But such a loonnnggg night waiting for the garages to open the next day!!!

 

[jotter22]

Not if you drive to the other end of the country for a dealer!

Tony.

 

[guydewdney]

I think they (the dealers) will be doing the driving....

 

[Mr. B]

That didn't take long to get out.

I thought he / she wanted to stay anonymous as difficult as that maybe.

While I find the notion of coming into an enormous sum like that somewhat disturbing, the last place on earth I'd want to be is in some car dealer.

I'd probably order a nice 3 litre Citroen C6 though. Now that is the act of someone with money to burn!

 

[Dieselman]

If it was me,I would be in other parts of the World for at least several months, why would one want a new car?

 

[Palfrem]

..is it about time we did another dream 10 car garage list?

Mine would be whatever the days chauffeur turns up with.

I'd be resident in Monaco, have a nice flat in London and travel the world to all the places I'd like to visit taking in some of the world's finest sporting events on the way.

Cars ? Maybe at some point ...

Especially their wife's.

I'd be resident in Monaco...

Really? The only reason people become 'resident' in Monaco is to avoid tax and the lottery win is tax free. No one actually lives there

Nah, I'd see the world by chartering a superyacht (no need to buy one) and my new team would organise anything else I wanted, including cars (also rented)

They had to go public really. You can't keep an £82M win secret for long.

I'll bet I could! I'm quite happy to be sponsored to test the theory!

 

[Charles Morgan]

I have nothing against being wealthy but the notion of living in a tiny high rise apartment in a congested Monaco to avoid tax strikes me as one of the most absurd things to do. Especially as most of the women are the epitome of the morticians art - faces so lifted and botoxed that they would scare off most zombies.

 

[mattc]

I thought the lottery win was tax free but the ongoing income (surely £4m per annum on £82M) can be taxed? Despite the tiny apartment setting you back £1.5m you can quickly see the attractiveness of residency regardless of the upfront costs.

I would then travel the world, living in rented places as I 'sampled' local culture be it in Italy, Uraguay or Japan. As Janner says just rent what you need when you need it.

When the Wanderlust had lost its shine I would buy a place in the Cotswolds and a beach front place and helicopter between the 2 or take the road less travelled in this.

Good luck to the winners; I hope they have a wonderful time with their winnings

 

[jotter22]

82m....Hmm i might even think about packing up work!Lol
