How often do you use your multiple vehicles?

I have a fairly quick car, a fairly quick bike and a slow, practical (yet extremely comfortable) Land Rover. Really happy with all 3 but I find myself jumping in the Landie far too often. How often do you make use of your different chariots?
Daily driver, most weekdays or when going away with wife/dogs.Motor Bicycle, Spring/Summer/Autumn when it's nice (very definitely a fair weather rider)
The the little Z when I am on my own going somewhere with little requirement for luggage space.
I try to drive all of them equally, but as I don't drive to work sometimes a car can be a month unused. The M3 Vert hadn't seen a road for around 3 months before yesterday!..the RR doesn't get used much either, because the Forester is so capable! RR is pretty much Chaps Weekend Away Car, that is all I ever use it for!..The Corrado is still my 'GoTo' car, never ever tire of the thing
At 3 just now
Mini cooper S gets used daily by The GF and me to run round town. so 7-8k a year
Range rover is old dirty and does 3-4k a year
TVR Cerbera Summer toy only does 4-5k a year
Looking to add a tuscan soon so it will share miles with the cerb so 2k a year going to view one shortly i hope

406 Diesel, daily.
205 gti-6, when the weathers nice! Only financially viable because of classic insurance at £165 for the year
MR2, never as can't afford to insure a third car! Really need to get round to selling it
Couldnt a mr2 go on a classic policy as well?205 gti-6, when the weathers nice! Only financially viable because of classic insurance at £165 for the year

Anything over 15 years is classic i thought?

Sold my Aston for this reason. It was just an utter waste of cash. Replaced it with a Cayenne Turbo as it was practical for the dogs (and the Mini is too small). Now find myself looking for another "proper" sports car as the truck isn't that fun once the novelty wears off. The bikes are mostly for trackdays and larking around on, so not fussed by their cost, especially as they're cheap to insure, tax etc.
Haven't used my MK1 Focus RS since the end of October '10 
Just been stored on SORN the last 2 & 1/2 years Looking very unlikely that it will be put back on the road any time soon tbh
Got far too used to hacking around in my shed of a Saxo VTS, mainly because it's not much of a worry if someone dings it in a car park, etc, etc.
Saying that the 205 GTI is now off SORN as well so hoping to get more use out of that in the coming months / when the weather improves (if it ever does
)
