Default Any car, any price, what would you have?
If money was no object, say you won that £112m on the lottery that I didn't and you were to buy your dream car, what would it be and your reasons why?

For the purposes of this thread, let's keep it to ONE choice

My choice would be this:

Ferrari 250GTO



















Quite simply because I believe it to be the most beautiful car ever made by a man And all the bargain price of £350k

I'd love to own this just for the craic, it would be so satisfying to pull up at a posh hotel and give the parking valet your keys

You could have a right laugh in it when your out and about.

I have just had a call from my local OPC offering me a brand new GT3 RS and would I be interested in swapping in my current GT3

I won't be able to sleep tonight. It is madness but I am already counting what is in my son's money box!

It wouldn't be just one

Top of my head:
Ferrari Enzo
Ferrari F1 car from the 90's
Lightweight E-type
D-Type
GT40 in gulf livery
AM DB4 Zagato
Lambo Miura SV
22B
Shelby Cobra
RS200
Lancia Stratos
911 RSR
Daytona Spider
250 GTO
R34
latest Skyline as a daily driver


Oh and a Spitfire, Mustang and a Hawker Hunter

So that's got rid of 15m what to do with the other 97m - Buy an oilfield perhaps

On topic my choice would be one of these babies...

By this, do you mean machine guns, rocket launchers and an ejector seat?
