Tom -
You need to educate your fiance into the concept of COLLECTING cars as
opposed to merely OWNING them. My ex said "either those cars go or I
go"... and I still have the cars. My Current and Last Wife for ever and
ever and ever clearly understands this and sometimes even eggs me on.
>From the practical side - my wife knows my admonition that "if I could own
but ONE car, THEY would all be MGs(!)".
