If you won the Lottery!
« on: July 15, 2018, 02:42:15 PM »
If you had a huge lottery win, what car/cars would you buy.
I would have a Jaguar I-PACE, for everyday motoring, and a Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid, for the longer journeys that would require recharging the Jag.
What would be your choice/choices?

Not really the point to the question.

Ok Jocko

Nothing fancy a CRV.

But I would love to have a drive in an E type Jag.

I would import a brand new Honda Accord from the US and keep the Jazz for our daily trips with the dogs and when we need the space. ;)

I reckon a Jaguar F type convertible and another CRV, but a new one this time.

Difficult one but I am taking into account my advancing years.

1) Retain the Jazz as a "Q" car when I don't want to draw attention to myself.

2) Nissan Leaf 40 kwh to satisfy my itch to own an EV.

3) A Porsche 911 Turbo just because.

That little fleet will see me out lol.

I'd have the Jazz sent off to a specialist restorer, and have it put back into concourse condition!

No. My lust for the exotic would be satisfied by the 911 Turbo.

I would employ a chauffeur and lease whatever I fancied at the time.

I would, for going into the city, but I enjoy my driving all the rest of the time. I don't think I would need the Porsche much. For trips beyond the range of my I-PACE I would probably hire a helicopter. Or Rolls Royce's new flying taxi, when that comes along!

You're in luck. Prince Charles' old Range Rover is for sale tomorrow.
