What other cars do we own?
Discussion
I wish I had what Shoebag and VHR have in their garage, but for the record:
Mrs C5ragtop rattles around in a Citroen Saxo she's had from new.
One daughter has a Saxo VTR, the other has a Corsa and I use a Volvo V40 turbo. Of course, I'm responsible for buying, taxing, insuring and maintaining them all - my insurance bill last year was £2,000+

My other car is an old 1991 Sierra i rescued six years ago after it was more or less abandoned,i've replaced nearly every working componant and painted the underneath,it was also used it as a mini cab for 3 years before i retired it around 3 years ago.
I love the car as i can do all the work myself even sourcing the dogleg wheels,plans for the next few years are a even more thorough restoration with a quiet V6 or V8 conversion
The car has covered around 450,000 miles,

Interesting 'mix' of 'other' vehicles here - really proves there isn't a stereotypical Corvette owner!
Cliff - love the Sierra, looks really tidy, I know it'll not be the answer you want, but totally reminds me of the 'Cosworth look' (An easier conversion? - although still wrong number of cylinders!)

But, our cluttered drive holds the wife and (2 of 4) kids' cars too - one Pug 206GTI, one Pug 106, one Ford KA.
My eldest kid is becoming more of a petrolhead than me - I bought her a Ford Fiasco to learn in, and now her and her other half's fleet has an "almost finished" hotrod in their garage, the Fiasco, an MG Midget and an MGBGT.

And I though I was doing well with a Range Rover, Ford Focus and the other halfs Golf!Ash
My other "toy" car is a Ferrari F430 Spider: http://www.auto-journals.com/content/f430s_1_1.htm...
My wife's car is the practical, dog-carrying Audi Allroad: http://www.auto-journals.com/content/a6allroad1.ht...
And I have recently added another Ferrari to the stable so our two year old can join in the fun.
But the Z06 is still the most fun!
