  A brief summary of results on homotheties in General Relativity is given,
including general information about space-times admitting an r-parameter group
of homothetic transformations for r>2, as well as some specific results on
perfect fluids. Attention is then focussed on inhomogeneous models, in
particular on those with a homothetic group $H_4$ (acting multiply
transitively) and $H_3$. A classification of all possible Lie algebra
structures along with (local) coordinate expressions for the metric and
homothetic vectors is then provided (irrespectively of the matter content), and
some new perfect fluid solutions are given and briefly discussed.
