Then you have enough toys. :wink:
Not sure you can ever have too many though.
Having been on a few of those - i'd spend the money elsewhere, and rent one once every 2-3 years for a week
The one in the pic is a rental, funnily enough :lol:
Ask J Leno if you can have too many toys. He has c300 cars and bikes and I'm very jealous

Jay once said that his wife preferred him to come home at night smelling of oil rather than cheap perfume.
I've got two classics and the Z which is my daily. If ever my wife hints that I have too many, I remind her how the classics have increased in value (particularly the TR) - much better than money in the bank!
Is that all? :roll:nugget16 said:I'm I alone? My wife said I have to many Toys, a Motorbike, Classic car - Stag, everyday car Lexus CT200, 1 mountain bike, 1 road bike, and a fold up bike. And last the Z4. She has her own car. She said no one has this much when they get pass forty
I have 4 cars (include 2 Zeds), 2 road bikes, 1 Mountain bike, 4 x 50+ inch TV's, 3 iMacs, 4 iPods, 2 iPhone 6's, 2 iPads, Apple watch etc as 'basic' toys. [Not to mention the 3 'spare' sets of wheels & tyres in the garage]
rules is rules :lol:elevensies

im single, so only i can make a call on whats too much
My own particular vice, in terms of realistically or actual superfluous toys is audio related. Specifically tube headphone amps and matched headphones. Just google 'Audeze headphones' and you'll get an idea of the cost of these beasties. I have 4 pairs now and I still struggle to justify them and all the other various amps and equipment to both myself and bemused friends. I'm postponing totting up how much I've spent over the years on that stuff but i know absolutely it's more than I've spent on cars and associated running costs.
Why do we do it?
Maybe having no kids, wife and a paid-off mortgage facilitates the opportunity to indulge, but it's hardly justification!
