so it is the big one tonight £100 million
assuming that you where the only winner which 7 cars would you own, 1 for each day of the week.
You have a 0.000% chance of winning whether you buy a ticket or not. The chance of building a 7 car is more likely than buying 7 cars.
i'd buy cateringvan and stop production just to anoy all the snoby cateringvan owners
ultima can-am
bmw x5
land rover 101
volvo 850 R
bmw mini
MG TA
porsche 911
(I struggled a bit there )
Assuming I can keep my actual cars (with all that money it should not be a problem) I would buy :
1/ Ginetta G4 Coupe
2/ Seven Replica
3/ Raffo Belva
4/ Elise S1
5/ Marcos Mantula/Martina/Mantara Coupe
6/ Brooke Double R
7/ Atom Ariel
Could easily add a few cars but you asked only 7 ... ;-)
This is a trick question! If i had £100m i'd have 7 tracks not 7 cars! A rally stage, a tarmac circuit, skid pan, drag strip, banger racing
track, a daytona raceway ring and a 3 mile gravel driveway up to my mansion,

It's not about the winning, it's all about thinking about what you'd do if you did win it!
1) Ultima GTR
2) Westfield Megabusa (probably turbo'd)
3) BMW M5
4) Jag XK8
5) A Small White Van with towbar
6) Good Cobra replica
7) Ford GT40 (one of the new ones)
so how did the irish woman win the 47 million or what ever the last major jackpot was?
I wouldn't want/need to own seven cars. First and foremost though, I'd buy a Porsche 911.
Pagani Zonda
Ferrari F430 Spyder
M3 as a sensible car for family journeys
And another car such as Lamborghini/Mercedes SL55/Aston Martin/TVR, which I've always fancied owning and driving - until the next model comes
out. One that I would constantly chop and change on a monthly basis probably.
Phil
Maclaren F1
Lightcar company Rocket (even though it's a BEC)
'73 911 Carrera
Bowler Wildcat
Lancia Delta Integrali evo2
Lancia Stratos
Fiat-Abarth 500

Yes the jackpot might be 100 million but.... if you read the crapolla on the website each participating country only get a percentage to give out to its players the uk is only getting 22% of that 100 million to divide out so the actual UK allocation of the jackpot is only 22 million a major ripp off and very misleading.
And as said no fecking chance off winning anyway.

Six Aston Martin Vanquishes and a Bentley Turbo Continental for Sundays.
1, Aston Martin Vanquish
2, Pagani Zonda (the soft top one)
3, Jag XJ Daimler super 8
4, Gordon Keeble (look it up - you'll love it!)
5, Range Rover
6, Nissan Skyline
7, My Tiger Avon - no seriousy - imagine an Avon with say.... £250,000 invested in it?
But - why only 7? I still want a Ferrari and a Lotus and a Boyd Coddington hot rod and a rocket car and and
and........

Years ago a guy I knew had a deal with an exotic car trader to use any car on his showroom for a month or two - I don't know what he paid for the
privalege but I thought that it was a pretty cool idea and with 100 Million I would organise a similar deal.
Never have to worry about servicing, maintenance, trade in price, tyre replacement or even washing the car again - just swop it for something else
when you're bored with it.
He drove everything from a Roller to a Lambo.
1: lambo murcielago for going to the pub
2: Ferrari F430 spider for going to the beach
3: Audi RS6 for everyday driving
4: porsche 917 for racing
5: cadillac escalade for taking the family out
6: ford F150 for shopping
7: my MK indy for sunday driving
ooh its nice to dream
1.Porsche Cayenne turbo s- for towing my car trailer
2.Porsche 911 4s Cabriolet for daily use
3.Porsche 911 GT3 RS for track days to go on the trailer behind the Cayenne
4.Porsche Boxter - standard with speed restictor (65mph) for Mrs Mooky
5.Porsche 911 carrera classic from 70's
Not sure about the rest maybe an Alfa and a rally car or possibly a porsche of some sort
There seems to be a theme going on here - I don't know if anyone has noticed.
Cheers

funnily, its a 100m prize but a 1 in 63m chance of winning due to the rollover they will actually make a loss this time, offset by all the recent
sales with no prises.
i dont intend to buy a ticket anyway, but these are some of the cars i like:
nissan navara
tvr sagaris
f430
brand new sprinter no point stopping working!
id buy a 1000bhp chevvy engine and build something for it
a dp1, but maybe the v8 with 2 turbos extra?
one more? gotta be a luxury 4x4, id say modified hummer.
That said, i doubt id buy any of them, i would have other plans for the money.
If I won I would let my butler (Jeremy Clarkson) decide, which car I drove on any particular day.

Or Emma Parker-Bowles.
Edit - Louise Goodman should be in there somewhere.
