Exactly! Cars weren't meant to be put in warehouses and polished. They were meant to be driven. And its a complete waste IMHO to acquire that many cars and never drive them. I'm no fan of Jay Kay, but at least he drives the things.

I always say let the manufacturers worry about keeping some minters/ historically important cars (Cars that won championshps or have an interesting story attached) for their museums. The general public should buy to drive.
