Audi RS2, quicker than a McLaren F1 (up to 30mph) but with space for the dogs in the boot. Oh and they can be tuned up so I won't lose interest in it. I'm hoping to get it's baby brother, the S2 next year.

I do love Veyron's!

But in reality maybe a new M3 or M5.



P.s. Some people's answers on here worry me

4 doors, decent boot for the kids stuff. Supercharged V8, simple engine, loads of em about, should be able to get parts for years.

GT2 RS - God I want one of these! Sawit at goodwood, and fell completely in love with it.

And quite a cool ad for a change from the stuffy germans!
