looks plenty big enough to me

cars can be washed outside then wheeled in under the lights to be polished etc

fair play for wanting to do it full time....i get knackered after doing one a week!!! although i only charge mates rates so i reckon the Ł200+ odd quid going rate may soften the blow

will you be supplying products??

Sorry Alex but I agree....

Good idea to picture it with a tiny car to make it look bigger

Good luck with what ever you are up to


Simon
you must have large garages (cira 10x4m)... good on you!

But you can't trade from it
10m x 4m would be lost in mine.

just dont let it get like this!!


fuckinhell Tim you cleaned it up a bit then before takin this pic
