I know a guy called Ken, he lives along the Hill Head coastline and he constructed a Slipway and large Boat shed with toilet, kitchen and bar at one end. He's never owned a boat as far as I know, just did it for entertaining and adding value to the property.

Wish I had some pictures.

I think the reason that the "Show us your Shed Thread" never happened was because it was too risky.

Putting all your goodies up on t'internet, showing the world a shopping list...

I've been tempted on and off to get one of these, but I suspect they won't look as cool in real life:

Some of the moving-floor pools are almost as cool as that 'Thunderbirds' garage in the OP.

Nothing that fancy.

The photo was digitally reworked.

Reworked using two fingers to be exact.

Excellent. If you're ever short of two fingers, I'll have a couple for you. I'd show 'em to you now, but JK is VERY strict...

The first house we bought had something similar.....

Wasn't quite so sophisticated though, when it rained really heavy the rain water would run down the hill in front of the house, come over the threshold of the door and flood the living room :-)

Just what I thought. Think there was a Jeep Wrangler and an Disco V8. Not a supercar amongst them!
