Triumph Street Triple (bike) which is the first choice.

Toyota MR-2 roadster when I need to carry a passenger/some luggage/heat/a roof.

Land Rover Discovery when I need to carry more than one passenger/lots of stuff etc.

Bought my EP3 when I was 21 as I figured it would do everything my previous civic would do but with a bit more comfort than plodding to Edinburgh/Dundee every weekend in a stripped out hatch with close gears and a loud exhaust.

3 years later both are still here and when the older civic is on the road/track through the Summers, as much as I like my CTR it gets completely forgotten about other than getting a weekly wash to get rid of the dust of dis-use.

The household of a friend of mine have: A current shape Mercedes E63 AMG, a previous shape Mercedes E55 AMG, current shape Mercedes E350GDI Sport and untill recently had a Mercedes CLK63 Convertible and a Ferrari F355GTS. There was also a V10 RS6 Avant for a while.

But 90% of all the mileage they do is in an old beaten Mercedes V230 People carrier. Infact for two years in a row i think the MOT station put more miles on the Ferrari than my friend did!!

There is also a 35ft speed boat/motor cruiser thingy, on a bloody great big trailer thats never been in the water in the 4 or 5 years since it was purchased.
