Money no object - what will you have?
Daydream time...
You've won the lottery and are stinking rich. The Scoob has, obviously, been turned into a million-horsepower monster with enough torque to reverse the spin of the Earth.
But your thoughts now turn to another road car, a money / insurance / running costs no-object toy for those days when the Scoob is in the garage having more performance mods done.
Me, I do a lot of thinking, flirt with an F40, consider a Noble M600, and finally end up with a Dauer 962, on the basis that it is as close as I will ever get to being allowed to unleash a Group C racer on the Queen's highway.
So... what do you guys buy, and why?

But, as a toy, I would probably get a MX5 Kendo Special Edition ..... more fun on 4 wheels cannot be had.
An Arial Atom would also be in my garage for mad days!!

Can't fault you on the Atom though - standard 300bhp model or the *****-out V8 nutter job?

I love the Fiat 500 Abarth lol and you've gotta have a hot hatch for when the weather is too crap to take the expensive motors out.
ooh and a Nissan GTR V-spec
Mazda RX7 with a stupendous engine spec
aerial atom (only take out the wimpy V8 and stick a decent size V12 with a turbo or 2 bolted on it)
challenger 2 tank (so I can go and take out every inconsiderate jumped up arrogant non indicator using arsehole in a BMW)
most things built by Top secret as I think the things they do with the cars they use is absolutely amazing
A police interceptor evo 10 for a laugh
And plenty of shares in shell because I think I;m gonna need em

Why not combine the two? You could have a V12, twin-turbo Atom with a 120mm main gun!
You'd be stupid not to do it!

Mk1 i'd make like a Roger Clark winner. And the Mk2 i'd make like Mcrae's red and black. Then i'd probably build a Stratos. And a group B Quotro. And then i'd probably get a GT40 for work, and a Ferrari F40 to get bread and milk.
I'd buy my girlfriend a 22B - when I get time to have a girlfriend.
