I'm currently down from 3 to 2 cars, a mildly track prepped MX-5, and a Honda Jazz that was supposed to be wifes car but become our main transportation (it's brilliant BTW). I'm looking for fun and practical daily driver, but I'd also want to have something really special. I'm thinking about a Lotus Elise as it seems to be affordable, depreciation free and inexpensive to run - the problem is that would be my fourth car... I'm sure there are a lot of You guys who have more than that, so I wanted to ask - how many is enough, how many is too many? I'm not speaking about collecting - how many cars do you actually use?

Forgot to mention I only have 2 garages, so 2 of the cars would have to park outside...

TIA,
Michal

Twink - adding OH car will increase that minimum to 5 then. Sounds sensible. wink

Ecosseven & ShaunTheSheep - You have a point.

Thats what I'm worried about - that while trying do earn enough to fuel/tax/insure 4 cars I'll only have time to drive one... We also plan to have children soon so it won't get any better. Decisions, decisions.
