Default Car storage required

Hello all

I am looking for some safe and secure storage for a car. It is currently without a rear axle and so a non driver.
I intend to work on it to get it back on the road but it won't be for at least 12 months.
Anyone know of a corner of a workshop or a own a spare garage, or perhaps even a corner of a secure yard that I can pay a bit of rent on and leave a car for a little while. It is currently on a friends driveway and his wife will kill me if I do not move it soon!

A location in the SW is preferred. Car will arrive on a flatbed so manoeuvring space would be needed.
All help welcomed!
Many thanks

I have a garage that currently only has a lawnmower in it. Depends on how big the car is though as it's only a single, feel free to pop around if you want to check. Might need to clear it with Herself too.
