Re: If you could have any car......
Any Aston Martin - I'm not fussy 
I was quite impressed with my ex-boss's TVR Chimera (sp?) - especially as he let Adam borrow it for his birthday weekend. However, he's now upgraded to a Ferrari - but IMO an Aston Martin has much more class.
Slightly more affordable, I'd have either a Mercedes-Benz 230 SL Sports circa 1964 or an E-Type Jag.

Re: If you could have any car......
There seems to be a lot of stigma attatched to ferrari's though......Everyone with money wants one but they are so unreliable.......you just never know if they are gonna start.
Havin said all that..........if money was no problem then I would probably have 1 just to own a ferrari
Gimme a porsche 911 turbo anyday

He even dropped it off for us - just round the corner from where we lived and left the keys under the wheel arch 
And this was after he let every bloke in the office borrow it and one of them lost control around a corner in the business park and caused £2K of damage 
He hasn't been so keen to offer his Ferrari out!

Snap! I would have gone for the DB9 but now changed my mind and want the V8 Vantage Roadster - oh for that lottery win
