Lifetime Cylinder Count

[Megaflow]

Shamelessly robbed from the Dull Men's Club, what is your total cylinder count for everything you have ever owned?

Zip TKM 100cc = 1
Ford Escort 1.4L = 4
Rover 416GTi = 4
Westfield SE = 4
Vauxhall Astra 2.0 Sport = 4
Honda Civic 1.8VTi = 4
Skoda Octavia vRS = 4
Smart Roadster Coupe = 3
Volvo S40 T5 = 5
Moto Guzi V50 = 2
Ford Mondeo 2.5T = 5
Suzuki SV650 = 2
Lotus Elise = 4
Suzuki GSX-R1000 = 4
Suzuki Bandit 1200 = 4
Porsche Cayman = 6
Yamaha YLM346 = 1
Ford Focus ST = 4
Mercedes C200 Sport = 4
BMW M2 = 6
Parker Brand Leaf Blower = 1
Total = 76

[Doofus]

I gave up at 230.

[TriumphStag3.0V8]

I am at 82 with just the stuff I currently own

Having a lot of V8's helps.

[QuartzDad]

4,4,4,4,4,4,6,6,6.

42 obviously.

36 years.

[WoolyFox]

11 years of driving, owned 7 vehicles, total cylinder count 46

Includes three V8s, two V6s, one I6 and one I4.

[E63eeeeee...]

Over 23ish years of car ownership, in purchase order, 4, 4, 4, 8, 8, 6, 6, 4, 6, 4

54 in total so far, currently still own 30 of them

[MikeM6]

Excluding my wife's cars (even though all cars our really both our cars):

4+4+4+4+6+10+10+4+8+8=62cyl

Maybe we could add lifetime hp as well, just for fun, which brings me out at 2916hp (based on manufacturers spec).I have no idea why it's satisfying to count these things up haha.

You have...10 V8s and two lawnmowers?

[croyde]

136. Bikes and cars.

Cars, lots of 4 pots, then an inline 6, Flat 6, V6, on to two V8s, back to a 3cyl, then more 4 pots.

[MrBen.911]

4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,4,6,6,4,6,6,6,6 = 76.

Of course, it depends how long you keep them and how long you've been driving.

Perhaps average cylinders is a better measure?

Mine is 4.75.

Need to buy a V8 soon!

[Huzzah]

If we're including model aero and steam engines 90-100

[SkodaIan]

Been driving since 1998. My cylinder count is only 18 from 4 cars and 2 lawnmowers.

I keep my cars (and lawnmowers) a long time......

How about a lifetime valve count, I think mine is 64.

[anonymous-user]

Cars only I'm at 160.

[littleredrooster]

246

Spread over 48 cars and 22 bikes in 54 years on the road.

[WonkeyDonkey]

All been 4 cylinders apart from the one dorito.

[FarmerJim]

Ignoring company cars and wife's cars, I'm on 98. 40 years of driving.

Adding in garden machinery gets me to 102.

Edited by FarmerJim on Tuesday 10th December 18:04

[Austin Prefect]

A mere 40, across 14 vehicles.

[marksx]

About 120 I reckon in 22 years. Cars and bikes.

Ooooh, I hadn't counted the ride on lawnmower - add another 2 cylinders.. :-) so 84.... and just for fun that makes 41.4 litres

I have 5 V8's and a bunch of less fun cars

I am not counting the various generators, strimmers and chainsaws I own as I cannot drive them.
