Great job guys! I would definitely consider wheel arch boxes and mounting the battery and water tank on those to maximise garage space.

Starting to take shape guys, looking good. Can I suggest a bit of coloured Perspex for the back of the ikea unit that faces out towards the door to hide the back panel. Nice easy cheap fix that’ll look good

Thank you! Yes we want to hide it somehow, coloured Perspex good call!

I used marine ply for added stability on my IKEA cabinet I tried self adhesive floor tiles and self adhesive wall tiles but sadly the heat makes the glue melt so Perspex would make a great cover.the reason I used marine ply is my water tanks are in that cupboard

Where’s the galvanised square steel?
