Hopefully I'll get less visits from the council in response to complaints that I'm running a business from home! If I were I could save thousands in rent & rates for my Units here!

I really wonder what they'll make of it when I raise the roof! I'm sure the council will be round to measure the height at some point.

I bet that if you had an e-type or similar rather than an offroader the it would be a different matter!

you could try planting some conifers or trees but then I guess that would be another molehill to make a mountain of

There's always someone complaining. My thoughts - if you don't like it don't look.
If you're not rubbing peoples noses in it i fail to see the problem. As others have said, if you were restoring some sort of classic it would be different.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

I think you're absolutely right about the classic car thing. People view 4x4's as evil (unless they need taking to work in the snow!).

This weekend I finished the support structure. Still waiting for the last two polycarb roofing sheets to arrive - but I was able to test it - and do a bit more work on the Jimny project.

Here's a bit of video of it in motion!
