I’m afraid you find me in a bit of a mood. Yesterday, I’d hoped to seal a deal that would see yet another addition to my fleet, bringing the total number of vehicles in our household to 13. And you’d have thought that particular number was warning enough that all might not go entirely according to plan.
Yet as I return home, dragging a depressingly empty trailer behind me, I’m still sulking, thinking about all the adventures I now wasn’t going to have in a car I haven’t bought. ‘But Joana,’ says you, ‘surely you already have enough cars?’ And I’m equally sure that you mean well while still being entirely wrong. Allow me to explain.
My experiences with cars over the years have taught me a lot. I know exactly what I like (and what I don’t) from my driving experience. I’ve also learned to accept that, unless you have Porsche 911 money, no car can truly do it all. So instead of trying to convince you why you should buy a particular car, I am going to share my ultimate petrolhead hack: the science of multiple car ownership.
