You might be able to sneak it in without her seeing it but all of us coming around with our mini's to use it might be a giveaway .

Be a briliant idea though , a mates family who are into MG's in a big way have their own hoist , I'm more jealous of their facilities than I am of their cars :twisted:

My mechanic has a hoist in his garage. Had to lower the floor to do it.

Would be pretty bloody useful to have your own at home. 8)

we have the next-best-thing at my dad's place.. a ~6 foot deep pit in the garage floor, with lighting, ladder and water pump for the rainy season. it's brilliant for bleeding brakes, oil changes, replacing rear gear change mounts etc etc.

That sounds like a DIY grave! :shock:

Got pics? It's actually quite an interesting idea...

Its not an un-common idea. Its how you will see buses get serviced. If I were to build another house I would build one of those in it. They will also make a good gimp cage if you're not into cars.
