[conaero]

Ok then, say you did win the lottery, I know most of us would head for a dealership, so which car would you buy first?

Me, I think I would go Lamborghini first, a nice Avantor or what ever they are called.

My first move would be to visit Modena and Bologna to have my drivers seats personally tailored to suit my needs , then whilst on a Riviera somewhere i'd be on my lappy sourcing a few beauts for the garage which would be being built , oh and i'd buy some paper clips ran out yesterday

have you given this any thought??

 

[dem maser]

i have to go to park lane and order a GTS.....next day....then collect the car from the factory

 

[drellis]

oh why not a veryon supersport for those leman/germany trips

 

[GransportFan1]

I really dont like that car, same goes for the Koenigsegg.



Veyron has never flicked my switch.

 

[drellis]

i dont like how its looks, but being the fastest on the road and going for it once in your life at 250+ does appeal. I could do it once then sell it

 

[Parisien]

add a citroen ds to the classic list

....another Citroeniste comes out of the closet............had 3 myself D....used one as a daily drive back in the 90s...................

[Parisien]

aqauamarine classic speedboat

......yes...had been discussed before....the Maserati of the water......I'll have one of those too.....


P

 

[dem maser]

im torn.....

 

[Parisien]

Again Dem......200K......on a 458....and say £1million....on a super classic...............................which will only accrue...............

Ok then, say you did win the lottery, I know most of us would head for a dealership, so which car would you buy first?

FIRST car would be a Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe from Jack Barclay in Mayfair. I'd then use this to drive to Maranello in Egham for a GranCabrio and 458 Spider. Lambo would have to wait for the ragtop Aventador

My Aston buying would be done at the factory direct. Factory DBS Volante then straight to Bamford Rose for 7.2 litre conversion. Also I;d be getting to Geneva for the mortor show and ordering the new V12 Vantage Roadster rumoured to be appearing.

Can also use the Rolls to tour the auction houses and pick up the classic collection (Dino, 400 SuperAmerica, DB6 Volante, DB4 GT, XKSS, Bentley Continental Fastback) plus a trip to Eagle to get a very, very expensive early E-Type roadster. A proper old 1929 Bentley with Le Mans body as well please, just for some fun at La Sarthe!

Would need to get cars eligable to race at Classic Le Mans and Goodwood Revival as well. Nothing competitive, would just be for the fun of being there. Probably Astons or Jags.

And just for fun, I'd have my Rover Coupe rebuilt with a V8 and rear wheel drive for some chav-based antics

Again Dem......200K......on a 458....and say £1million....on a super classic...............................which will only accrue...............

Problem with a £1MM classic is will you use it? Every time you take it out, you knock value off it, you can never risk hammering it either. Useable classics are where it's at!

 

[Parisien]

Lewis.......your total came to £5.6 million.......


Yes.....£1 million car would be a not brilliant version of a £ 2million car.......needs a paint job and new interior.....do that after 5 yrs.......only do 1-2k miles a year........
