I really fancy a 911 996 GT2 or turbo, mad cheap now for the car you get, also really want a bonkers Ultima GTR, and I suppose a prancing horse , probably a 360 at some point, just to say I have had one. Seriously mulling over an E39 M5 to replace the 530d as a daily, but not sure I can put up with the MPG for the moment 
Don't think I could sell my Escos or Saff, both will be with me for a very long time, and I do want a nice big power white 3 door as well at some point.

ferarri f1 spider. I know they arent the quickest & there is far better performance cars, but i've always loved them since i first saw one. One of the best looking ferrari's ever made IMO & realistically its affordable. If money was no object then a Zonda!

My journeyman at work used to own a red series 2. Every time I opened his toolbox I saw a picture of that car and wanted it so much. When I got my own toolbox he gave me a picture of the car to put up. I still have the picture there nearly 5 years later.
Anyway, I bought his old car last year. I had big plans for restoring it to it's former glory. However, it was the most rotten piece of
I have ever seen.
Turns out your dreams sometimes don't live up to their expectations. Still, if anyone knows of any other rotten shed's kicking about, i'll easy give it a shot.

Happily retired
To me it would either be a 1936 Morris 8 series 1 a 1953 Riley Pathfinder or a 1955 Jaguar 3.5 Saloon, they are amongst my favourite cars. I will own one of them after i sell my Cosworth. The Mercedes SL300 gullwing is my all time favourite but a little out of my price range now.

NO we are buying you a nice fresh car this time and I am coming this time to stop a repeat of last time happening
It's a date. We def need to get something sorted out. Fed up speaking about it. If I had a tenner for every time i spouted about getting another 1 I would have been able to afford concourse by now.

The only thing with the M5 is that IMHO it is not a "weekend" sort of car? You either use it for it's everyday greatness, or buy a more interesting weekend toy?
Watch the price of the V10's plummet as they fall out of warranty though
, single figure MPG & a SMG that is known for big bills!! It is a great car no doubt, but again would you keep one tucked up for the weekend?

Realistically...
Tornado red 20v Audi coupe turbo Quattro.
Could probably buy one now but not practical enough for a family and I have a toy..
Dream car..race ready f40
I would love to build up a copy of the silver listerine rs500 that didnt Finnish it's first race(I think). Looked amazing imo.
Tough question! Lol

+1 make you right ellie and quite a realistic too but will have to be a speced one as i am just down the road from abbey motorsport and see there cars at the garage all the time and they are quite big so would need to be over 400 horses to be better than a scoob at 280.
Still, i will at some point get a 3 dr but NOT as a replacement, it will be another garage ornament
Incedently there is the last registered r34 gtr in my town for sale. 51 reg, 40k

Realisticly (hopefuly)- Audi S2 coupe, 55 AMG of some sort, decent spec Saph Cosworth, 66 Mustang coupe, mental spec Hillman Imp.
Any one of those would do.
Money no object? Too many to list...
