Just dreaming a bit.......

Post by snipez999 » Tue Nov 29, 2011 11:19 pm

I am just practising for my upcoming lottery win and going through a few scenarios on a 100k budget.

1. Keep X6 for another 2 years; trade in wifey's Q7 for an X5 40d; buy an M3 convertible for a fun/weekend car.

2. As per above but M3 becomes 1M coupe (not as much fun and a bit 'too small'?)

The constant is that the Q7 becomes an X5 40d.

Thence:

3. Trade in the X6 and buy a 2012 BMW M5 (test drive this saturday)
4. Trade in X6 and buy a 2012 Nissan GTR and a couple of spare sets of brake discs with the difference
5. Trade in X6 and buy an M3 coupe or saloon and drink the difference

Most of my fantasies do include BMWs I'm afraid, so just play along and humour me ;-)

I reckon scenario 1 myself, as it allows me to keep the everyday derv and jump into a filthy petrol guzzling missile for golfing soirees.

M3? - why not an M6? :driving:

In white with black wheels (the largest you can get obviously). That's a proper petrol-guzzling missile............... :police:

oooh..........and get Jason to 'breathe' on the ECU
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.

If still wanting a 4x4 I'd get a Cayenne Turbo and remap that.....lol. Or I'd just supercharge my 4.8is...woohoo.

Oh and an E60 M5 (as I do miss my old one) on an 05/55 plate as tax is only £245 ....lol
