winter hibernation

[Fraz]

aha one of them cocoon things ....very nice, lucky you have the room in your garage

[m00k]

i know was panicking... knew it was big enuff but wasnt sure if it wud allow the side door to open as i didnt wanna have to move everything from the left hand side to the right side... had mounted ladders etc on the wall, fits in perfect and will also stop ppl from accidently knocking into car etc aswell... awesome

Is there a dehumidifier in there?

That's one cosy car for the winter.

[m00k]

no dehumidifier, it has 2 fans at the back with the idea that a constant flow of air stops condensation forming and there preventing corrosion, it does have filters on the fans also for dust etc

[Mark1]

Oh I so wish I could mine away like that for the winter.

Do you leave the windows/hatch open? And run the engine sometimes?

[m00k]

yeah windows are dropped slightly i didnt leave boot open tho as i'd have concerns for a mouse have traps and poison laid all over the place tho!!

yeah i get to turn the engine over and also a brief run now and then to keep brakes etc in good working condition also dont leave it parked up wi handbrake on to prevent it seizing

[v6 steve]

that looks cool wish i had the space to leave mine in one of thoes all winter

[m00k]

yeah i've been lucky that way with my folks getting my grans house and building a decent garage but then never used it!!!!

theyve talked about selling the house before but wi the market the way it is i doubt they will ( hope they don't at least)

My local dealer told me No.
I'd love to hear of someone that can get them as mine are badly worn

[Vxlgsi]

Maybe somone like Autostyle can replicate them!
