What would you put in your Fantasy garage.

[obi_waynne]

Ok so you found £1,000,000 laying in your pocket and you get to buy a car or cars. What car(s) would you insist on - I suppose a sensible daily run car, a cabriolet, a sports car and a track day car!

 

[blacklineninja]

Right then, first and foremost I would finish my own Civic. Then get the new Civic Coupe that the Yanks have and modify that up. I'm probably supposed to have a supercar, but to be honest when you mod up a sporty coupe I think they're better anyway, so instead I'd get myself that Citroen C-Metisse that they were showing off and drive around everywhere singing "dinner dinner dinner dinner BATMAN". Ostentatious style would come in the form of my VW Camper on monster truck wheels.

 

[StevieDB9]

Aston Martin DB9
Aston Martin Rapide
Aston Martin V8 Vantage
Subaru Impreza Type 25
Mercedes S class
Mercedes CLS AMG
BMW M3
Ferrari F430
Ferrari Dino
Audi S3
Ford Escort RS Cosworth

Think i'd better put the million in the bank to earn some interest to fuel these cars!

 

[obi_waynne]

That's a lot of cars to polish and clean, let alone fuel! You sure you've not missed any off there?

 

[StevieDB9]

oh could think of plenty more, but need more than a million!

 

[fingers]

I would have my yank fitted with a 426 cu-in (7 liter) Hemi engine (probably the best engine ever produced) and another one exactly the same built especially for the drag strip. 8) And thats all

 

[obi_waynne]

Take 2 cars to the drag strip? Not fingers he'll just burn and go! (lame attempt at humour based on the head and shoulders shampoo advert! )

 

[steve09]

i've thought about this for a while,
for track days
lotus exige
honda nsx (the newest one)
audi rs4

these two for the strip
plymouth road runner
supra mk4 twin turbo

and for drifting
a mazda rx - 7

and an rolls royce phantom for general road use
also, you just have to have a ferrari 612 scaglietti for touring round europe in
plus a bmw 330D for going to the shops in

all apart from the diesel BMW and the rolls would be modifyed somehow engine wise. ranging from a remap to full on everymod you can fit into the car(for the supra and the plymouth)

 

[Prince]

My list would be:
- My (fully modified) Honda Civic Coupe
- A (fully modified) Nissan Skyline R34 GTR V-Spec
- A (fully modified) Toyota Supra
- A (fully modified) Mazda RX 7
- A (fully modified) Audi S3
- A (fully modified) Cadillac Escalade
- A Porsche GT3

That won't cost me much.....

 

[Hansi]

46-56" modified Land Rover, Patrol or Dodge Ram

Ferrari F450

Shelby Cobra with a nice Hemi in it

Dodge Challenger or a Charger, again, with a Hemi

Austin Martin DB9

A modded Van

An modded RX-7 or 8 for the dayly drive

and a Zodiac CZ-7 which is a 7 meter RIB (ridgit inflatable boat) with some kind of a carbon fiber based bottom and comes with 2 250 hp motors, all you need to drive it, drysuits, intercom and is used by the Navy Seals and The American coastguard in bad situations such as hurricanes

Another car you could use both for dayly use and as a great track car is the Ariel Atom, I would like to have either the Ariel atom 3 or Ariel Atom 500

 

[pgarner]

whats the atom 500 ? never heard of that one.
1st was the 1.6 k series rover engine, then the 2ltr honda civic engine then the supercharged civic engine

 

[Hayley1]

A fully modified vauxhall astra.
a bmw x5,
a bmw m3,
an astra vxr,
and an mg.

I think i'd need the rest of the money on insurance.

 

[HDi fun]

Bush, Blair and Brown voodoo mannequins that I can run over alternately

 

[obi_waynne]

@ Hdi

 

[georges]

I will do an overhaul to my existing car and put a fridge full of beer in my garage

 

[Prince]

I like that idea!!

 

[Hansi]

The Atom 500 is a new atom that is being relesed soon. It is 500 kg like the other one but has a 500 hp V8 in the back which makes it 1000 hp per tonne and 0-60 in under 2,5 seconds:bigsmile:

Mercedes SL Black, nomnom.

A Aston Vantage, just for the bloody noise.

I think the SL would do as a day to day rather than a Bentley Continental but I do like those too.

Considering there I'd have around 650-700K left, I best get spending.

R34 GTR Skyline, modified up.
Stock Skyline GTR (The new one)

Thats about half a mill left.

Hmm...

... I dont actually know beyond that... I guess I'd like a Audi RS4, and maybe a Q7.

Let me know if that image is too big Waynne, or nerf it yourself, but people need to see it

 

[obi_waynne]

Yup - I see why you wanted us to see the picture. SWEEEET

 

[Tex]

Ooo, i like these fantasy threads :bigsmile:

Firstly, i would have to build a garage to house all these cars, bet you didn't think of that !

I would have 4 cars :

An M3 CSL for the track
A 911 turbo with full tech art conversion for the weekends
An Overfinch Range Rover (I hate them when i see one, but would have to have one) for the winter.
And i would have a Mercedes 63 AMG for the week jaunts

Then, i'd be happy....ish

 

[HDi fun]

Vauxhall Chevette

 

[obi_waynne]

You need help HDI!

 

[HDi fun]

I know

 

[RobBentley]

Mercedes SL65 AMG
Mercedes C63 AMG
VW Toureg R50 V10

 

[MsEditor]

This is difficult for me as I have to think more along the lines of what I wouldn't buy...

Merc McLaren SLR
BMW 850
AM Vanquish
1967 Shelby GT 500
TR6 1968
Honda NSX
Skyline GTR
Mini 1275 GT

I could go on but I don't think I have much money left

 

[HDi fun]

oy - the word was garage, not hangar.

 

[MsEditor]

oy - the word was garage, not hangar.

hmmm I see your point...

In that case I'd take a trip to the nearest building site - employee someone to build me a garage that resembles a hangar, pay them in kind so that I don't eat into my car fund and then go and buy all the cars...

Does that count?

 

[HDi fun]

Multi storey?

 

[MsEditor]

Multi storey?

Excellent idea - then I can expand my car list when I work out how to get some more money

Like your thinking

 

[Wcnwzrd]

I would get the following:

1995 Nissan 300zx (Fairlady Z) TT - Heavily modded daily driver
Nissan Skyline R34 - Heavily modded weekend driver
1969 Shelby GT 500 - Modded like elanore in "Gone In 60 Seconds", Wife's car
Nissan 240sx - Modded for drift
1972 Chevy Nova - Alchohol fueled drag car with NOS

The remainder would go into a complete shop to work on them in. Tools, Lifts, Pits, the works.

honda nsx-r white
s2000, yellow with black alloys

good call on the rs 500 cosworth forgot about that 1 :embarrest:

 

[turbonutter69]

Got to have the Rs 500 mate It's my fave...

 

[HDi fun]

I'd convert a portion of my fantasy garage and fit controlled chillers. Now I have a walk in fridge to hang and age my Christmas beast feast to perfection.

As for the rest of the space, I'll remove the Vauxhall Chevette and install a Mercedes Benz/AMG A55.

And squeeze in a Touraeg V10 TDi for high days and holidays.

 

[turbonutter69]

You on about that VW 4x4. I think they are great I really do like them. I'd have 1 too.

 

[billyo]

Hey HDI just get a freezer van or an ICE cream van as one of your cars.

 

[Loz]

Ok so you found £1,000,000 laying in your pocket and you get to buy a car or cars. What car(s) would you insist on - I suppose a sensible daily run car, a cabriolet, a sports car and a track day car!
