Mine clicked over the 30,000 mile mark last week. That will be 4 years old in January.

Too many cars is my problem. Hope to reduce down to half the amount in the next 18 months.  That will meen the mk6 is used ~9 months of the year.

Because I have 7-8 garage spaces :grin:   :evil:

3 cars are 50-60 classics. Going to sell them this coming year.
I have another car I use in the winter. (Inherited this one a year ago or so)
Another I use for trips to tip/dirty work. (My previous winter car)
Then my two GTIs.
Not worth fortunes but still too many imo.

Going to reduce it to 3-4
Daily driver
Winter car
Classic car
Maybe a sports car if I sell my 5 car garage location for housing. Then have money left after building a second double garage at home.

Not as bad as you maybe thinking..
 3 classics Free tax.  insurance for them comes to about £500
Winter car is £140 a year tax and iirc £280 Insurance
Dirty car £120 a year tax and about £250 insurance
GTI mk1 been off the road for a few years stored at home (no costs)
GTI mk6 £195 tax iirc £320 to insure.
No ive not added that all up  :embarrassed:
But if I reduce it to 3 cars it will be cheaper  :grin:
