£170,000,000 anyone ?

[Chris S]

I'd buy my employer's firm and sack everybody who has pissed me off.

 

[EltonFrog]

I've always fancied a tank

I thought Mrs D had just got one.

Its Cockney rhyming slang.

 

[johnblack]

True but as far as l know he doesn't.....have 170 m. so l hope she doesn't read his words !

I think she'd agree, spending too much time with me wouldn't appeal to her.

 

[Reynard]

Lifestyle-wise, it wouldn't change me. I'd still go yellow stickering. Beyond the obvious of upgrading car, tech and tv package, what I'd like to do is:

1) Buy a classic FF1600 e.g. Van Diemen RF86 and dabble a little bit in this motor racing malarkey
2) Set up a scholarship for female motorsport talent - one for driving and one for engineering
3) If they still exist and haven't been scrapped, there are some racing cars I would love to own
4) Get a season ticket for my fave footy team
5) Set up a generous monthly standing order for my local branch of CP

Ok, I've got it, my final and sensible list.

A Pashley.
An Alvis Stolly.
A Vincent Black Prince (the motorbike, not the sex toy)
A Rover P6 V8.
A forward control Land Rover ambulance or radio command unit converted to a camper with a big lazy Perkins diesel.
A working replica of Kaneda's bike from Akira perhaps electric powered.
A Mad Max V8 interceptor replica.
A Plymouth Roadrunner Superbird.
And a new Smart EQ electric to get me about.

I may have mentioned this before, but I'd buy a massive turnip.

 

[Garry A]

I'd just travel the world (first class, 5*) helping people as I went using my vast fortune. A bit like Highway to Heaven but with a rich bastard instead of an angel.

A Vincent Black Prince (the motorbike, not the sex toy)

The fact that you are aware of the options say it all...!

 

[biggs682]

I can buy a modern bike now

 

[EltonFrog]

I’d never pick up a used towel ever again.

 

[Drago]

I may have mentioned this before, but I'd buy a massive turnip.

A nice turnip in the country?

 

[DCBassman]

T54, Alvis Stolly, a Saracen, a Snatch Land Rover, a big field. A new shotgun. Oh, and a Huey and flying lessons. A crate of Laphroaig. A huge amp for my new bass guitar. That's me sorted.

Then I'd made a massive donation to a local charity that is very close to my heart.

Slightly ot, what bass did you buy?

 

[Drago]

PRS Kingfisher, or maybe an original Steinberger.

Slightly OT myself, I'm already shredding through the early Jethro Tull catalogue in between practising scales.

 

[classic33]

I've always fancied a tank, perhaps a T54 or somesuch. I'd then drive it to the pub, library, Co-Op, etc, and generally be annoying in that manner.

Maybe

Ever thought about taking up the flute? £170M would get you a nice one.
