Storage
« on: February 17, 2024, 11:50:21 AM »
I'm off to live on Guernsey, but not for ever, but for an unknown time period. Leaving mid-April. Decided it's inappropriate to take my Beta, but am not quite ready to part with it. Relinquishing my lockup. Storage costs will be £4.00 per day plus VAT. Too pricey for me. Is there anyone out there who'd be willing, & able to store it, start it, drive it, enjoy it, for me. Ideally living in the South or South East. Can fly to Bristol & Exeter as well as Gatwick. I would visit. Is this a crazy idea. Am I mad!? Jono.

If you sell you will struggle to replace it in the current market, so no, definitely not mad.....

Hi Jono,
I'm assuming there's little chance of finding an affordable garage in Guernsey, as it's a good place
to keep a classic.
I wish I could help but don't know of anyone around me that would have covered space.
Yours is a Beta worth cherishing, and I hope you manage to find a suitable spot.

Best regards ongoing...
