To qualify both cars must be personally owned by you, at the same time.

I'll kick off; in 2020 I owned both a brand new Aston Martin Vantage and (deep breath) a Ssangyong Rodius. (My kids called it the Odious. They were right)

What say you interweb?

My parents had a Daewoo Matiz each for a year or so. One would be more than enough for any family to suffer.

In the early 1990s, I had a Lotus Excel and a Morris Minor. smile

I've kept that trend going on and off, and I now have a Triumph Toledo and a TVR Griffith 500. I have another daily though too this winter as a slight cheat, a 2016 Fiat Panda. getmecoat

I once owned a basic 4 door Citroen AX 1.1 and a BMW E30 3 series with a Rover v8 engine at the same time.

Is that weird enough?

Few years ago, we were a one car family with an S-Max family bus. Eventually this needed replacing, so I was about to chop it in for a nearly new one, when we decided that I should also get a second car. So with the deals on at the time, it made sense to buy the new S-Max outright, then use the old S-Max as a trade against the second car. However we bought the newer S-Max, I took over the old one and.....never sold it for a smaller car so for the last 3 years we've had 2 x 7 seat S-Maxs.....The old one is practically worthless but is fantastic - drives brilliantly and can be left anywhere!

I've ran a 2008 Perodua Kenari GX for a while now, which has gone alongside both a 2018 Ford Mustang and currently a 2019 Morgan 3 Wheeler.
It looks like this - the same colour, too. hehe





I do now have another daily that pairs better with the Morgan, an old XJ6, however, I love using the Kenari. Tiny, spacious, effortless to drive, cheap to run, easy to park, you don't worry about it... It's stress-free motoring.

My current duo are substantially different - a Tesla and a V8 Morgan.

I had a Nissan Figaro and a Murcielago at the same time too.

For a while I had a Toyota MR2 Mk2 and an MG Midget. The idea was one for a reliable and comfortable daily, the other a fun weekend car. I think it’s fair to say the combo didn’t cover the widest range of practical needs though, eg taking more than one passenger or carrying anything bigger than a golf bag.

Mine must be a Ferrari 348 and a Lada Niva, both owned at the same time, and interestingly, the two cars I have owned the longest.

I currently have a Boxster 986s and a Citroen C3 Picasso if that counts. The Citroen seems to break more but it's good for shopping and for doing tip runs.

Little and large!

Still got the Galaxy- kept way longer than intended. Its surprisingly good to drive for a big old bus, smooth, very economical and can carry loads and loads.
