Archie, you rock!
Onno, why would you ever own 50 cars? I much prefer having 2 or 3 cars at the maximum and enjoying them more often. Then if you get bored, change them for another 3.
Archie, behave yourself!
Stile, if I was Ralph Lauren or Nick Mason, my garage would be the same. Why would I own 50 cars? Because I could! Well, 50 is maybe a bit much but I would certainly own more than 10. I'm just a humble engineer and I'm planning to own 5 by 2009 or 2010 already.
I wouldn't do what you suggest because I like the idea of forming a bond with a car over time. If you do the buy/sell/swapping thing, you will always regret selling this or that car.
And why would you need so many, you may ask? Because they are all so different! And I would like to do trials and events with them. Different even, you need a different car.
So I would love to own a 1929 Bugatti T35B, a Escort MkI rally car, a Maserati 250F, a 1961 Ferrari SWB California Spyder (with a different number plate than Archie suggests....), a 1930 Bentley Blower, a 1984 Ferrari 288 GTO, a 2008 430 Scuderia, a 1970 Ferrari 512M, a 1929 Alfa Romeo 8C-2300, a 2000 Ferrari 550 Maranello (hey, got that one already!), a 1965 Lotus Elan and so on and so forth.
Don't get me wrong - I'm very happy with my BMW for everyday use and my 550 Maranello as my special car. But now I'm looking at buying a TVR Griffith, because I would like a nice quick brutish roadster. But I still don't have anything classic that you can do a nice rallye in. So a Lotus Elan is on the cards. And I would still like an old-style Ferrari for the styling, the engine, and the driving experience, so a Boxer is still in the pipeline as well. See, that already makes 5! I don't
need them and I'm very happy without them. But if you have the storage space and the money, why not?
Onno
