Well what I used to do was roll the mini out up the correct way on the pallet out of the garage and onto the drive. Tip it over onto some old tyres, slide the pallet back under and wheel it back into the single garage to work on.

Then to get it back off and up the correct way again basically the above but in reverse.

Cheers for that mate, I think i'll have to get a pallet from work as I don't think my 3 x 3.5ft dolley will be big enough.

Did you bother with putting anything onto the pallet to stop the panels getting damaged or was that never a problem you had?

I did stick some wood under the roof gutter seam to keep the rear quarter panel up and off the pallet, but other than that it seamed fine
