haha I was going to say..

just scan your local scumtree / ebay and you will surely find someone giving away a garage for pretty much free. I built a delux version using two garages and linking them together.

My last one was the same.
diy concrete slab.
put an advert in gumtree for wanted marley sectional garages, free removal.
got loads of phone calls, ended up with 6 single garage worth of panels.
only catch is you need to dispose of the asbestos roof.
Contact the local council on their policy, double rouble bag and label. Usually free disposal if you can get rid all in one go as they dont think its a company then.

sold the extra panels to pay for the ebay roller door £300

Diy roof trusses and concrete tiles.

still standing at my old house 8 years later.
