In my experience they're a massive PITA. You'll constantly be dropping things into it, it'll fill with water and be dank and unpleasant, and you'll never be able to quite reach the bits you want to fiddle with from the pit without growing some extra elbow. 2 post lift or GTFO.

A 2 post lift isn't exactly a viable option for a garage attached to the side of a house though.

This.
I haz pit. It doesn't get wet but it ain't half chilly and uncomfy and it doesn't come close to replicating the usefulness of a ramp. But like @b&d my garage won't take a lift as the ceiling is about 2.5m.
I mainly use the pit for storing rubbish that I've forgotten I own.

One day I'll have a garage with a pit.
