The lift is something I am considering the garage (we just moved), but working on lighting, gas heater, and indoor hot/cold spigot. I want to wash cars in my garage. The floor is pitched enough and I will squeegee the rest out.

I drove the XK a couple of winters, but when it got real cold out, the passenger door would not close. The mechanism would freeze and it was either heat gun or strapping the door shut the inside until warmed were my options.

I'd drive the Evora all year, but don't want to put on all seasons or invest in snow tires. I can dream about driving it from Christmas to the Ides of March.
