Scoop

I did mean the new one. But if we are talking classic Bentleys a huge 4.5 would do me.
Pic of a Red Label for you. Shame you had to sell yours

Nice Daydreaming thread!!

Hmmmm...

Hartge X5 (good call, whoever said that!)
Aston DB5/6 all "James Bonded-up" (?!)
RUF 996 Bodied Porsche Turbo (with a babyseat!)

G.

 

P1 Scooby tuned to the limit
TVR Speed 12
New Shogun LWB for carting the kids, dogs etc about.

but with 5 mill I would probably add

R34 Skyline
Aston DB7
1950's Ford Pop with a big block V8

 

AM Vanquish
Speed Six Bentley
S500 Merc.


Looks like the Vanquish is a lot of peoples dream car right now.

 

Not mine I think the DB7 Vantage looks better.

I suppose I'd have to settle for:

Pagani Zonda C12S
Audi RS2 for loadlugging
Last one would be a toss-up between a F550 Maranello, Aston DB7 Vantage or some sort of Bentley. It's very difficult, coz you have to leave room for a track weapon as well (Superlight R500, Ultima CanAm, etc.)

This morning, on the Braintree bypass, I saw a BMW X5 towing a Caterham Superlight R500 on a trailer. Not a bad combination

[Edited to say I thought about this on the way home, too, and need to find space for a 288 GTO, a 246 Dino and a 911 Turbo (practical everyday transport) too. It's all too difficult...]

Audi RS4 WITH : sorted alloys, suspension and MTM stage 3 or 4 conversion

Ferrari 550 Maranello, with Koenig twin turbo engine conversion and all other necessary modifications

AND since it 3, and ONLY 3 vehicles for purely selfish reasons, and to bring me back down to earth, AND because I have ALWAYS wanted one, a Peugeot 205 Gti 1.9

 

Holden HSV GTSR (410 bhp)
Aston Martin DB4 Zagato (original not sanction 2)
Range Rover with Overfinch engine conversion to tow the race car.
Now I know how Nick Mason feels !!!

<B>and I'd cheat and have a seperate garage containing:
500bhp Escort Cossie
1000bhp Skyline
Mk II RS2000
Metro 6R4
RS200
Peugeot 205 T16
Road going Formula 1 car (its been done apparantly)
Mclaran F1
Jaguar XJ220
Ferrari F50
and I would build a private street racing circuit too.
Why? Cos I would be able to.

Astraboy,

it said 5 million not 50 million, with your 5 million you'd barely be able to afford to take the cars anyway!!!

Worked it out mate. The cars would cost just shy of 2.5 mill. Thats with all tuning work, 50k each for the Group B stuff and a mill for the F1 car.
That leaves 2.5 mill for the exact replica of the local 1 way system

Cool thread
Bit of a thinker though!

I'd go for:

1. Maclaren F1 LM.
2. R34 Skyline (Tuned to about 800bhp and fully race-kitted by Jun).
3. 1999 Impreza WRC Tarmac spec (Minus stickers and logos).

Then i'd go to Japan and compete in all those illegal midnight street races with the Skyline

Did any of you read about some Japanese bloke who brought over his Top Secret Supra (1000 bhp) inorder to illegally do 200mph on the A1??

Well he only managed 197 i think....

 

If i could only have 3 then :

R34 Skyline, 22B and a nice practical 330d touring.

although i'd have to hide the rb5 somewhere

 

He would have done 200mph if he had used "Optimax" !!
