Money is no object, you may buy three new cars. What?
Discussion
3 years has gone sice I said this-
RRS Svr with all options in black with silver wheels
Aston Vanquish S - daily and GT with a lot of customisation by Q
Mclaren 720s - fully customised by myself using MSO - I would have an incredibly individual car
I would now have this now - 2 daily's (me and wife) and a weekend car
Aston dbx - Q again - dog wagon and smart occasions
Porsche taycan turbo s - look good and would be used everyday
Ferrari 812 The best one they do or Ican get my hands on - GT for touring Italy/Europe
And if they had to fit into my current lifestyle and I had to run them I have on street parking at home only but a unit where weekend car could live-
Volvo v90 T8 - everday dog wagon for me
Audi RS E TRON GT - smart daily for wife
Lotus exige sport 420 - Light and nimble compared to the everyday cars could double up as a track car.

If I didn't have to worry about running costs or space...
Rolls Royce Cullinan for tip runs and taking the dogs on walks.
Alpine A110 as a daily.
Unimog with a grab lift, because Unimogs are awesome. Probably in bright orange. With a lot of lights. Really a lot of lights. Quite a lot like this one, though I might have jollier wheels and the crew cab.

Excellent choices #2 and #3. You lost me with the tip car though.... but, other than my own, this is still my favourite list scored on points. Rolls Royce Cullinan for tip runs and taking the dogs on walks.

Thank you.The tip/dog car obviously needs to be something with a bit of ground clearance (those unmade roads to the woods car park get a bit gnarly), and I don't see why I shouldn't be comfy. Also it's got a decent sized boot, and it'd be perfect for going on holiday in the UK when that's sensible again. And I felt I ought to exploit the freebie aspect to some extent - otherwise I'd stick with an AWD estate at which point it's not as interesting an exercise.

Whereas in your Unimog, everyone is going to think "what an absolute legend", before presumably being run over by it, or seeing it remove part of their house, or the other cool things you could do with your Unimog.
My tip car was the Defender 90, in full on milf-spec with alll the options loaded. Won't be quite as comfy as the roller, but you're limited to only the cross section of the public who post on PH "it's not a real Defender" thinking you're a k**b
Too late?
Daily: VW California Ocean 4 motion DSG with whatever Dynaudio/media upgrades their price list will permit. Not sure about the two tone paint, so can I come back to you on that?
Fun/Track: Alpine 110 Legende GT with full Life package, storage, fitted luggage etc. Blue, with the brown interior too please.
Drama: Aventador SVJ. Verde Mantis, or maybe Arancio Borealis. Just because if I went for an 812GTS or 720s, I'd worry I'd been a bit too shy & retiring.

Just thinking about this, I don't think I was bold enough. Money NO OBJECT!
Well given the Rolls Royce custom build program mentioned here:
https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
Rolls Royce Wraith Shooting Brake. The perfect all-round GT car.
A Lamborghini Sian as a Supercar, because everyone who can should own a Supercar at some point in their lives.
Rolls Royce Cullinan, but built to my own spec. Essentially an expedition vehicle with roof tent and other associated capabilities.
To be able to travel for 1 week unsupported in any environment from Africa to inside the Arctic Circle. A bit like this but less over tyred. Definately Portal Axles and a body which you can walk on the bonnet etc.

Nice. Lovely colour too. I may upgrade my Cullinan to have knobbly tyres, though as you say, perhaps not that big.To be able to travel for 1 week unsupported in any environment from Africa to inside the Arctic Circle.

F40 came immediately to my mind as well, but the OP said new cars.
Oops. Missed that bit! That's 66.6666666% of my choices invalidated then.Errrr... Money no object, commission Ferrari to build me a brand new F40 "continuation"? Which would probably cost so much that car 3 will have to be a Dacia
