At one point my wife and I only had 2 cars. My Elise and her VX220. Tesco’s was a 2 car trip, and when I replaced our bathroom either served as the dump run car. the VX220 had the short straw when the bath had to go, luckily a jigsaw makes light work of a fibreglass bath, once I’d chopped the roof off it, the bath went in no problem ;)

If there were five car garages near to where I previously lived, they would still be stuffed with household rubbish and the cars would be left outside to rot.

MC-Strad (best road Maser yet)
Range Rover Autobiography (best luxury 4x4, plus good for the school run, tip, shooting, etc)
Ferrari 400 (because one needs a stylish Colombo V12 engined Ferrari that still fits the kids)
Classic Merc SL (because eventually the sun will come out again)
Any modern-ish Porsche (as a good daily hack-about)

Oh no. Hang on. Is this thread supposed be about the favourite 5 cars already within our garages, or 5 cars we’d like if we didn’t already have our favourites? :p

I just missed out on an F11 alpine D5 touring. One of 7 uk cars. Stupid Sytner sold it while i was in negotiation. I bought a Macan S instead as I’m not waiting for another to come up for sale. £30k so same price as a new model 530 touring but so much nicer.

Well the brief is "If you had a 5 car garage (money no object and road going cars only) what cars would you have in them???"

Jeez, distilling everything I'd like down to just 5 was seriously hard work, but ignoring practicality and with a little bit of licence - please Santa may I have:

1 Jaguar XJ13. OK so it was designed to race but never did, and you can now buy decent 'evocations'
60942

2 McLaren F1 LM
60943

3 Ferrari 250 P4 by Drogo
60944

4 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost Roi des Belges. There's a rumour that this one has just been sold, though I find that hard to believe.
60945

5 Bugatti Type 41 Royale
60946


I'll be good Santa, honest I will...…..

1: Porsche Carrera GT
2: Aston Martin DB11/DBS/Vantage (there needs to be an Aston)
3: Rolls Royce Phantom
4: Lamborghini Diablo SVJ
5: Mercedes SLR Mclaren

Could be convinced to swap in a Maserati MC, but ill only be driving the Carrera GT anyway.

I would happily swap the Phantom for a 1930's gangster car. But i have no clue which one hehe.

Guess the carport is where the muscle cars will be
