That's fantastic.

I'd like to think a Euromillions win would buy that but I think I'd still be a fair few mil short!

You might have enough to buy a door handle and a set of curtains for one with a euro million win lol. Average fuel cost for the year is £400,000 lol docking fees I'd hate to think.

I'm told by those that know about such things that this would fall into such a category. It's the world's roundest object. If it were scaled up to the size of the sun, the distance between the highest and lowest peak would be 14mm!!!



It is apparently being used to define weights to unprecedented levels that will have hugely significant use in future space travel and other more early benefits.

I'd quite like a Saturn V. In full working order with a qualified pilot please.

Technically this one had a little help from a woman too but lets not quibble.

Thread should have ended here (albeit with constant reposts of this picture).

Agreed

Both Concorde and Riva Aquarama feature very highly on my list

If push came to shove, I think it would have to be one of these (there is only one), though I'm sure it will change tomorrow;



Bugatti Type 57 Aerolithe, the body is made out of Magnesium!

I saw that car being built...

Well, Elektron (a Magnesium alloy) if you're being fussy.

Which I never am
No sir

Thank you for the correction, everyday is a school day

From a materiality PoV, my own spit, which I could fly, would be heaven!

'Oh, taking your 911 out for a spin are you? I think I'll take the spit for a razz'

Also means my kid would have the ultimate trump card!

I have the privilege of (albeit vaguely) knowing Olivia Grace. Her mum is Carolyn, who owns and flies the Grace Spitfire.

It went something like: "Mum's out flying today". "Oh yes, what's she flying?". "A Mustang". (Sound of a penny dropping somewhere inside my head)

250 GTO.

For me it would just be one single Bank of England bank note. The TITAN. I'd REALLY like one of those!!

Rubbish. You'd be bored of it after a few weeks.

I recognise that. My neighbour spotted it in the med last week and posted on FB that the Arabs had arrived. Judging by the vast size I guessed it must be relatively well known and a quick Google showed it up in no.12 in the world of super yaughts by length. Owned by founder of Stolichnaya Vodka...so not an Arab. If you could charter it, reckon over a mill a week...crazy!
As a design piece though, that Riva is stunning. Being that Clooney has a house on lake Como I bet he has one to trundle round in...if he doesn 't ....he should.

Ive always liked the faberage eggs.

Is the right answer.

As a Dutch friend of mine once said "There is not a pretty girl in the World that someone hasn't got or will not get tired of fking."

Go to be this for me - Patek Calibre 89.

You can keep your nouveau-riche yachts, watches and cars. If I can't have happiness or peace (which millions of people have fought and given their lives for, so I think its probably the most desired thing but is admittedly not an object) then I'm going to show off alongside the chap (or lady) in the Spitfire with one of these:
