    Most of these people have 'curators' that take care of the cars, presumably including driving them short distances.

    Yeah, Jay Leno has a couple attendants, they're full on mechanics. His main mechanic I would guess would be Bernard, but he has a couple other guys at his garage too.

    Deal. Soon as I'm feeling suicidal I'll head right down.

    I could see that as being a better chore than choosing what to wear each day. But I do tend to agree. If I had that kind of money I would probably limit my garage to 10. Almost seems sacriligous to have to pay someone else to drive your Mclaren F1 to keep it in shape.
