I think it would change the way that you look at vehicles. I have four and three are not road-worthy. The fun is in the tinkering, and the time is in finding bits and working on them yourself.

I think it would be very tempting to not do this any more. Therefore owning a bonkers modified Corsa would lose its appeal when you started paying people to work on it for you while you were jetting off around the world.

I disagree Ian, people like cars for different reason. I love driving more than anything but 9 out of 10 times il do anything to get out of working on it.

Yeah my point was about doing up something like a Corsa or a Punto to the spec that you dreamed of as a teenager.

Half the fun is doing or, or at least buying the bits even if someone else has to fit them.

Obviously building a car to drive and use is a different matter. But then you would also get bored of a Corsa LET fairly quickly when of course there are nicer drivers cars out there.

I'd seriously do this with the rest of my life...

I'd buy a massive unit somewere nice. Then get all the insides decked out about 3 car ramps, all the tools from Snap on with massive box's for them. Then in the corner would be the biggest spray booth you can but i'd get a top top painter in to teach me how to get really good. Id have a lounge are with a PC and drinks machines etc etc.

Then i'd spend the rest of my days rebuilding awesome cars and selling them for zero profit either that or set just set up a super car dealership and as long as it breaks even then it's all good! I'd just make sure the cars were 10000% sorted

I would buy a spanking new Insignia OPC/VXR and an Astra D OPC/VXR

And then a whole lot of old school opels like;

Ascona A 1900
Ascona b black jack
Kadett C GT/E
Kadett C coupe
Kadett C 1600
Kadett C caravan
Manta A 1900
Commodore A 2800
Commodore B 2800
Lotus Omega
Omega B2 3.2

And ofc do my corsa properly

Then I would buy me a farm and build a workshop and a parking area for all these beauties, and make a rally cross track and a derby area to crash and destroy all the fords I could come by

I'd buy a massive barn or two, then fill them with as many of these as I could - Ford Escort Mk1/Mk2 - , in whatever trim I can find them;







Then I'd buy one of these - Koeniggsegg CCX - for fun;





Then one of these - Holden HSV Maloo R8 - for the daily workhorse;





One of these - Holden HSV R8 Clubsprt/Tourer - for the missus;





A couple of these - Land Rover Defender SVX - in varying sizes for tending the land I'd own (I wouldn't spend a major Euromillions win on Automotive goodness alone...)





And one of these - Vauxhall VX220 Turbo - for whamming around race tracks;
