Ok, Bit of fun. Add up all of the cars that you have held log books for and have been driven for a week or more on the road (so you cant count your
partners car or a donor that you drove home once).
Add up the number of years you have been passed your driving test. Dont deduct any years that you may have been banned for!
years divided by cars. 2 decimal places.
Mine is,
18 cars
19 years
Ratio 1.05:1
4 : 1
4 years
1 car
5 years
6 cars and 2 motorbikes
18 cars
27 years
Ratio = 1.5
If I include the bikes in the gaps between cars
32 bikes,
18 cars
27 years
Ratio = 0.54
What does the ratio mean??
3 cars (and I only just got the last one)
10 years
= 3.33
but I've actually had twice as many scrap cars (that I've never driven on the road) in the same time 
17 years / 11 cars = 1.55
2.875 (not inc motorbikes)

how quickly you change/crash cars?
yup, the lower the number the worse your driving I guess
^^ or you can't make your mind up
so which do you think is better - a high or low ratio ?
I'm quite happy with my high ratio
more so considering how cheap the cars have been

33 years
13 cars
2.54
1.33 ..... in 4 years LOL!
I was wondering how long it would be before someone asked what the ratio meant. TBH it doesnt mean anything really. Just curious how long people have
been passed test and how many cars they have had.
low ratio could mean several cars owned at once.
Company cars and track cars should be counted as well i guess if they have been 'owned' by you as in are your car for a duration.
Burgger, i forgot about bikes. Lets do cars only.
haven't the faintest idea how many I've had over the years, usually had 4 in the garage and 6 outside that continually changed. My insurance company hated me for the number of times I changed my polices

Wow I must be either tight or an ECO WARRIOR.
We did a list all the cars you have owned thread a while back but I can't seem to find it.
I would know my ratio better if I could see my list again.
Anyone remember what the thread was called?
Cheers
