Having just checked my tickets, I'm not the lucky soul who has just won £84,500,000!!

However if you are on PH, please can you spare me a few grand, really need my new house rewiring, getting fed up of candle light!!!

What a feeling £84.5m, the first thing I would do is pop over to my local Audi garage, they've just taken delivery of the first r8 spyder, is rather sexual!!

Really? An R8? With 84 Million? I mean, no offence but an R8 just looks like a TT to me. And you could have a Gallardo, Bentley, DB9, Zonda........... (And I do mean ALL of them biggrin)

I can't find my ticket!

How soon do you reckon we will find out the location of the winning ticket? If its miles away from me I won't be going through the bins at work...

Wasn't me. And wasn't the syndicate that I'm the manager for at work either.

Never mind. I'd only go and spend it on stuff. biggrin

Yes and so would i, i infact would have a more interesting list than the standard collection you have there.

But i mean the Audi garage would be the FIRST thing i do. Be realistic here, you are not going to spend the first week of having the money going round buying every car you ever wanted.

But considering the audi garage is 10 mins away (Closest place to get a DBS is 80miles the other way from camelot!), id go there first pick up the Audi and then start planning my trips to Aston Martin, Lambo etc. Then i would turn up in my audi and buy the others!!

biggrin You don't know me mate - I certainly would - hell, I'd just be travelling all over the shop to get them on the Sunday - PH For Sale board would be on fire !! Then I'd be running about desperately trying to find a house with enough garage space to house them........

The only place I know of is Romans near Epsom but if I had just won 84 million I wouldn't be going there

I would be ringing them up and getting them to bring something to me biggrin

Lol i'm guessing i'm quite tame and i'd first thing i'd probably do is buy a few properties... THEN buy myself a fantasy garage... probably keep it simple though... Porsche 911 classic duck tail, range rover sport, nissan skyline GTR... That would probably be it...

Share the wealth out a bit with the family, get some holiday homes aswell, find something which will yield a steady return on investment and live off investments for the rest of my days...

I don't think I'd get more than 7 hours sleep for the first week, I'd be looking at so many things to buy...........

I'd spend about 30 mill on cars and a hangar.

30 mil in the bank.

24 mil to live on.

Easy.

I would be a tight git, park my money somewhere for a fixed % monthly intrest and go shopping for toys every month on payday!!!!

84mill @ 5% = 4.2m/12 = 350k monthly! I would probably go easy in month 11 and buy a Zonda in month 12 for xmas!!!

I bet there not going to refund my text messages that they couldn't deal with a couple of hours before the closing deadline.

They send me a reminder telling me I can buy them via text and then can't bloody deal with them !! mad
