I didn't say any of mine were actually worth anything! A close friend has 7 cars whose total value must be less than £5000. Still he likes em and it means he gets to drive some very different cars.
There's also a guy I used to know from my local who had over 10 (and some more in bits)old style Skoda "fastbacks" not sure what model but they were coupes!
Anyone who really loves cars would have a whole bunch of different ones if they had the chance

Got 2, getting a 3rd and considering a 4th.....

If you live in London and have a Scoob (or any decent car), you really could do with a ****box car for the Sainsbury's run, leaving in dodgy areas, ultra short journey's etc....

Danny, nice

Starting the thread closure countdown....

PS - Tree huggers should be superglued to the trees, shortly before they are bulldozed to make way for a nice new bypass

1 Scooby for Fun, long runs, etc.
3 bikes, Suzuki TL1000SV, Husaberg FE400E, Laverda 180 Jota(Ask your dad if under 30)
1 1989 1.8GL Passat for shopping, commuting, towing the Husaberg all the boring short journeys round town. Don't like the idea of coking up the Scoob on my two mile commute and the Passat only cost me £300 and easy has another 100k left in it. Also I can park anywhere instead of the empty end of Asda's car park, scratches and gouges only add character which it desperately needs.

I have 3:

Jeep for wife and kids - need that 4x4 in South London
P1 for my driving into work and reliable cruiser and fun
1980 Corvette for posing into work in the Summer

Chevrolet SSR (roadster/pick-up truck) on order to replace the P1 next year sometime.

I will always keep the Corvette and in time will add a Countach (because it was the unattainable dream car when I was a kid) for a time and a 355. Probably a Caterham for a while at some point and whatever else that is cool and comes along that I want to play with.

I don't think it is at all relevant for the "tree-huggers". I don't drive any more or produce any more noxious fumes or deposits because I have more than 1 car. In fact, maintaining them keeps them off the scrap heap/crusher/land fill so is helping the environment. In any event, I didn't read this as a "lots of cars is killing our children" kind of thread.

Cool

I have 2 now until a few weeks ago I had:

1.7 puma company thrash about wagon
Lancia 16 valve integrale (always something wrong with the damn thing [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img])
and I just sold my 2.8 injection capri to fix the lancia

I still own a part share in a mark 2 3.0s capri with low miles that we have been storing for years

My sister has 2 cars too, she has a peugeot diesel for commuting and a scoob for fun

Er, 4. 5 next week.

ML55AMG, work.
Range Rover HSE, Bird work.
4.2 V8 110, weekends
LHD TD5 110, off road, mostly in france, hence LHD.

V10 Toerag arriving in summer for work for me.ML going as I hate it.
New Range Rover at dealers now and being collected by bird when tracker fitted etc. Keeping HSE for runaround!! And I will use it instead of ML. Doh!

Accord Type R and STi7 both sold as they only came out every other week and were driven far too fast on the public highway because of novelty value.

Plus I have a new Land Rover bodied thing being specced at the moment for UK events only.

Oops, forgot to say. I only need 1 vehicle, but like others here, I couldn't care less about need, WANT is far more important
