I have made the same offer to members in the East Anglia region and after much umming and arring it boils down to 5 requirements. I have 2 million pounds worth of public liability insurance included on my existing buildings insurance. I need to train and explain the use of any non hand tools that people may borrow. I do not carry out any actual work on peoples cars (only explain or give facilities). I do not charge for the use. Tools, equipment and buildings are in safe and serviceable condition. I have opened myself to 2 Saturdays a month, tea and bad jokes are free, you bring the bickies.

There is a guy in my neck of the woods up here on the east coast of Scotland that rents out his workshop including a large selection of tools including air tools, bench drills, welding equip and a ramp. He makes it available for £10 an hour (not free but cheap) and is usually around to give advice and an extra pair of hands if needed. It's available between 5pm and midnight Mon-Fri and all day at weekends.
If anyone around these parts ever needs use of the facilities, send me a msg and I will pass on his number. Last edited by wmj; 21st March 2014 at 16:44.. |

Why do you raise the question? Members from London/south might want to drive over to make use of Paul's facilities. I thought this was easy to understand. Private garages with pits are not that common in London. I hope this works out for the good of the members. Have a nice evening

Excellent! I'll bear you in mind, nothing worse than working under the car in the rain!
Where abouts in Banbury are you based? |

On the subject of insurance when arranging a meet at the Coventry transport museum (great venue) last year I was made to take out public liability insurance to cover the meet and also have traffic marshals as we were parked out front in a public place not a car park.
No insurance no meet. It's worth checking just to cover your self. Good luck and thanks for a great offer Rob

Public liability insurance the clue is in the name 'public' not your mates. Someone can sue you for just about anything if they are sad enough , it doesnt mean they will win and they would be liable for costs if they didn't. If you are tinkering with cars socially with a friend and have house insurance it really isnt somerthing to worry about. Lets not get too hung up on 21st century mumbo pleeeeease.
