Thanks for the replies. Time to own up - I currently own the following in age order. 1926 Bayliss Thomas (fully running and road worthy), 1930 Ford Sporting Trials car (basically a load of parts), 1968 Lotus S4 Elan (all there and in need of a complete rebuild as it hasn't run for 30+ years), 1974 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible (running but not "on the road"), 1987 Callaway Corvette (currently for sale), 2006 Jaguar XJR (215,000 miles on the clock and my daily driver), 2010 Jaguar XKR for special occasions such as going to Le Mans. What I feel I need is a focus / plan of action as the number of cars is greater than the available storage space. NITRO450EXP - your suggestion is the best so far, but land prices where I live make this close to impossible. Oh for the space you guys have in the USA.

Thanks for the replies. The suggestion that you build the garage with some of the cash is a great idea. Especially as I have already sort ff answered my own question, as I currently have 6 cars. These range from my daily driver (Jaguar XJR with 215k miles on the clock) to the 1926 Bayliss Thomas Speedster.

You have 250k to spend (it doesn't really matter if its $US, £ Sterling or Euros) do you buy one supercar/great classic or say 5 cars; for example a 100k supercar, a 60k classic, 40k veteran and the rest on a couple of fun classics. With one car you only need a single garage, have just one annual insurance payment, plus one annual maintenance bill (if you are lucky), but they may all be big bills. A 5 car (or maybe more) collection gives you a range of driving experiences, chances to attend a range of events and potentially more fun (or grief when things go wrong). Plus you need a BIG garage to house the collection. So, what would you do and what would you buy.
