27 off the top of my head 

[Mr Gav]

12 in 29 years of driving, I think I tend to keep them more than most.

[Nick W]

over thirty, which averages one a year   And a third of them were Capris.

25 since 1969

8 since 1987 when I passed my test. 4 of which are Omegas - one I never actually drove on the road (was bought to repair but got used for spares). And then there is triggers new broom 

[flyer 0712]

was only trying to work this out earlier in the year with my son in law as he said in the 16 years I have know him he remembers me having 27 cars, then trying very hard with pen and paper over the next few days worked out since 1963 those that I added up came out as 79 and must be some I had not remembered, then it makes you think all of that dosh we spend on cars.....wish I had not worked the list out now

15, I think.. 18 if you included company cars and my first car (which was never actually in my name)

More than I thought it would be, but as I was adding them up I kept realising I'd forgotten one or two - like the utterly forgettable Peugeot estate that preceded the 2.5TD Omega estate, or the XJ40 that became a pile of donor parts

Was this the 6 litre V12?

5. Tend to buy at about a year old and keep until major components are failing, it has got too unreliable, or tin worm is winning.

I expect the Omega's demise will be due to unreliability.

Yep, me too, although one of those is the Westfield, which I'll be keeping.

The great thing about a simple kit car like the Westfield is that it's easy to replace the bits that drop off (or get knocked off)

Yes, and when you get bored of it, it can be re-born as something more interesting.

Aye, me too. The "I'll buy a cheap large cruiser for my France 2004 holiday" car lasted another 13yrs more than I intended it to.
