oh and im after a saff cossi as well lol

 

I've currently got 9, 8 on the road and the 103E in the garage awaiting a resto.

 

i used to have 4 missus never said owt

 

Well I hope it is a jacked up 4x4 sierra with that driveway.

 

We've got 5 between us and a trailer

Range rover - My every day car plus tow car
Frontera - Off roader toy
Sierra cossie estate - Summer toy when i've got cash to run it
Focus TDCI - Her every day car
Civic v-tec - Her old car (but i wont let her sell it cause its a great little car)
Trailer

 

ive got a rover 75 that i use as a runaround, my cabriolet as a project and i'll be getting a van in the coming weeks
sometimes you just need a few vehicles

 

Tell her she's onto a winner with you, i have 5 on the road and 3 in storage

 

She reminded me about my other car,i bought a old y reg escort ghia for parts for the orion,the fact i paid 80 for it and when i have sold all the bits ill make back about 250 doesnt count.now that i have thought about it i might sell the escort and orion and buy a mk3 rs or xr or a s2 so i have something with a hatchback for taking the dogs out.it started when i got a job on the oil rigs.i went away with the escort and left it in the works yard for 2 weeks,when i got back she complained she had nothing to take the dogs out in which was a fair point,so i bought the orion and now she moans we have too many.so if i buy an escort rs and sell the estate and orion ill be happy and she will have to walk to the beach when im away.then when she moans i can tell her its her problem.

 

I think the most we've ever had in the household at any one time was about 7.
We recently sold one car bringing the total down to 5, but there is another one arriving in the next month (hopefully).

So there will be a 993 Turbo, Leon Cupra R, Impreza WR1, Citroen C4 VTS, Honda Accord & the new Focus RS.

A lot of people think thats too much, but when you compare it to Jay Leno, or the Sultan of Brunei its nothing.

 

We've got 3, My Jimny, Her ST170 and my Pug but she doesn't mind me having them as it stops me fooking about with the focus she only moans when i've been off road and nick the focus until i've cleaned mine.
Takes A LOT of self control to not buy more.

 

You need spare cars. At the moment I have

Escort RS Turbo (locked away)
Audi A4 1.8 Turbo daily hack (swore blind I wouldn't mod it but whoops )
Golf GTi
Fiat Sceicento Sporting

 

you must get paid 2 much working for cementing can you hand my cv in!!! im underpaid and treated like a slave!! i wish i had 3 motors your defo a delboy
p.s mk4 escorts are poop dont buy one

 

i think they are all the same i have 3 a 52 plate golf a td fiesta van and a s2 rs turbo she got a bit funny when i started to talk about escort cosworths

 

Wats wrong with that they buy to many shoes and hand bags, tell her to get rid of some of them, on second thoughts dont she will only have room to buy more lol

 

We got 3 , my missus has a mgzr, i have the work car (astra estate) that i get free fuel for and my turbo cabbie as my toy.

 

hehe. i have 7 cars. and my girl gets angryer and angryer every time i bring a new ford home. hehe

90 xr4i
89 coupe sierra
87 coupe sierra
93 2,0clx
86 express van escort
88 econoline
87 3 door cossie.

 

Wonder how much grief Martin Hadland's missus give him about his fleet?

 

Nah, I'm just gonna build speed up and hopefully I should just clear the gaps/ruts/mountains Starting on the driveway next week...gotta pull down the old garage thats blocking the way first.

 

My mate has a saff cossie a S1 2 rs2000 mk2 escorts.A mk3 XR3i which is in bits a RS2000 mk6 escort a mk2 escort shell on ots side in a garage a ford Ka and a corsa.

 

stick to your guns mate i had 3 cars for a while but then moved house and couldnt accomidate all 3 along with othere vehicles within household.but im looking to sell one and buy 2 hehe

 

Don't worry about it mate, women aren't happy unless they're moaning so you're doing her a favour. I think they must have special classes for it at school.

I don't think 3 cars is too much, I've only got two of my own at the moment but have regularly had 3 or more at once in the past, plus bikes as well.

 

i have 4 cars and a bike

 

I can't see any problem in this if you can afford them then why not my old man has 26(yes thats right 26) including a mga,mgb,truimph,armstrong sidley x2,mercs,jags,trans am,pontiac,ford cougar(1973 581bhp)mustang convertable and fastback,austin healey,ac cobra,ferrari,jensen,alfa gtv but to name a few so why not

 

A transam and also a Pontiac?

I've got a Sierra and a Ford

 

I have 3
My Dolomite
my Mitsi
and the Rover derv for work

 

I have 4 lol

 

I'm on the verge of trimming my fleet down further.

Taxing them all to sit about pisses me right off.

Currently own

FRST
ERST
Zetec'd Bonus
'Charged Mk1 Feista
Puma.

Recently bent my Mk3 Mondeo Ghia x.

I want it down to 3 by next winter. Finding safe parking and paying for them to sit about really bugs me, but i KNOW i will really miss some of them.

 

I've got 3 - and still couldn't get to work the other day

Escos is on laid up ins/no tax
Discovery was in a million bits as I was trying to fix everything we broke/wore out
Rad went on the Lexus LOL

She does moan a bit about the state of the disco, I recon it's fine...

 

No it's not!!!!
I know the feeling, i get told "you don't need another car" I know i don't NEED it, i want it, there is a difference, otherwise i'd only have one!!!!
Seriously though, i don't see the problem as long as they all run and your not one of those folk who has 3 cars in their driveway on bricks.
She has a Ka, i've got my new mazda as a run about, and a moondust saph also, I really want an S1 of some description (turbo/1600i) just have to "pick" the right moment. I did have 5 at one point though. Lol

 

currently have 3 cossies, astra, mazda jeep, and planning on buying a 'work' pickup in june. So that will be 6..

plus another cossie makes 7

 

But then again its ok if everything you own is paid off.

If you have a mortgage and debts etc then i can see her point but if your all piad off and debt free then why not.

 

I used to have 2 cars, but recently have gone down to just the Nissan 200sx, keep getting the urge to buy another car, but just cant warrant paying the insurance on a 2nd car.

 

3 here - her MK3 2.0 Mondeo Ghia X, my Cosworth which I use for commuting and our Westfield which is the weekend toy.

Funny how I still do most of the driving :-?

 

3 cars is the right amount - there is no limit to the number of bikes one can have as they are all for different things. the sports bike, the tourer, the supermoto, the off roader etc, etc

 

sorry I should ahve been more precise he has a TRANS AM AND A PONTIAC LE MANS 2 DIFFERENT CARS

 

im 20 and have a scoob, mk4 escort and some gash van

 

i've bought another this week so now have five and i'm 22!

 

ive got 6, so tell her she is lucky
