Re: How many vehicles can you run and enjoy at once?
Ring pass will likely be €1.2-1.4k. 6 weeks of accommodation a bit, registering and insuring a bike in Germany will be similar/less than the UK. More lapping = priceless!
Cash flow is not the issue if vehicles aren't depreciating/deteriorating/costing me too much. As soon as they cost and produce no smiles they have to go. |

Re: How many vehicles can you run and enjoy at once?
I have a wife, mortgage, 4 x kids (1 at Uni, 1 at college about to go to Uni), a pension, healthcare, dental, life, critical illness, accident and travel insurance.
That leaves only enough to have a (leased) Audi, a 3yr old SV and 3 x Honda Visions in various states of disrepair. Swap you! |

Look through my collection of bangers, not really a rich man's list!

Re: How many vehicles can you run and enjoy at once?
I'm not sure if this is boasting, or an admission of how bad I am at selling anything.... but we currently have 17 V5s registered to our address.... In my defense I would like to point out that one of the cars is my daughters, three of the bikes my sons, and not all the remainder are taxed/insured at the same time!

Re: How many vehicles can you run and enjoy at once?
Im just an old fashioned girl with one car (my mum bought) and one bike (my boyfriend bought)! Id love to lose the car cos I resent every £ I spend on it, but the nearest town is 10 miles and public transports a bit crap, and I cant fit three kids on ma bike
Its a shame cos I have a garage with only one bike in it so loads of spare room, and a driveway that would house four cars!!! |

Re: How many vehicles can you run and enjoy at once?
I got rid of my mx5 a year ago and it's sadly missed. Roof down for the sunshine and RWD for the snow/rain. Cant beat it.
That's why i'm buying a KTM next |
