Thanks for the replies.


I'm already working full time nearby as well as working on my photography.


The winter isn't the problem. I have too many cars and not enough time, space or money to manage them all. Five cars is just too much for me.


My daily shed which is my first ever 75 I've owned has been off the road for 6 months due to clutch failure (again!). I wasn't planning on putting this back on the road. My plan was to break it. My friend came over a few weeks ago and felt sorry for it and offered to put it back on the road for me for very cheap. He has now almost completed the work so it should be back on the road within the next week or two. I will drive this one for the time being to save money on fuel instead of the dreadul, overrated V6 auto which I want shot of.


I then have my Diesel saloon typhoon, one of just nine made. This was an impulse buy and has been off the road since I bought it...I would like to keep this one but then again I'd like to keep them all!


My coupe turbo I've owned since 2006. That needs quite a fair bit of work. Mostly electrical issues and cosmetically, it's not clean....Arches and sills have rotted quite badly.


My 620Ti - Mint. Nothing wrong with that at all but I fear that will go the same way as the coupe. Do I need this car? Absoultely not, but I do like it. It was a hidden gem.


My ZT-T typhoon. Looks the part but hate the V6 auto.


All I want to do is focus on my life and future and not cars. If I had it my own way and had a nice house with lots of space to keep them all, it would be nice. But, paying £45 per month for a few lockups isn't the way and also the lockups are damp which isn't helping. My coupe turbo got worse inside the lockup then out I think....
