1) My BGT (IS my year round daily driver)
2) My RWA Midget for good weather ( and the ladies )
3) sorry MG'ers.. but my Spitfire for weak moments of road craziness
and for scaring the hell out of my 'muscle-car motor-head' passengers
4) a pre-war MG (J2, TA, whatever) for my own ego driving moods.

I'm with you, Bill. I paid $45,000 for my house. (Er...the ex's house.) If
I were looking for a new car, I might consider $13K for a new Ford Focus ZX3,
which is doing great in the WRC rallies.
I just bid on a 1990 Range Rover on eBay (Your Personal Trading Community).
I had the first bid, and it said bidding started at $1000! So I bid $1100.
I was outbid in about 5 minutes. (The blue book value is $13,000.) Hey, if
I could get it for $1K, I wouldn't mind flying to Dallas, TX to pick it up.
It's up to $8100 today, and the reserve hasn't been met.
Let's see, a good stable would include a Spridget for nice days and
autocrossing, a BGT for winter and really heavy rain, and maybe a Land Rover
88 for parts hauling. There may be room for a Jag for those "I'm in the mood
for air conditioning and listening to tunes" days.
The challenge: What 4 cars make up your "Perfect" garage? LBC content
required. No more than 4 cars allowed. (C'mon...it's a slow day on the
'net!)
