Very nice. Doors are manual on hinges right; no opener? Curious why you went with the rough aggregate for the floor. That can't be comfortable to roll around on when turning wrenches. My in-laws have similar stone for their driveway and it hurts your feet if you go without shoes.

Hmm, I wasn't that impressed when seeing it in the flesh. It's just too small for me as I need it for business, daily drives and schlepping the family on weekends - having tried the new Panamera, that simply ticked more boxes. And it's brilliant.

Definitely a great choice. Just wanted to hear your perspective. I'm eagerly waiting for my trip to the Porsche museum this summer.

Yes, the doors are 'barn-style' with side hinges. More traditional, plus I like the clean look with no up-and-over mechanism cluttering the inside.

The floor is a stone resin, which runs right through the drive and in to the garage. I'm a designer, so I liked the clean line right the way through - however, I do have various mats that go down if I'm working on the car! The pic shows that line from drive right through to the garage with LEDs in the floor following the line. Aesthetically, looks great (to my eye) but the practicality of a smooth floor would be nice in hindsight. That said, I'm happy with the finished space.

Doors have been invaluable during the dreadful weather we've been experiencing...
