Agree with an Audi as personal transport, but my choice would be an S6 - I'm not into huge huge cars. My E-Type would be a Series 1 4.2 FHC in metallic light blue or silver, probably built up from scratch on a brand new shell and running gear, but using the identity plates from an original 1964 onwards car (my E-Type knowledge is pretty good as I used to work exclusively on them).

Road bikes would come and go as my mood took me, but there would always be at least 3 or 4 fairly newish trackbikes on the fleet, so me and a handful of my closest mates could load them into my truck and send my driver off to whatever european circuit we planned to attack. We of course would either fly or be chauffered to our 5 star hotel close to the circuit for the duration.

Naturally, I'd build a luxury house with indoor pool in the middle of nowhere, with a connecting door to the largest underground climate controlled garage and workshop I could get away with. The clinically clean workshop would house the contents of the Snap-On catalogue as well as a 4 poster car lift, CNC lathes and mills and all that other stuff us 'hands on' people dream of owning.

The rest of my money I'd waste on eastern european ******.

Something makes me certain that your lovely girlfriend might be secretly glad she has hearing difficulties at times.

From Razor's link:

Instead of living it up, she is driving a borrowed second-hand car, living like a hermit in a backstreet flat in an area plagued by joyriders, shopping in half-price sales at a retail park, going to drive-through fast-food chains, and living on supermarket ready meals.

She dresses like a Mrs.Dowdy, she doesn't bother doing her hair or applying make up. She eats crap that has seen her weight soar. This woman has serious issues I tell you.
You tell me she can't at least get out of a flat in a questionable area? She can't at least buy her own car? FFS? Shopping in sales??????????

That's been my policy so far!

I've always wanted a 911 Turbo so that would be purchased. I'd have a whole fleet of bikes

One thing that i would do is pay for all of us on here (that wanted to),

Ur my best friend

Well i would clear the mortage buy the mandatory big house with plenty of land to rack about on, give family members a few quid, go on a family holiday of a lifetime, but most important thing would be to have the biggest pi-- up ever and everybody would be invited

Oh and a new bike lol

I'd buy a Tiger tank, loads of petrol to run it on, a big bag of Haribo and some chocolate milkshakes with the change, Mmmmm.
