I'm thinking about changing my car, as we all do often I'm sure.

So far, I've had:

4-cylinder (many)
5-cylinder straight (Volvo S60 D5)
6-cylinder V - Alfa 147 GTA
6-cylinder straight - BMW 335i (current)

I want to have a V8, V10, and V12 before it's impossible to get one.

For my V8, hopefully an E90 M3.

For my V10, I'm thinking an S6.

V12 - unless I win the lotto and can suddenly afford something exotic, it might have to be an old 760 at some stage!

Has anyone's car ownership over the years given them a 'full house'?

Singles: 2 quad bikes
Twins: not yet, might get a motorbike like that in the future though
Triple: ditto
Four: Land Rover 2.25
Five: Land Rover TD5
Six: have the use of a V6 Audi
Eight: my next car is going to have a V8, even if it kills me
Ten: one day I'll have a Viper
Twelve: wouldnt mind a bit of barge-ste in the future to scratch that itch
