Default 2nd Car

How many of you guys run a second car as well as the Subaru? If you do, how different is your 2nd car.......I will start the ball rolling as our 2 cars are worlds apart:
Black STi (MY02) and a black Volvo V40

am thinking about getting a second car to try to cut the insurance and petrol costs down on the scooby. plus it'll stop the missus nagging that "the scooby is too loud, even with the exhaust bung in" and that she "wants a nice car for when we go anywhere".
