Current fleet is:

1963 Sunbeam Alpine III GT
1969 Sunbeam Imp Sport

Ones that have come and gone:

1970 Hillman Hunter Royal (Australia-only model)
1978 Chrysler Alpine GLS
196? Hillman Imp rotary - never had it running

Then cars that were in the family as I was growing up:

1961 Sunbeam Rapier IIIA
Sunbeam Rapier II drophead
Sunbeam Rapier III drophead
1968 Sunbeam Imp Sport
1968 Hillman Imp

1934 Hillman Minx
196? Hillman Minx
3x 1967 Hillman Gazelle VI (Australia-only model based on Singer Gazelle)
2x Hillman Hunter

At least that's all I can remember.
