One car dream garage? - SV650.org

Im bored in work (as usual) and was thinking about my one car dream garage.

Sounds simple in theory but very difficult in reality, ill explain why...

Rule 1/ no limit to cost of the vehicle or running costs
Rule 2/ no other vehicles allowed (bar a bike obviously) so it must be able to do everything (ruling out ariel atoms) this means school runs or trips to B&Q.

Sounds simple. . . discuss?

Road - going Toyota GT-ONE

-no kids, and if i did, it'd only be one kid at the moment, and they can ride in the passenger seat

-the food shopping can go in the passenger seat

-the DIY stuff can go in the passenger seat. If its too big...then I'll tie it to the roof.

Audi R8. Looks awesome, goes like sh!t off a stick (apparently) and is allegedly very useable as an everyday car.

Either that or an Audi S3.

Mmmm, Audi's.

good variety so far, but I'm sure there are better suggestions out there?

mine would be a black Aston dbs, they have one in stock in Aston next door and I'm not ashamed to admit my trouser snake weeps a solitary tear of joy each time i sit in it!

plus it has a boot and some (small) back seats so i could actually use it day to day.

One car that you could use everyday (realistically) - get stuff in it (cos we all need to do that once in a while) and if you have even a sniff of petrol in your veins - fun to drive

I was thinking an M5 but then I thought - nahh - one of these should do it - even though they are getting a bit long in the tooth now...
