Great selection of sausages Andy...Good luck to you Sir.
Proud man, get them out there for us all to enjoy that's what I say.
You like me I'm sure can drive a car for a week and get a little bored at which point it goes away and another comes out to play and so on until you fancy another flirt with the first car.
That's how it is with me anyhow.
Must speak soon old bean. A man who knows!  PS see you Thursday at Salon Prive? Of course, you're also at the Dinner aren't you....Avec Woman? Yes true....I am guilty as charged for having far too many cars, too many to count right now but it's becoming a real pain to keep up with servicing, MOT's, RFL etc etc. Furthermore I was offered a 79 450SL with just 5000 miles which I'm almost compelled to buy.

I would have a new Plus 8 if they weren't so pricey, possibly.
But we don't need an estate because 'the kid' is 30.
And to be honest I could probably manage with three cars. Two fun cars and a simple car for MrsW.
Make that two Morgans and a MrsW car. (Present restricted access taken into account).
There was a Dolomite Sprint at a local classic event on Sunday, and although I've had two 1850's, they were so rotten at three years old that I couldn't stomach another.
But there was a pristine '68 Capri 2000GT XLR. Metallic green, and better than new with 13,000 miles. This was the V4, and with auto transmission.
I know that V4's are hard to balance, but what a compact unit. I wonder why nobody produces a modern V4 - it takes up no space.

When my kid is 30, I'll be 70. I'll probably be half blind and in a wheelchair by then, lol.

Good selection of personal transport devices!
I have a Roadster, replacing a bike as I'm closer to 70 than 50, a BMW 320 M Sport X Drive Touring as a sensible car for work and winter and a Mercedes E 350 CDI Sport Coupe for grand touring.
The BMW replaced a Range Rover Evoque, we need a 4X4 as our road is an un-adopted track with a steep gradient where it joins the main road. Snow makes it impossible for the Merc and in those conditions the Roadster lives in the garage....
Into the future? The planned "small" Tesla is rather appealing! And I'd really like a M3W.....

Sensational, the Vette rounds it out nicely - a 454 AC Cobra would also work in its place

Current family "fleet" : Alfa Romeo Crosswagon as family utility vehicle, Subaru Justy as the shopping trolly, Morgan Plus 4 for fun , Guzzi Nuovo Falcone as classic bike, 24 ft sailing boat for days out on the lake, plus about 15 classic and vintage Guzzis (that I don't seem to have any time for) tucked away in a shed. The Alfa is due to be replaced but I really don't know what with, probably a Subaru Forester. I would love one of the new Maserati cars but really need a wagon of some sort, prefer full time 4x4, and have severe doubts about buying another "Fiat" product. Now if Morgan made a Plus 8 full time 4x4 station wagon .....................
