A wide, long garage or similar room of the same size is best suited for these purposes. The work area should be well lit; fluorescent lamps and a portable lamp or floor lamp are good for this. You need to have several sockets. If you have a work area with an inspection pit, you can easily and conveniently carry out work on the bottom of the car.
Note: Before further installation of an inspection pit, consult with the relevant administrative authority for building supervision.
If your workroom is high enough, you can attach a reliable hook to the ceiling so that you can hang a pulley block if necessary. A synthetic floor is easy to clean. Reliable shelves, a workbench or a machine will largely complete a perfectly organized place for car care. But if you cannot create such working opportunities, you should not give up on caring for the Vectra yourself. Many types of repairs and almost all maintenance work can be done just as well in dry, warm weather outdoors on a site with solid ground. Before starting work, take care of a storage area. Be careful with gasoline and oil on the asphalt. Also keep in mind that warm asphalt softens. Jacks or tripods can tip over!
Tip: Often after work, traces of oil remain on the ground, which need to be bound before they are absorbed. In this case, you can, firstly, use a strong household cleaner or dishwashing detergent. The situation is improved by absorbent materials, such as sawdust, sand, cement. In related goods stores and construction markets, there are products for removing oil stains.
