Only 5? If I win the lottery I'm going to need an ex NCP car park!
Off the top of my head, definitely a Citroen SM, a Lamborghini Murcielago, a mk1 Capri (either a 3000E or a RS3100), an early 2 door Range Rover, Audi RS6 Avant and I would keep my current Audi A4 for old times sake. Still loads more though, some classic Mercs, Maserati Granturismo.....
Either of these - I met a Belgian family in Rwanda with one - they were taking their 2 young kids round Africa for 2 years, to give them a 'proper' education before they started school! Perfect for long trips in far-flung places. Theirs had a quad-bike on a lift on the back!
2. Landrover 130 camper
3.1965 Porsche 456a (I had one 10 years ago, sold it, still regret it)
Standard arches thanks! I had a 73 3000GT but it was a right old rust bucket but went really well (probably a lack of weight due to tin worm). Mind you I'm not sure about not having power steering!
5 car garage. That's going to be a tough call. Win the lottery? Or share a lottery win? Let's say you only have a million to spend. A Ferrari 250GTO is too pricey, you'd have to allow 10 to 15 million to prize one of the 39 out of the hands of the likes of Chris Evans or Nick Mason. Chris might part with his one day, but Nick isn't dead. Seeing as that's not available...
1) Jaguar E type convertible, but which series? Straight 6 or V12?
2) Lotus Elan 1966 coupe.
3) Rolls Royce Silver Cloud 3.
4) VW camper van.
5) BMW 528i or Mercedes C350. Gotta have a shopping car.
Friends of mine will be shocked that I don't list an MGB, despite owning one for for 30 years. I don't need to buy another, I've got no plans to part with mine!
I've been in an Ariel Atom they actually make them in my Parish lol. I currently have a Colt Ralliart and would love a Evo. But the Insurance ain't too clever for me with my naughty speeding fines
I think an old landy would be nice too and a decent camper van or summin would be nice
I'm not allowed a motorbike broke my wrists last time on my zzr600. Before that I smashed my FZR400. So I really need something solid around me

A bit tail happy the MK1 3 litre Capri.
Bag of cement in the boot and a prayer book for when the brakes faded out.
