I would be tempted to get something custom like this.

Probaly a Skoda Fabia Monte Carlo. Really like them.

Then a Clio 172 ph1, V6, DC2, Imprezza P1, Exige S1, 997 GT3RS 4.0 and a whole host of others.

No interest in Ferraris, lambos etc.

I'd find the newest 458 in the country thats available today and go and buy it.

Then drive it to wherever wifies choice of newest Aston is and pick up that.

Probably then a Rolls Royce Phantom, just because i could.

Then probably a top end Rangie for slumming it in.

I'm increasingly of the mind that my first Lottery car would be a boat.

Perhaps this one:

This'll probably sound all hippyish but the first thing i'd probably buy would be a camper of some sort and just bugger off for a bit, going wherevere I pleased.

Ferrari F40.

For years I was convinced I'd never really want a modern Supercar, but I must admit the 458 Speciale changed my mind on that.

Still, sure the F40 will tick the supercar box enough and I'll get a Maserati Gran Turismo for my daily driver.

That's nothing, there used to be a Bentley Continental convertible knocking around my way with a similar layout to the colour scheme... only you'd have to replace the white with vomit lime green. A little bit of bile came up every time I saw this monstrosity.

Anyway, mine would be an MGZT260 with an appointment booked in to have the supercharger bolted on the day after I got the keys (if it didn't already have it) and to have the little V8 badges removed, give the Audi 2ltr TDI brigade a nasty shock.

Probably something accessible, that I could walk into a dealer and walk out with there and then. And probably a 'normal' car.

A Porsche Cayman would do me fine.


Then, I would take my time mulling over I would really like.

I think I'd go for a classic. I'd take the time travelling to shows, talking to dealers to make the make the choice, and then I'd spend the time meeting owners to track down a good one. After all, money buys time.

first thing would be a house with big enough garage (4 car minimum) and suitable grounds for gated privacy.

then in no real order.

458 Spider. Rosso with cream interior
Range Rover L405. Grey with Tan interior tow monster
Exige S (and enough track tuition to use it as a track toy without binning it)
AMG SL (for the Mrs)
Mint R5 Turbo
E63 Estate.
