You have just won the lottery, first car you buy?
Discussion
I think it would be like going to tesco really hungry to be honest. There's a 'strip' of car dealers near me and I'd go along buying my favourite in each one!
I would however go to the Jag/LR dealer and buy a V8 f-type and a range rover
then I'd go to Audi and buy two A6 BiTDI estates, one for me and one for my dad. I love a good diesel.
I asked the girlfriend, and she said she wants a Mini!
After that, sort out the realities and a good garage before buying all of car and classic, including an e-type to compliment the f-type, and a splitscreen vw camper.

I'd have to fulfil my childhood/ teenage fantasies by purchasing an extremely well-done, highly tuned Supra or R33 GTR.
Given that time would be a factor as my newly fattened wallet would be scolding my right bumcheek, I'd look at the top Jap importers stock and see what 650bhp+ monsters were lurking.
Next on the list would be a super-luxurious wafter, fully loaded new Range or a Rolls Wraith or Phantom perhaps.
I'd then fill the supercar slot with a Ferrari, Pagani or McLaren.
Finally, I'd purchase a mint mk2 Astra GTE and tune it very tastefully with the correct parts, as my old E-reg 1.2 model never quite got to where I wanted it to be before I punted it for £500 in 2000.
I'd maybe even chuck in an Eagle Speedster for its sheer beauty.

Lamborghini Countach 5000 QV.. In white.. obviously. Far to obvious and predictable.
Failing that? Audi UR Quattro.. in white.. obviously. I'm a teen of the 80s!
I have to include a motorbike as well. Ducati 888 SP5.. in red.. obviously.
Failing that? A UK spec Honda RC30.
With the above, enjoying 're-runs' of Miami Vice, I would be a happy man.

GT40 MK2 for me. If I won less than £10m, then I'll make do with a very high spec replica in bright yellow and black.
GT40 here, too... depending on the size of the lottery win. I think one recently went for £7m! I could live with one of these, though, easily... My dilemma would be "would Gulf colours be too obvious?"http://www.superformance.com/gt40.aspx

This will sound lame but probably the first thing I see that I have on my want to try list.
As I live not far away from a Nissan/Mazda/Ford Dealer I'd be walking away with a Leaf and a Fiesta ST (oh and the lovely looking 370 Z they have on the front).

Straight to BMW to see if i can have an i3 to go if not then a leaf
Then extend the garage and house before even thinking about what car to build

I'd buy back my 156 GTA that I sold a few years back and then sends it off for a full nut and bolt restoration.
You know what, so would I.I'd also buy something I could use every day (right out of the box) to go and look at all they hypercars I wanted. So perhaps a Range Rover or an AMG Merc.
Something I could just rock up to a dealer and buy without too much consideration.
Old MBW 7 series or anything from the bargain barge thread, then I'll enjoy smoking around in it and being able to afford to brim it up 2-3 times a week!
I'd possibly buy more cars, but would just get a good hire company account going for the exotic stuff for now, as I wouldnt know what to buy, never really looked into that side of the market before!

A double decker bus.
Then hollow it out to make a luxury motorhome on the top deck & a car transporter downstairs. Then start touring the racing circuits of Europe with a variety of open wheelers/GTs in the transporter bit.
Of course if I won Euromillions, I'd buy an artic lorry & a private jet. The butler could then drive the cars around in the artic while I fly in, drive, then leave.

There seems to be a common theme amongst many here but I'm on the same path - my first would be an Audi RS6 Avant (ideally modified on the performance side of things to stand out from all you other winners, the 800bhp MTM one will do) and then a hunt for an F40 LM and a Zonda Revolucion.
I probably wouldn't be legal to drive for the first month or even in the country, but I would get a Morgan for my mum, Jag for the mother in law, something topless for the wife ( wayhay!!!) and while I would want a CGT, LFA, CCX, Zonda or something equally mental I would probably kill myself first time out or scare myself s
tless I would never use it, so for the time being it would be a Range Rover, XJ or an Bentley for me, something nice but not screaming look at me like some of my future purchases would.
