Martinod, we have a garage set away from the house I usually use, however when it do rarely snow in Cardiff, my Daughter ( who seems to love her BMW’msport 3 , 5 , currently 22d) always uses the garage.
Reson being the bloody hill, slopes with bends to get out from her home are a nightmare.
Your not alone every one around her usually leave their cars as you say far from their homes at the top.
Now problem being it’s always me got to go pick her up to get her car from ours, usually at the top of the hill though.
