Title: How many cars has everyone got?
Post by: tinman on 25 November 2003, 14:00
I just thought i would ask this question as most people seem to have more than one.

Include your daytime car in this. (Even if its not VW)

Motorbikes and half shares in cars count as a HALF.

I've got 2 right now, but i'm selling my old one.

Now,  R Reg mk3 16v, N reg polo 'open air'

Before, just the polo

before that,  the polo and a '65 'project' beetle


i ditched the project because it was gonna cost me 7/8 grand to get how i wanted so i spent the money on a car with mod cons :)

I have my GTI. The ex's Nissan, a Renault 19 that was given to me and a an american spec Chevy Cavalier that was again given to me. I need to start thinning the herd to make room for a G60 or maybe a Corrado. As for motorcycles I have had my share.

1981 Suzuki GS550
1985 Honda CB 650 SC
1986 Honda VF1000R
1994 Kawasaki ZX-9R
1993 Ducati 900SS
2000 Yamaha YZFR-1000 (R1)

I'm having a bit of a break from bikes at the moment. The VF100R, ZX-9R, and the R1 were all written off in wrecks. Not anxious to repeat it so I'll just sit back for a few years and enjoy my cars. Bikes have sure gotten powerful over the years. I remember think my VF100R was the baddest bike in the world when I had it. When I bought the ZX9 I was impressed with the power and agility of it. Then after riding the Ducati for a long time I decided I wanted another 4cyl and bought the R1. What a machine.  First bike I ever owned that would power wheelie in third hard on it. Hate to see what they will be like in 10 years. :)

WELL MY DADS GOT 2 MILLION, BILLION! ...lol :D
