How many cars since 2008
Last night my mates wife was having a go at him for changing his car so often. We then decided to count how many and decided that the last 4 years would be a good time span as on average that's how long "normals" keep cars.
Me = 8 (counting all cars in our household as I pay for them) Friend = 18 I thought this might be a good question for here. I bet palmnuts wins* *no prizes will be given to the highest or lowest figure |

I've had 3 different motors over the last 4 years..
- 1.0 Polo - 1.6 Clio - E92 335d I won't be changing for another 2 or 3 years as I'm more than happy with my diesel. |

Oh, must we play this game again . There's another thread similar to this from a 1 or 2 ago...
When are you counting from - November 2008 or January 2008 - could have a serious effect on figures

E46 330i Coupe Mazda RX8 350Z Roadster E90 330d E92 335i (if going back to January 2008) Qashqai+2 X3 3.0d 206cc (if going back to January 2008) plus the 330d passed from me to my wife so not sure whether to count that twice So, 7, or 9 if gong back to January. Or 8, or 10, if we're counting the 330d twice or not

Forgot the 335d which I still had at the beginning of 2008, so make that 15.

I remember that thread Roger. It was just a general car history thread Started by Peter I think. This is more a how many in a given time span thread so that I can show it to my wife to prove I'm not as bad as you lot.
I think we should count from start of the year 2008. |

1.1 Peugeot 206
2.0D BMW E90 320d 3.5 Nissan 350z 3.0 BMW E92 335d Since 2008. And well... That's my entire car history! I bought the peugeot in 2006. So... I tend to mod the car when I'm bored, rather than change the car. Less stressful! Less a$$holes to deal with too .. .

Ahaha...
I still feel that I've done OK. Each car better than the last. Hard trend to continue with though now without spending serious money.. Jaaaaaaaag tempting for the next one, but not the right side of 30. I couldn't live it down .

Because I'm old. If I start to think about modding. I realise I'm probably not that happy with it and it's time to move on. I also hate having to revert a car back to standard before trading it in.
