718: FC's toy car and basically useless
M5: FC's commuter and designated nice family/luxury car
GTI: Mrs FC's primary car and car for sons to drive as needed (Mrs FC commutes to train station 3x per week).
LR4: Backup car for Mrs FC's car or for sons to drive as needed. Also roadtrip/winter/utility vehicle.
So yeah, no need at all for a Mini unless there is a world where I am at work and both kids AND wife need to drive cars at the same time. This is very unlikely until maybe when oldest goes to college if he needs to take a car with him.
The plan next year is to simply leave the GTI outside. No sense in shoving a car next to the 718. The back garage fits two cars, but getting in and out requires care (this is largely due to having so many things back there). It's the kind of thing you reserve for winter storms or long-term situations like vacations and such.

Nothing in the mix for Mrs. FC to covet/love. Lots for you. This needs correction asap.
