But im starting to like the styling of the 918s
It could be the white (because race car) paint but I think the 918 looks the best of the three in that shot!

Beautiful!

That is a rather nice collection to have. No idea how you choose which one to drive though.

Badly titled thread.

'Luck b*********'

He didn't win these cars, he worked hard, sold his business, and now is enjoying his wealth.

He's not 'luck'

and he's not a b******** as far as I'm aware - although if he is, so what?


Good on him actually buying dreams.
How do you know he's worked hard? There's plenty of tossers out there who've had a big helping hand being in the family business when there's no way they'd cut it if they had to stand on their own two feet. Of course they don't see it that way and don't like to be reminded of the fact. There are few successful people who've started with jack nothing and not had assistance on the way. Who was it who said the first million is the most difficult and it's easy from there.

Rutland

not far from me. Hopefully I'll see one them about!


What a day though. Going to pick them three up. I wouldn't know what to do with myself and I'd be worried to death about anyone else driving the others!

"the cars are nice but the speed limits only 70 mph. that means the only use for cars like this is posing."

Paul from the West Midlands reminds me why I don't read the comments on the Daily Fail.

I believe Mr Bailey is in fact a PH'er although he hasn't posted in awhile.

Nice collection and well done!
