Default Your perfect garage

I was thinking. What am I going to buy when I win the lottery?!

So, to start a fun thread, what SIX cars would you buy?

Here are mine. A bit varied, but covers everything from supercar, family saloon, practical everyday and camping for the weekend! Oh and of course a scoob.

After having a little think, deciding this was a lot harder then it seems, I would probably Choose:

One of my favourite classics, BMW 2002 Turbo



Nearly sensible German estate, RS6 Avant



Supercar, Lamborghini Aventador



A (new...) Interceptor R Supercharged



R34 Skyline



And my Scoob of choice, RB320

Ring toy.... GT3RS 4.0


Then for Sundays Porsche 918


Scoob.... 22B (popular choice, wonder why )


Winter car...Range Rover V8


And finally, Mk2 Escort Mexico (caged for some rally fun of course!)

You can tell where I am going with this..

Zonda Revolucion - I have rented the circuit today..

Ferrari 458 Speciale

McLaren F1 - There is still no real substitute?

Porsche gt3 rs 4.0 - even if Radical SR3's with bike engines are faster!

Dartz Prombron (Because.. Mother Russia!) and trips to the ghetto's of Brighton!

E63 AMG S Estate


My massive garage has room for 4 more

That 22B picture looks familiar...

Some great choices already and picking just 6 cars is tough, but here goes:

Ford RS200 Evo
Ford GT40
Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R V-Spec II
Subaru Impreza S5 WRC (why have a 22B when you can have the car it's based on!)
Ford Fiesta Mk.8 4x4 T16 (rallycross car, converted for road use: would be hilarious at traffic lights! )
Lamborghini Sesto Elemento

The rest of my winnings would go towards advanced driving tuition to make use of the above!

Daily Driver


Because I always wanted one



For a Jaunt down to Monaco via the Mountain Passes


A bit of noise and sideways action



Probably not a keeper but would love to own one



And the best car ever made
