What would you do with £15k, hypothetically speaking

[p4cks]

OK so for the purposes of this thread...

You are given £15k tax free

What would you do with it if you already have a half decent car?

[richs2891]

Hookers ?
Travel ?
If like to drink - have lots ?

All of the above ?

Maybe buy a classic / car always desired?

[soad]

Track/weekend toy?
Motorbike?
Or both.

[p4cks]

Good suggestions.

Motorbike - been there and done that. I struggled to keep them upright.
Weekend car - Got a VX220
Classic - Had a Clio Williams
Hookers - I live in a town where the locals are cheaper than a hooker (in every way)

Invest it.

[aspirated]

Invest in shares

Set £10k aside to put toward a house deposit.

£5k would be spent fully restoring my MK2 golf including a new engine setup

Save it. Then build on it, get to the point where you've got a years salary to hand.

I'd buy premium bonds, much more exiting than the bank until the interest rates go up.

not sure what I would do with it, the only new cars I want are stupid money like a GT3 or an R8 V10+

yes, my wifes excitement when she wins £25 is palpable, I try explaining that unless she wins a million or even 50 grand, it isn't really winning.

Invest some of it may be a possibility. I've been blessed with the ability to turn a profit from a car or two so maybe I'll have a project or two on the go.

15K? Spend it on petrol and hotel bills - it should last a couple of months.

[rouge59]

Funnily enough a small endowment we took out on our first house matures next month, so we're getting just over 9 grand and honestly haven't a clue what to do with it.

There's nothing we particularly want or need and interest rates are poor, so I'm thinking about premium bonds too.

£2k on a suspension refresh for the 996. Holiday. Stick the rest in the pension.

[Actus Reus]

Hookers and coke.

Or maybe give it to the wife to look after as we have a baby on the way.

Probably hookers and coke.

[Axionknight]

If it had to go on a car? Push it towards some sort of TVR, pure and utter madness and why the feck not I say!

Invest as a deposit for a house for me!

[A900ss]

Fit a Supercharger and spend the rest on a roll bar, brakes, suspension and insurance!!!!!

[cheddar]

Visit my Dad, give him £3k, buy some golf gear, 4 tyres for the Amarok and a new fireplace for my cold house.

Any left over I'd give away.

[dalzo]

I saved that up to buy a new car and ended up getting a lease deal on a golf R.
I'm probably going to use it as a deposit on a house then rent it out
