What other cars do you own?

I've loved looking through this thread, such a good mix of vehicles, what a lucky bunch we are!

Here's mine, a 2006 Alpina B5 (money pit), Suzuki TL1000S (because why not) and a BMW K1300S (for commuting).

That has to be one of the best sounding engines ever.
That's one of the main reasons I never moved it on. The noise is just addictive. It has a Capristo exhaust fitted which really brings out the race engine scream. It really does sound like F1 used to before they went full NVH on the engines.

Forgot to say one of 900 left in UK unfortunately Lotus never sold in big numbers as ever with hand built, parts bin type of car it wasn’t a good selling point, however it means it a car that flown under radar with its engineering and handling capabilities few car can match especially at a realistic price point it does put to shame exotic car at triple the price “bargain of century” as clarkson stated at the TG review back in 2009
