must be nice to have a brief test and know everything and better than the people that own certain vehicles because you have a family.

I generally keep a car no more than 6 months.. They are all mine, registered to me.. I'm not a dealer
Sometimes it gets out of control:

What criteria do you have for choosing them?

This is where I'll sound a bit mental..
One is normally picked by the misses, one will be something big and one will be something economical..
In that Picture the Astra was the misses current car but the SLK was the 'new one'... The X5 was the big car and the DCi Megane was the economical ones.
The fiesta was a shitter I bought for £80 from my neighbour to do a scrap yard run in..
BTW this photo is a good few years old now

Apart from the carlton and the 1.8 corsa - pretty much everything you mentioned

You think the 1.8 Corsa was one of the decent cars? Wowza..
I thought you'd be getting your dick wet over an M3 or one of the many WRX/STi Impreza's I've owned.. Maybe even the Porsche? ..Not the bloody 1.8 corsa

Do you usually turn a profit when moving these cars on? I mean, spunking what I'd assume would be at least a 4 figure sum on a megane for 'economy' when you've got what looks like a 1.25l Fiesta sitting there doesn't make sense to me
