I bought a few cars over the last ten years or so, but never have I had so many ins and out in such a short period of time...
Tues 3rd Nov, Prairie goes Thurs 5th Nov, Saab 9-5 goes Sun 8th Nov, Hyundai Scoupe comes in Mon 9th Nov, Rover 45 V6 goes Tues 10th Nov, Saab 900 goes Tues 10th Nov, Saab 9000 in Wed 11th Nov, Rover Tomcat in Fri 13th Nov, Volvo V70 in Sun 15th Nov, Mk1 Punto bought (still awaiting collection in Birmingham)
So on the 2nd, I had: '84 Stanza '89 Prairie '97 Saab 9-5 '92 Saab 900 '00 Rover 45 V6 '90 Rover 820
But by the 15th, I had: '84 Stanza '90 Rover 820 '89 Saab 9000 '98 Rover Tomcat '94 Hyundai Scoupe '00 Volvo V70 '98 Punto
Four out, five in. I'm just not very good at trimming down the fleet.

The trimming really isn't going to plan The trimming never goes well, back in 2015 when I was up to 13 cars I planned a big culling of them for 2016. Long story short, I've managed to cull them to just 20 cars! I've really got to get my pooh together and sell some next year, I'm taking up half the street and my neighbours are starting to get a bit funny about it.

Blimey! That escalated quickly! Those Stanzas are like bunny rabbits Likewise with the trimming, i'm up to 11 i think and the neighbours are getting a bit miffed so need to reduce by about 4 and then can get a classic in......
