I'm pretty boring, I'd be going something like
Bikes:
2006 Ducati 999R
Ducati 998R
Aprilia RS250
Yamaha R7
MV Agusta F4 Thou
Cars:
Aston V8 Vantage
Ferrari 599GTO
Ferrari 458 Spider
Ford Mustang GT500
Aeroplanes/ Helicopers:
Some old school piston engined WWII figher. Spitfire or P51 Mustange ideally.
Westland Gazzelle
Something from the military jet turbine era. Harriers must be getting sold off cheap, but they're tricky to get a ciivilian license for I imagine.

I'd build a small race track for personal use, I'd aim for something like a small Mugello but without the windy bit towards the end, perhaps replicate some of the better corners of other tracks and throw them in too.
TBH I'd probably be more interested in cars than bikes if I had that sort of money. I don't particularly like race bikes, have no nostalgic conenction to old bikes and current road bikes are all rather attainable without being a millionaire, so it would just be a big naked like a Striple, a generic 600 supersport a S1000RR, maybe a few old strokers (to try them out), a quad and a supermoto. Would be tempted by a desmosedici RR.
Cars - would have a dirt course built. Get a few ex WRC cars in there, an RS200, perhaps do something daft like kit out a F430 with dirt tyres. Also I would have an aerial atom, 458, and a Diablo, in fact a couple of Diablos. |

I would get Egli to make me a Norvin then ride it as my everyday transport.
I don't like cars and I don't like driving them so I'd probably get some big luxobarge and pay someone else to drive me about in it.

I'd have an 1100 Katana - preferably that one that was in CMM a few months ago - the one with the custom Yoshi system, purely because it's totally inappropriate 80's bling.
Also, the Vyrus Moto2 bike, because it looks awesome, and they look like they may have the FFE right.
Goldwing bobber, because the early ones look awesome.
Something SM-flavoured; I don't know what, though, because I've not ridden a proper one yet, only the Chinese thing in my sig.
Early 'blade, because they look lovely, and are reputed to be good.
Aprilia Tuono, because hearing BlackWolf's one with the custom cans gave me the rampant horn, and they look like an obscene amount of fun. I'd have to do something about the back brake, though, because seeing how Paddy returned after a ride did give me pause for thought. After a lot of laughter, that is...*
I'd like a VFR, because I just really like the idea of a V4, and one with gear-driven cams, at that. It's just something that's really nicely engineered.
Speaking of which, I'd get CHR15 to make me a turbocharged CB1000R.
As for cars, I'd throw some serious money and time at rebuilding a Land Rover so that it sounded good, and didn't leak all over the place. I [h]hate[/h] the way they sound, but they're a total hoot to drive, so I'd love to twat about in one.
I'd also lob a ton of money at an old MG-B: uprate the suspension, brakes and engine. Not quite enough to make it into a proper sleeper, just enough to improve the drive overall.
*I'd have blatantly shat myself on that, too. Wheelie beast with no back brake? Definite brown trouser machine.

Don't really like sports bikes, I just find them pointlessly single minded, but one of these would be amongst my first purchases...
https://img64.imageshack.us/img64/6128/hondacb1100r.jpg
Then, I'll have another one of these..........
https://img839.imageshack.us/img839/3755/kawasakiz1300.jpg
And I don't like the new one, so one of these.........
https://img535.imageshack.us/img535/1550/yamahavmax.jpg
Probably a 350LC (in Blue, top and bottom fairings, chrome Allspeeds, white wheels and seat) a dirt bike of some sort and maybe an ELR or GSX1100ET.
As for cars, having been in the trade as long as I have, I find it hard to get worked up about anything, but one of these would be on the list...............
https://img834.imageshack.us/img834/598/astonv8.jpg
Then I'd send it back to Newport Pagnell, get it repainted in Wineberry, retrimmed in grey and an auto box fitted.
An Interceptor SP, either a very early or very late Corvette C3, a Quattro S1 and an 850 T5R in Cream Yellow (for doing the shopping) would probably be tucked in a corner of the motor house.
And I'd go racing again, in something very unlikely in the historic saloon class.

Besides, why the flying cans?
I'd rather have a twin prop type plane for transport and a fast jet trainer for entertainment TBH |
