Storage sought for TR3A


Recommended Posts

Hello,

Hope everyone well.

 

Since my father passed away I've been the proud owner of his 1959 TR3A. I'm trying hard to keep it in the family!

 

I live in a flat in London so no hope of local parking but I'm trying to find a safe storage place. Its been looked after by Mark up near Norwich (Classic Marks Sports Cars) until recently but needs to find a new home for at least 12-18 months. Happy to pay but some of these long term storage folks seem more geared to the Ferrari owners!

 

Any ideas?

 

Hope everyone well

This was on my local Streetlife website recently, I don't know them, but if you want to follow it up It's very close to me and I could have a look at the set-up for you.

 

 

"I have space within my own Classic Car store close to Junction 10 of M20 if any is interested please mail me neville.brooker@googlemail.com Regular maintenance available.....start ups and full valeting service."

Well, if it's purely storage for that term, you're more than happy to store it here with us in Holland! I can provide you with a heated and permanently overlooked storage. Granted, it's 90mins from the Hook of Holland, so perhaps not 'en route', but it's a possibility!

I know a lock up in Putney for about £200 per 1/4. It has a locking gate to the car park area and there are about 20 garages servicing the block of flats. There are sometimes vacancies. My own 3A was there for about 10 years.

 

Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks to all of you for your useful suggestions.

 

Menno - I was hoping for somewhere a little more local! But your kind offer is greatly appreciated.

Steve - thanks for the info - I'll mail the chap directly.

 

Richard - your lockup sounds great. Can I come and visit you both? You can reach me on edward[AT]abarisa.com. [AT] being a good substitute for @. thanks! Or you can message me here.

 

thanks to you all - your responses have been hugely helpful

Menno, if I dumped (errrr I mean stored) my TR3a in your garage for the winter, would it, like in the tale of the Elves and the Shoemaker, come out in the spring all shine and new !!!!

Sure! Just put a nice large bag with Kruger Rands or similar in the on the passenger seat! And your car will be like new again!

Careful, Austin -- those Continental cars have a way of turning bright blue on their owners!
