I like the floor tiles. Where were they from and how do they go down? Are they dura?

Nice job

Garage looking good there pvr ................looking forward to end result when furniture in.:)

Only issue I can see is that you may have to fight back the urge to constantly line up edges of tyres to achive perfect aligned parking

Oh & gents. for those wanting the AW8/mogsy hair look.......I can do appointments or special surprise makeovers ;)

Excellent job there Mr PVR. I do like that a lot.

I did look at similar but in the end managed to get some heavy duty industrial rubber times for £100 INDIAN...lol. Will take a pic.
