4 cars, not counting one recently sold;
•2008 Fiat Punto 1.4 JTD- Mum and brother's car. Kinda fun.
•2003 Ford Falcon RTV ute- Dad's- Nearly impossible to see out of.
•1991 Toyota Landcruiser Diesel- I'd rather not these days, but it's what I drive when required. Thirsty, slow and stupid. I'm not entirely clear why we still have it.
•2008 Winnebago Birdsville- Mum and Dad's. I shall say no more of it.
7 Bikes, although there are probably more hidden beyond sight;
Me;
•2008 Specialized Allez Elite Double
•2008 Giant Reign0
Brother;
•2008 Giant Elwood
Mum;
•2008 Diamondback Wildwood low-step
Dad;
•2004(?) Giant OCR3
•2001 Specialized Rockhopper Comp
•~1980s Specialized Stumpjumper... Steel, looks like the original design.

Update:Verbs & Nouns wrote:1 car (a Holden Viva).
3 Track Bikes (all three get ridden, two almost daily).
3 "ladies bikes" (step through etc) only one gets ridden at the moment.
1 Singlespeed "Utility" hard rubbish bike missing a bottom bracket and crankset (on one of the track bikes).
3 road bikes in various states of being pulled apart / re-built / converted.
and for the win...
1 1930's Lewis frame set with a Major Taylor stem and bars.
Oh yeah, there's just me and Mrs. Verbs & Nouns.
A new track bike has been added, two of the road frames have been given away to better homes (with more time to do something with them), another ladies step-through is being cleaned up to sell, and I forgot to include my skateboard.

Embarrassingly small Smart Car
'63 Chev Belair
It wouldn't fit in the boot, but it sure would fit on the boot.
Also starting up the Belair uses the same amount of fuel the Smart Car uses for a week... haha

One car
Four bikes, one not mobile. One bike is probably worth more than the car.
