What you are trying to do is not possible in PHP.

You would have to create multiple classes that extend each other:

class cars_base
 {....}

stop.php:

class cars_base_1 extends cars_base
 {....}

but this is rarely practical. Much rather try to build an object structure that is easy to split into separate modules that do not need to extend each other - or, if it clearly belongs into the same class, live with a lot of code in one file. With a good IDE, that's not that much of a problem.

This is not possible in PHP, include doesn't work like a macro.

PHP 5.4 will support Traits, which offer what you want. But in the current stable version of PHP best you cen do is inheritance ;)
