Criteria.


You have £1,000,000.  You can have 4 cars.  What would they be, and why.

Include pictures.

Sports - Ferrari F430 Scuderia 16M Spyder


Wagon - Brabus G-Wagon


Muscle- Shelby GT500 "Eleanor"


Daily BMW M3 GTS in White preferably


Really wanted to slip something Japanese in, like a Switzer GTR P800, E900, or the new 1000 they are working on, Veyron eaters.

With the change i would get something like this built



And a visit from this dude

Id also have around £700,000 in change.

Aston Martin DBS - because its beautiful and fast (enough)


Range Rover - for comfy family shuttling duties


Fiat 500 - because SWMBO wants one (yes, in this colour)


Mk1 MR2 - because I always wanted one

Bentley Brooklands -


After being a passenger in my dads Arnage-R, I would like something similar for myself in future, without the "new money" image of the Continental.



1980s Chevrolet Suburban.  - Ive got a soft spot for Yank pick ups.


Alfa Romeo 8C spyder. Just to look at it.  Just look at it.


Lexus LS600 H L - For family lugging duties.

Keep em coming

They have the non-spyder of this in my local Alfa dealer. It really is stunningly beautiful. Drives like crap though (apparently).

3x mk1 coopers - by weight that totals about 1 modern car I think.


a10, £350k?


Lambo - ~£270k?


Daily runabout - ~£55k?

Arial Atom or something. Id keep the change for the inevitable repairs/replacements when it gets keyed or stolen, as well as the no doubt stupidly high insurance and tax, and ridiculous fuel consumption. I might just be able to afford to run it for a year before running out of money ><

Long journeys - Maserati Quattroporte GTS (~£110k) Beautiful looks, beautiful sound, love the image it portrays too, gotta be red though.




Sports car - Lexus LF-A (~£330k) Originally gonna be a GTR but this is even better in terms of gizmos and technology. Lush in white




Town runabout - Ford Focus RS500 (~£35k) Something to pop to the shops in, matt paint ftw




Weekend car - Noble M600 (~£200k) Keep it British, rare and swift as fook, love the light blue too.




Leaving about £300k for insurance and maintenance

a big truck
a pussy wagon
something that goes fast
why would I need a 4th?

Well Im sure this isnt the definitive list, but its what I could think of at the the time.
After watching top gear last night I really want a Veyron, but remembered that it cost like £1.6 million, so thats not gonna happen. Anyway here are my choices:



Maserati Granturismo with MC Sport package. I think this car is super sexy, and pretty fast too.



Nissan GTR. Gotta have one of these because of all the electrical wizardry. Id probably sit in it stationary on the drive, just playing with all the fancy gizmos

Heres where its starting to get hard, there are so many cars I would buy if I had the cash, so narrowing it down to four is hard work!



Merc C63 AMG. Could gone for the S65 AMG, god knows its MUCH more expensive and probably better equipped, but I really like the look of the C63. Also its probably considerably lighter than the S65 but still has the ability to carry 4 adults in relative comfort.



This last one was so difficult, I couldve gone for the SL65 Black, 458 Italia or 599 HGTE. But in the end i plumped for the porka, cause Ive always wanted one. Considered the GT2 and GT3, but figured this would be easier as a daily driver, and also probably comfier too.

If I was going for a 911 Id be torn between the Turbo Cabrio or the Sport Classic.

I do have a 4th

aerocar
The tail & wings fold up & you tow them around like a trailer

unfortunately, the last one that sold went for about £2.5m

Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren for pant-singing pace and sell my soul to the devil good looks. Would have it in black though.


Have to an Alfa just for love. Couldve been one of a handful in the end.


Porsche 356 - because I saw one in Monaco and I was instantly in love.

Something a bit more comfortable.
