    I have 4 Volvos and a piece of crap vag.

    Ones off at paint, 2 on the drive and 2 on the road in the parking bays.

    Although, 1 will be sold early next year and another will be on the drive (3 car drive) so only 1 on the road.

    But I get on very well with the neighbours, I'm the first person they come too if they have a flat battery or need help with a tyre change etc, my mot inspector is my neighbour who also drives an 850 t5.
