We did this previously, there's a couple of threads hanging about with some scary figures in it from one or two members that have been in the trade a while.
I'm in the several hundred at the minute, driving 9 years this April. Currently own about 20, and the business owns/holds circa 75 at any one time.

I've had two. And I bought one to replace the other! Problem is, here we have no road tax but registration tax which we pay everytime a car changes hands... no piling up wonderful cars legally without spending a fortune on tax.
Some of the cars listed here are properly left-field or cool, it makes me jealous!

yeah I've had about 60 now, mostly boring cars I flicked on for a profit. Likewise. SWMBO would disagree on the profit bit though! Haven't done any of that since I struggled to shift a Vectra when we first moved down here back in '11. Realised Taunton is a different story to Redditch/Bromsgrove where nowhere is very far away!

Biggin it up to the RR Massive! Cheers for making me feel better about my car problem - or apparent lack thereof. I should show this thread to 'Er Indoors to prove how restrained I've been. Had a full license for 20 years (yeah that is a scary thought), only owned 9 cars in that time. Gold star for me. Highlights include the Multipla (AKA The Hypnotoad - now owned by our very own Mr Matthew "Coque-Chopper" Stealthstylz), a 94 Buick Regal, mk2 Polo Coupe, 88 Chrysler LeBaron, Alfa 155 and a mk1 Leon Cupra R Particularly proud of my ability to hang on to the Polo for FOUR YEARS. All of this is made far easier to bear by the fact that I'm also in the trade and take something different home every day though, so kinda cheating.

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary.

Mine is only personal cars in my name, i don't keep track of sale cars (mainly cos they are boring hense i sell them), though TBH i specialise in breaking cars so that list is just silly long but not very detailed (92 cortinas, 43 sierras, 23 granadas, 106 escorts ect ect). Time helps LOL, i've owned cars since i was 14 (31 years) It must be harder now days to own lots of cars, back in the 80's i could park 4 or 5 untaxed cars around my estate and no one moaned or lifted them, nowdays you cant even rent a council garage here without showing the MOT and insurance for the car going in it I know some banger racers who have ni on 200 cars in storage and they don't even race anymore
