Trev, well i dont find enough time is half the problem a the moment cause of working away from home in london, lol

Mind you im like yourself, i dont sleep a lot, so when im back home i get quite a lot done.
This weekend for example i was working on the integra until 3am on sunday morning, me and my mate sean do it as a social thing at his workship, we get one of his customer cars in, and one of my cars, and just both go at the pair of them all weekend while chatting and stuff, beats sitting around watching telly etc!

Be cool to get a bigger workshop and have a few more people doing the same i reckon :D

And my mini engine im building down near london at a friends place, i pop round every wednesday, turn up with takeaway for him and his mrs as a thanks for letting me use his tools etc, then after the food we go out in the workshop for a few hours, he works on a customers engine and i work on mine, and if i need anything engineering wise doing that i cant do myself i get him to lend me a hand.

Have got rid of 4 recently mate.
The prelude is gone now
The mini trackday car is gone now
The 13.3 seconds nova is gone now
The volvo is gone now


So all ive got left now is:

3 Door Cossie - 330bhp (being rebuilt by a friend who crashed it)
Integra type R trackday car (nearly finished)
Mini convertable (finished)
Mini roadcar (finished but i never use it, its callys old one)
Alfa romeo T-Spark (daily driver)
Mid engined nova (nearly finished)
Vauxhall mini (LOTS of work left)

So im down to only seven cars now, which is about 5 less than i was averaging (last year i also had a nova gte, astra gte, and a 205mi16 as well as the prelude and track mini etc which have all gone)

and you are not tempted to relieve yourself of another 2 or 3?

put that one back in one piece and get rid of it chip, its a liability! (or even better say "you bent it you bought it!")

No way mate, im not getting rid of the 3 door cossie (well cossie replica now its being rebuilt from an a reg 1.6 shell, lol) any time soon mate, i LOVE 3 door cossie's mate, always have done.

Ill be getting rid of the road going mini soon, its the one i built for cally anyway, and no real use to me now im single, lol, and i may get rid of the Teg next year possibly once im bored of doing the nurburgring in it (the main reason i own the car is to take it there :D) , and the mini convertable im considering getting rid of as ive only driven it 2 times in the last 3 years, and only done 2000 miles since i built the engine 5 years ago!
Dont know though, got a lot of sentimental attachment to the mini cabrio so i may not be able to bare with parting with it!

I dont think half a dozen cars in excessive as a hobby anyway though, and its a lovely varied little collection by anyones standards :D
