Currently i still live with the parents and they have a single drive, which is shite concrete, but still enough room (chop the front garden) to make a double driveway. Anyone who has had a double driveway before (brick paving) what price did you pay?

I didn't realise that CS had such a young membership.
No offence intended but, you look a bit short mate - how'd you reach the pedals? even in a Corsa?

Oh, and you should try to copy your Dad and keep the water on the car and off your head

That's one fat cat too

I've got about 6 driveways i can use The flats i live in have a single driveway for 2 flats but there is about 20 flats so that's 10 driveways and only 4 of us have cars

My parents (a house next door) only has one driveway and 2 cars so one is normally on the road getting bashed by the little shits called kids -- but i'm using Mums C3 at the moment so it's on my drive safeish

My drive is big enough for roughly 6 or 7 cars. When we done it abuot 4 years ago we got quotes of 8-9k all in, but me and my Dad did it ourselves and it only cost 4k for the cobbles.
