As some of you will no doubt have heard, some lucky so-and-so in the UK has scooped the £51M jackpot on the Euromillions this week - shame it wasn't me but good luck to 'em I say.
Anyway, I’m sure this will have been done before but for the sake of new members (and if long-term members will indulge us), what would you have in your fantasy garage (if money were no object) and why?
Here’s my fantasy collection, which includes two cars I’ve lusted after for a long time – the Mercedes G-Wagon and Porsche 911, plus a mix of other personal favourites.
Alpina D3 Bi-Turbo Touring in mineral grey, as my daily driver (ideally an Allrad, if only they’d sell me one) – I’m a fan of Alpina and this is a fantastically capable and well judged car.
Mercedes G500 4x4 Squared, in white like this one – just because I love the G and a G on steroids is even better! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teMq-y-tx34
Unimog Classic Truck – don’t know why but they’ve always appealed to me.
Mercedes C63 AMG Black Series, preferably in red with the Aero & Track Packages – loved the look and spec from the moment I saw it.
Porsche 991 C4S Cabriolet, in GT silver metallic with Carrera Sport wheels – for sunny Summer days and bright blue Winter skies.
Singer Porsche 911 Coupe, in white with half black leather & hounds-tooth cloth trim and green on black dials – for the attention to detail and the visceral feel of a road car that still does analogue.
Kremer Porsche 935 K3, or more likely a replica – I have fond memories of watching these race as a child – having one in the garage would be awesome beyond belief. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5yr3UdovjA
BMW 3.0 CSL Batmobile, in Martini Racing colours – my first boss had one in his collection and was kind enough to let me drive it (aged just 17) – something I will never forget.
BMW 507 Roadster Series II, in silver with a red leather interior – just because (money no object) it’s an achingly cool classic and perfect for a Sunday morning drive.
Audi Sport Quattro S1, in Tornado red – I grew up watching 1970’s and 80’s motorsport, including rally heroes like Stig Blomqvist, Walter Röhrl and Michèle Mouton, so one of these would have to be in my garage.
Finally, a BMW i3 – for nipping to the shops....
Right, now I'm overdue a massive dose of good luck, so I've got dibs on the next big Euromillions win - you can form an orderly que behind me

Do you already have plans for the restoration or is it a 'one day' sort of thing?
) - she fancies a GLA AMG 45, so better add one of those too.
