max 6 that is so unfair......
In no particular order
Mini Cooper, something old, 64 maybe
Dolomite sprint - marts old one, but don't tell him!
Bowler wildcat (with a towbar for picking up dolly's!)
Lotus Elise or maybe an Exige
And for everyday, another honda, one that services itself - like christine did, so it doesn't cost me what my old one did!
and a spare space for whatever takes my fancy on the day - which today is a fiat 500 arbarth but could be anything!
oh and and also in the garage - lots of spares for the car that need it!

1970 MG 1300 - sorry but it was my very first car
Pontiac Trans-Am

And to pick up all the parts I would need to keep that lot on the road a nice Honda Accord estate

I've often fantasised about a dream garage. Problem is it changes daily. However, at the moment this would be it :
- Triumph Dolomite Sprint (of course)
- Bentley Speed Six Le mans
- Porsche 924 Carrera GT
- Ferrari 250 GT Lusso
- Fiat 500 Abarth
- Duesenberg SJ Phaeton
- Aston Martin DB9
- Mercedes 450 SEL 6.9
- Lamborghini Espada S3
- Allard J2X
At least I've got the first one !
