[vtecyo]

I'd buy a new wife.

[Monty Python]

I don't understand the question.....

[Dan_1981]

I'd question why i'd bought an Evoque, let alone a 3 door one AND a 5 door one.

Sorry, not an allowable option, you must chose which cars need to go, getting rid of the wife may mean even more cars may "have to go".....

[MikeOxlong]

New wife.

I'd buy an assassin then.

I only count 101 cars there in total.

So just sell the G60 Polo.

[Calletrece]

I'd get all of the cars in the same colour, that way if the wife ever questions how many there, you can just say ''No no no, that's the black one we ALWAYS use...''.

[cocopop]

I'd sell a lot of those cars, and buy ones I liked. Then I'd expand the garage.

[sc0tt]

Too much brainpower required

Are you sure you're not Jay Leno?

[xjsdriver]

Have I started a Friday afternoon reason to slack off work and put some idle thought as to what a perfect 100 car garage would be?

That's more like it....I'm just off to get my collection of Observer's Automobiles and I'll be back in a bit.

[johnfm]

Way too many cars.

[Actus Reus]

If that were my idea of a perfect garage, I'd shoot myself - two Hummers FFS? I'm not Justin fking Bieber Timberlake or whatever his name is.

[J4CKO]

You would do what all rich people do, buy loads of cars, generally ignore them and drive a brand new Range Rover.

I think that's what Jay Leno gets from his other half on a daily basis....."Way too many cars honey"

[rohrl]

From your list I would drop the following -

Hummer 1 and 2, Cayenne Turbo, Evoque 3 and 5 Dr., X5

93 Turbo Viggen, 480 Turbo, G60 Polo, BRG Mini

RS6 Avant, Alpina Touring E39, V70 R AWD, Mustang Estate

348, 328, 612, Diablo

XJS, Conti. , Conti GT,

p.s. You mean Renault Alpine, not Alpina.

[motorhole]

I wouldn't want 100 cars.

I struggle to foresee any combination of wealth, time, and desire resulting in me ever owning more than 6 or 7 cars tops.

I wouldn't drive any more than that regularly enough to make it worth owning - and why own a nice care only for it to sit in a garage gathering dust, when it could be putting a smile on some other petrolhead's face?
