My God
 

A good friend of mine (Dave) has just changed jobs. He once told me that his former boss had some awesome cars.
Last Saturday I went to Peterborough for Dave’s surprise 40th Birthday party and after a while a few of them came out to look at my P1.
One of the guys was Dave’s former boss and he introduced me to him.
We got chatting and I asked him what cars he currently had, so he told me. He stood there with his eyes closed throughout and said the following:-
Enzo
F40
FXX
FXX race car
330 Gt
456
356 GTC/4
308 GT4
Gallardo
Diablo
Countach 5000
Murclelago
Mucleleago race car
Espada
GT2
GT2 race car
GT3
959
911 Turbo (2 of)
Carrera GT
Carrera GT full race
Bentley Arnage
Bentley Continental Flying Spur
Two weeks ago he had a Koengsegg CCX delivered.
He has just done a deal with a guy and bought a Pagani Zonda R.
The Saleen S7 is being delivered in February.
He is currently having a £ 3.5M house built with a garage on either end. When you drive in the left one it takes the car down into an underground garage built for 40 cars. To exit you drive onto a platform and come up in the other garage.

After I had got up off the floor I asked him his favourite.
Reply: “Enzo, I use it as my car & currently has 26K clocked.

When he began to list his cars I asked him to stop, which he did. Reached for my iphone & hit record, then asked him to start again. This is how I have remembered the list.


I remember walking away thinking yoooo flash bastad 

:vom::vom::vom::vom::vom::vom::vom::vom:

Money can't buy taste, not one impreza on that list:whistle:

Ha ha, stop dribbling mate.... Nice list:norty:

I think with that list I could live without my Scoob!

The list starts off very impressive, but then goes down hill in the bottom 1/3 in my opinion.
If hes done 26k in the Enzo when does he get time to use the rest???

My boss just got rid of his F50 that he used to use to drive around the field shooting rabbits!!!

Nice list....with or without Scoob!

A banker? :waiting:

He drives the Enzo. Two thirds are in storage awaiting his new house. One third scattered in showrooms around Europe.

Owns a communications company.

I think Tim may have got the w and b on his k/b mixed up!

jesus, talk about splashing the cash!

mmmm carrera gt :tissue: what a soundtrack!

edit/ just seen Clive's other thread about this :mrgreen:

Thats a horrific amount of money. :deadhorse:

I must admit I don't get people who collect "trophies" like that. Drive the bloody things or get them into car museums for people to see. :rtfm:

With an endless banl account I would have no more than half a dozen.

Me too mate. I would be in the cars using them too.

No bad list i suppose

I think my list is better, i've had 3 Vauxhall Astra's and a Rover 114

I see your Rover 114 and raise you a Citroen Xsara :lol:

And I raise you a Rover 216SE :norty:

shame to admit i had a rover 111 for a couple of weeks, but its even worse to admit it didnt drive that bad lol

LOL:five:

Are they matchbox versions? Perhaps that's how he's had all of them.

Couldn't agree more. I would have to use them and I think that 6 is a nice number of cars to have. Afterall, Sundays is for drinking! Would have to have an asortment for different occasions too!

My 6:

Audi R8 V10 - White ( Just love em)
Porsche GT3 RS - White (Always wanted a 911)
Bently GT - Met grey with red leather (My practical comfortable car when I have a head ache)
My Scoob but with advans! (Still my favorite car out of this lot - lol)
Range rover Sport TDV8 - Black with cream leather (for when it rains or I may need to park on a kerb outside the offy)
Ferrari 250 GT California.(Just watch ferris bueller and you'll see why)

Not that I've given it much thought :lol::lol:

I totally agree with many of you and I would keep my Scooby too.
I have been fortunate and driven some good cars in the past including two 911 Turbo's - Lambo Countache, Ferrari 308GT, two Lotus Esprit, Evo 7,8,9 & 10 and many yanks(muscle) and nothing comes close to the P1.

I'm with you on the 250gt california:tissue:

My six this week would be

Lambo murci sv (latest last of the line)
RS6 for everyday
Porsche Gt2 993 version
My scoob (or skullfudges:wink:)
Ferrari 250 gt cali
Something for trackdays.....ariel atom/exige cup/radical/caterham R500 (you get my drift)


all housed in a purpose built oak framed building with car related library above etc etc

I'm not going to be greedy......

Lambo Gallardo
Lexus LFA
I would get RCM to build me a copy of The Gobstopper
RS4 (everyday car)

Plus i would keep my R1

My six would be:

The SLaG
Lambo Gallardo
RS4 Avante
Porsche GT3
Toyota Land Cruiser (with gold ball warmers :whistle:)
Lotus Exige


I could die a happy man with that lot. :doubleup:

not sure what id have really but if i had to have 6 lol they'd be:

Black impreza rb320 hawkeye
Shelby mustang GT500 (elanor)
Black nissan silvia s15 (drift spec)
Lambo Murclelago
Audi RS4

id have some others but the veyron got struck off the list after watching a re run of topgear last night seeing it go round the track

i agree, it just looks fat and ugly i reckon. can't fault the engineering behind it, but it just doesn't look how a hypercar should in my opinion.

love the Murcielago, and for some reason i really like the Merc SLR as well (mostly due to the way it sounds like!)
