Often people just go for it and are not caught with garages, extensions, fences etc, then if its been there for more than 5 years they cannot make you tear it down.

Choice of material is irrelevant, a garage is a garage, and requires planning unless its at the side or rear and meets a number of criteria.

Once you contact planning they will keep and eye out, you might be better off getting a sectional garage then at least its easy enough to dismantle and sell on if you wanted to take the gamble.
Thanks mate,appreciated.

If I claimed it was a "shed",which I can easily make it look like,do you think I'd stand a better chance?

I might say fuck it as if they do ask me to take it down,I cab always rebuild it out the back and the boy can use it as a summer house!!!
