....have to keep their pride and joy parked on the road?

Not after any details like location just wanted to gain a perspective on how many, like myself, don't have the luxury of a garage

Have told the missus that the next house is gonna have a garage.....and I don't care if it is just a large garage

Mine is safely locked in our garage-when I was back in the UK I parked on the street in Wells, Somerset (not exactly crime central) and some toe rag keyed it. I also found some local scummy neds looking at it at 1am- we explained what the consequences would be for them were we to find anything stolen or damaged and they went away looking worried.
I wouldn't park mine on the street- rent a garage.

I also do not have the luxury or a driveway or a garage. the car seems to be a magnet for all the locals kids. Luckily for me they all like the car and see to it that nothing happens to it.

On the road as well. I've had it about 4 months and it's been keyed twice and two sets of dust caps have gone AWOL....

...don't get me started on the dust caps!

Anyway, next house has definitely got to have at least a driveway but preferably a garage.

Because it's on the road I'm loathed to do any real mechanical work on it. If I had a driveway I wouldn't have a problem leaving it over night on ramps/axle stands.

off the road parking, i think it is no good coz the stone chip will jump up to ur baby's body when other vehile going through. there is 2 marks on left door of my scooby. And then i move to another house which has a very big garage. safy then. Sometimes i went back late, the garage was occupied by my room mate, i will park my bab in my sight near the window. Tricky

Mines parked in a car park opposite my house, not had any problems yet - touch wood! Mind you, everyone knows my car & my husband gets told off for driving it if anyone sees him....

Mines kept on the street and touch wood has been fine - Im OK if I get home from work early and I can get a spec outside the house.
I could do with some Boswell cones to put out when Im not here )
