Jeez - you must have bought a load of **** cars
No, only the one Audi.... ;-)
Ah, I'm on my fourth one of those now, and the memsahib's thinking
about buying another one. 'Course, I'd rather she bought a Honda for
me to play with, but them's the breaks!
Here's an early scan from a 35mm slide (pre digital cameras) of 3 of the 5
cars I had at the time (my record for my 'own' cars at any one time - I've
probably 'owned' 2 dozen cars at a single time, but who fekkin' cares about
cars and who was counting anyway?)

See if you can identify *any* of them - the 'red' car was featured in a
magazine as it was the only one in the country at the time (in red, that is
and the Reg. No. was KG6545.... ;-)
It's an RX7 Turbo II, but I wouldn't have thought it was unique. The
middle one looks like an old Landy of some sort, but I'm not sure
about the little one hiding behind it. Could be an old Daihatsu
FourTrak, or an early Suzy.
(Ignore the vans and crap next door - it was a smallholding and the bloke
next door was trying to be a farmer and almost succeeding....)
But the Allegro is a classic of British engineering!
- I'm only on
thirty-two between me and SWMBO.
You're not trying hard enough!
Funny, she says I'm extremely trying........
