=== Vehicle storage ===
The first is a place for storing vehicles, almost exclusively attached to a [[safehouse]]. In [[GTA San Andreas]], a maximum of four vehicles will be saved in any of the garages though fewer or more may actually fit inside, depending on the size of the garage as well as the vehicle. A variation on this is the large hangar at the [[Verdant Meadows]] airstrip, in which larger vehicles including planes can be stored. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], garages were replaced with parking spaces outlined in yellow outside any [[Safehouses in GTA IV|safehouse]] marked with 'Residents Parking Only'. Though more may fit inside the outline, these spaces will save up to two vehicles.

The second type is a public vehicle repair business. [[Pay 'n' Spray]] garages exist in all [[GTA III Era]] cities and in GTA IV, and will repair any non-public vehicle, as well as repainting it and replacing the engine to put the [[police]] off its trail, and remove a [[Wanted Level|wanted level]].

Garages like [[8-Ball Autos]] in all GTA III Era games and [[Welding & Weddings]] in GTA San Andreas allow you to attach a bomb to car, to blow up it later if necessary. Sometimes their services will be required for specific missions, in other time they can be useful just for fun.

* In GTA IV, after the [[Broker Safehouse]] becomes unavailable after the mission [[Roman's Sorrow]], but the player can still save vehicles in the parking space. It is unknown if this was intended by the designers or not. This also applies for GTA IV's [[The Lost and Damned | downloadable content]], in which [[The Lost MC Clubhouse]] [[Get Lost | is burned down in the last mission]] but the parking space is still available for saving vehicles.

* In GTA San Andreas, the [[Ganton]] Garage, [[Doherty Garage]], and the [[Verdant Meadows]] Hangar, can be used by the player to store cars in before the player even owns them. They are quite useful when storing special vehicles in them.
