Has Pistonheads(Gassing Station) had it's day?

[Nibby]

Nice. Has it got any ventilation? Might be worthwhile putting in a couple at high level.

It’s got plenty of ventilation Gaz, I think the way we went from freezing temperatures yesterday, rain this morning and a lot milder was too much to ask for a construction like that. I’ve got a carcoon so next Winter I will put the car in that in the garage.

Never go in general gassing, couple of the sub forums and that's it.

I could do with a laugh, I’m off over there now, back in a bit...

Shame,10 years ago there wasn't the muppets on there like you get today!
The sprogo's who cant even change a bulb, then spend 3 weeks after waffling on about it!

Some of the model specific Maserati FB groups are good. Obviously I like the Biturbo era ones. The newer stuff seems to have people wearing sportswear stood near their car waving some godawful bling.

I forgot I need to choose my words very carefully here. lol

All good thanks Neil. Hope you likewise.
Been building myself a garage, it went well and was able to buy a roller garage door for £75 to finish it off, quite pleased although noticed a bit condensation in this weather we’ve been having recently.View attachment 81278View attachment 81279

Good to read all is well - we're good too thanks. Was wondering what you'd been up to - looks just the ticket. Been lurking? Or have you missed the recent fun and games?

get some celotex and/or kingspan in between studs and did you put a DPM down under the concrete slab?

Hi Neil, been lurking but like most not done too miles recently. The last bit are you referring to Jenny Agutter in a short frock? lol

Yeah I put some dpm under the concrete and will put some Celotex in there, just need to rob a bank to pay for it. (just seen the price of a 2400 x 1200 x 100 sheet, flippin eck)

How many dead poor men is required for a garage floor these days? I am assuming the can be laid horizontally unless load bearing where vertical is required.

celotex/kingspan is expensive but you can use any brand of PIR, Wickes and builders merchants will have the equivalent and far cheaper or you can try ebay as there are always people on there selling left over stock dirt cheap, 50 to 85mm for a garage is fine

you may need to speak to a structural engineer on that one, i'm doing a footings pour soon, if you need anyone taken care of just pm me more than happy as it would save on the sq meterage

Hi, I’m curious to know if you can point me towards the owner of this car (their Instagram handle is fine) as it used to belong to me and it’s obviously almost entirely unrecognisable now!

 

[zagatoes30]

Always avoid the general gassing and move to the specific forum I need, there are some nuggets of info there but its hidden in loads of rubbish

I used sheet Jablite behind 5mm ply in my shed. Works a treat. Jablite is polystyrene and a bit fragile so best protected with ply. Messy bits left over…..

I've just moved over onto Sportmaserati from PH due to the frequent slagging off of other people's views. It feels a little bit like the Mail online.

This is a terrible point of view to be honest and I just can't believe you've said this. Says a lot about who you are tbh smh.

I think it’s got a lot worse since I posted the op.
Zagatoes is right, marque specific is better on there with at least the majority who post singing from the same hymn sheet.
