Quick answer: If the car can leave the bay, buy a Mirafit M3 Half Rack (or current Mirafit half-rack equivalent). If the car must sleep there, buy a folding wall rack and verify wall structure before drilling.
The Big 5: 1 of 5UK buying reality
Measure to joists, not brochure height. UK single garages are narrow — plate storage steals walk lanes. Neighbour noise: bumper plates + flooring stack matter as much as steel.
