Been doing all repairs on my cars all my life――if only practical and doable in a parking spot. Learned from repair manuals and mostly by disassembling and reassembling myself. Using outdoors space is a bit limited with fluids, when working underneath the car, and for longer repairs. But because I really like doing mechanical work and because I also want to avoid becoming a bitter old man who never got to do enough fun stuff beyond coding I bought a private garage with enough space for installing a car lift. I can then do multi-day repairs and enable myself to do practically anything I ever want on my cars. And yes, to maintain my motorcycle as well. Yeah, it&#x27;s a bit of an investment but as a city-dweller I&#x27;m not able to enjoy the benefit of a regular garage in a detached house.
