The Volvo is sold. From !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! in the garage and driveway in January, I’m down to just my own 3, and will likely be down to 2 by the end of the summer. My driveway is starting to feel positively roomy.

You're getting rid of the C63 then? Or are you gonna sell the Hammer wagon?

The W124 is probably next on the block.

It’ll be one of those, yeah. Would rather not sell either, of course, but needs must. In the longer term I think “fast car” and “old car” might be combined into one to keep a 2-car garage that scratches all my itches.

Why all the sellin’? :(

Just saving some money or selling to fund one new ‘fun’ thing as a replacement for all the things you sell, or?

Well, it was always half investment half attraction, and there are reasons why cashing in now if possible would be desirable.

I should look for inspiration and downsize the fleet (currently at 5 though the TR6 isn’t mine).  But the XJ6 is at my Jaguar mechanic so that’s gonna cost a fortune so now I have to keep it a while to enjoy it. No good reason to sell it, it’s not worth much.
