s where my MCS has lived for over 3 years now.
We have a three car garage, thankfully, and Domino fits perfectly in the third stall! No mods yet to his room, but as soon as there's a warm day (if that will ever happen again
) then this is being sprayed in Flourescent Yellow on the garage floor! I just couldn't bring myself to spray paint the one MINI USA gave me, so I made my own! A black and white checkerboard floor is definitely being taken into consideration...

Fortunately, mine lives in the garage. BTW, what's up with houses these days? Seems like builders are skimping out on space. The house was only built 3 years ago and when I park my MINI inside, I barely have room to open the door. The door always strikes the wall. So I wonder how the heck do you park a normal size car in there. I guess it wasn't meant for a car, instead you're supposed to use it as storage

Here is a bad photos of where my MINI lives. I have a lot of great MINI decorations for the garage but haven't had time to paint it and put them all up.
I'm still not sure how to put the photos right in to the post. Can someone help me with that. I know that's a probably a dumb question but I can't figure it out.
