So You've Just Won the Lotto.

Hornswoggle

So, you've just won the lotto, and the first thing you go and spend your money on is a nice shiny new car. What car would you buy and why?

Personally, i'd get a TVR Sagaris.




Yes, i could easily afford a Bugatti Veyron or McLaren F1 instead, but i don't want to spend all of my winnings just maintaining the car!

So what one (yes, you can only pick one) would you choose?

Picking just one car, that'd need to do everything, is really tough.

I think i'd go for sosmething quite understated, a VW Scirocco.



No need to splash all the cash on one thing!!

Mr Benevolent

VW Phaeton, no question.

I'd get myelf an E92 M3, and a Fiat 500 abarth because it looks like so much fun to drive.

I'd buy my neighbour's Lambo Gallardo for running to the shops, that would give me time to choose something else

Is you neighbour ever going to register it here:D, how is it so many expensive cars are not VRT'd in this country??

I'd buy an E92 M3 and an S8 or an R8, or an M5, oh wait... depending on how much I won, i would have to limit my self to a very strict budget, lets say less than 300K on cars!!(a year if it was the Euro millions)

In fairness, it only appears at my neighbours' every so often for about a week at a time. It lives elsewhere. I like to think of it terrorising Puntos and Micras in the wild somewhere.

On a serious note, some form of an M would do nicely - or maybe the new Z4 coupe - I quite like it.

I'd wait a few months and get the new Golf R. Yummy. 270hp AWD and looks damn good too.

Oh I should have made it clearer. The Golf R would be my Monday car. :pac:

If I did have to go for one car though......it would be either an RS6 Avant or S8.

It only has a straight six engine so it shouldnt be THAT hard on fuel.

The money i save on petrol could be spent on replacement engines!

brandon_flowers

and a big field to wreck it in.

ShaneU

Aston Martin V8 Vantage

Danbo!

Straight to the dealers, RS6 Avant please, oh and have you got any trailers you can attach to lug the R8 home too?? Thanks

Ok, I know I will get slated for this, but what the heck; I'd buy a Volkswagen Multivan Panamericana with all the bells and whistles. In black, with leather interior, 2.5 TDi with DSG box, Premium Satnav+Soundsystem, privacy glass, 18" Wheels+sport suspension, integrated double bed......

Well I'd go all out and get a Golf comfortline then

robtri

which lotto are we talking here... irish or Euromillions????

big difference in what I buy then...

no1beemerfan

A BMW 760Li in black with blacked out windows, black suit (MIB Style) black sunglasses, slicked back hair and be the "fcuk off" driver I've always wanted to be.

Henry Ford III

Big bucks? Can you get an M5 Touring? Either that or an Audi RS6 I think.

If I won €100,000 I'd buy a Focus RS however.

donvito99

A Superb, with all the bells and whistles.

CLK Black 500hp :eek:
