    Ok this is going to seem very strange as a Lotto Style Dream Car buy but mine would be......

    IMPOSSIBLE....cause for some stupid reason Ford Don't/Won't Sell them here.

    Ford Explorer.....ala 24....they are such a cool pair of wheels in all black with tinted windows.

    you'd be rich - surely you could import it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 767 ✭✭✭EIREHotspur


    Thats a bloody good point whoopser.....I never thought of that.

    They sold them for a while in the 90s in the UK but they didn't do well.....thats why they don't sell them now.

    I blame all those cool FBI Shows/Films and 24.

    If I won the lotto I'd be dead happy with a GTR and a nice house...


    But Euromillions...I'd get the GTR first, then an Aston DBS, Ferrari 599, 430 and 355. Few Lambo's here and there and I'd have to buy one of those Catrum things they had on Top Gear a few weeks back to take on the track!

    Oh and I'd certainly buy a nice Teg Type R that I've been saving for the last while!!!

    Mix it up a bit, if you could only buy one car what would it be?
    Mine would be a toss up between a Range Rover Kahn supercharger or a Bently GT contenental.
    I would have to throw an Arial Atom in there too just for giggles:cool:


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,694 ✭✭✭✭L-M


    @bitemybanger, saw this yesterday. Wasn't Supercharged though.
    lol, you saw pic one car, and you pic three yourself:rolleyes: :D

    0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in 2.5 sec, and a top speed of 407 km/h (253 mph),


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,455 ✭✭✭FGR


    Nice choice of home, CyberGhost. Would you get that custom built here on 20 acres of land? ;)

    By the way 253mph is not its top speed, it has been restricted to this speed so there:P

    Hehehe wow, different strokes for different folks ehy...



    Just thinking, that E46 M3 I was wishing for? If I won the lotto, I'd have to buy a season pass to the Nurburgring to go with it really, I mean let's be honest here...
    I'd also have to buy a few acres of some hilly, forested agricultural land and plough a few miles of road through it, because let's be honest, I'd need somewhere to flex my... Er, suspension coils?

    You won't need the lotto for this these days. I have seen these for sale at repo auctions for €30k (OK admittedly not 07 and without the Kahn makeover)

    This car just delivers. More than any other car ever did.

    The best of Italy has to be serviced after 4 fast starts :rolleyes:

    The best of Japan isn't even covered to do 1 fast start :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    God i love them Kahns

    It was nice alright, none of the interior was done. Kahn sent us a brochure. The amount of work the can do on the interior/exterior is unbelievable. Passed a Gold Range rover Kahn as well today in Ballymahon Co. Longford.

    I think i'll add this to my list as well

    So many choices, so little time.

    I'd defo get a tuned S600 as well as a fully loaded 7 series Beemer, always love the look of them if I ever see one. Have to stick in a Ferrari of some form just for the childhood testarossa memories. After that i'd probably buy anything that looked shiny and fast but would defo add in a MX-5 to the list purely for the fun factor.

    One thing for sure tho', is that if I did win such money and get such cars I would be dead within weeks I reckon. When I have the M1 all to myself I just can't help the heavy right foot even with the fear of an accident, even with the fear of the law, even with the fear of the unknown. Now if I had the above how do you think I would control myself?

    Well i'll encourage you. Your speeding tickets could bring us out of recession. :D Nice choice on the 7 -series and S600 btw.

    And that's me off. Happy new year to all

    Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupé.

    A car of utmost class and integrity. A car of vulgar wealth perhaps, but still a beautiful machine nonetheless. A car of engineering excellence, a bespoke item of luxury and comfort.

    The coupé though, unlike the saloon Phantom, is a car to drive, not to be driven in.
