Daily and track car would be best imo, could rag the track car and not have to worry about getting from A to B.
In the meantime I will just drive my Corsa tho until I can even think of affording anything else

However, this when applied to a vauxhall makes literally NO sense
Not if it's a Lotus Carlton Jam Or a Monaro, or a V8 Firenza etc.

I have 2 cars due to the mileage I do for work which is a 44 mile daily round trip. Went a week using the Cupra and a week using the fiesta and I was saving £20 a week alone on fuel with the ford. Yes it's a diesel but I wouldn't like to have to rely on the Leon. It would cost me a fortune over the year.

I do 14 mile round trip normally. It's not an issue in my 2.5 tdi t4 transporter as its pretty damn good on fuel. 700 miles to a tank. Winner.

How much is a tank in that Nick? Mines £60 to fill it and I usually get about 250 miles maybe a bit more out of it

My daily is my bicycle. Then use the MX5 in shit weather and for weekend blasts.
In the process at the moment of buying a house that has a garage, car port and driveway big enough for about 5 cars. May get a second car then to save the MX5 from the shit westher. Porbably go for something cheap and cheerful like an old Fabia.

Option for one for me. Do too many miles daily that I want to be in comfort for and have a cheaper but fun toy. Which is exactly what doing.
In an ideal world if I did less mileage I would want just one prestigious/fast car.

I'm a fan of the two car setup. Thinking seriously about an electric car now too

Went for one really nice car. I've owned two cars at the same time before and tbh I didn't enjoy it!
