You can do it for cheaper like 5-6k but having the national geographic biologists and photographers there would be an awesome experience.

Ferrari Dino for me - I know its not a fast Ferrari but it was the first Ferrari that I ever went in at the tender age of 10 - in fact it was one just like this and the passenger door would sometimes shut properly - sometimes it wouldn't - so it added a little jeopardy to every trip It sparked a love of cars that is still with me.
If not this - then one of these.

Thats a bit of a stab in the dark cost wise..... between $800,000 and $1.5 billion!DMC63 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 19, 2018 12:30 pm With the necessary funds I'd be going down this route I especially like the fact I'd have my own missile defense system
The reason for having this 'Boys Toy' is...To have a great time, like all the loaded folks do. I've had enough of living second rate. If reincarnation happens I'll be paying more attention next time round.

Most of the time you hear figures that are close, like £200- £300.

For me that would be the one-off OEM E34 M5 convertible: combining the car I should have never sold (that is an E34 520, not an M5) and the Z4. Or to put it differently: pure 90’s p#rn:

Blimey. The poor old Buzy brain can't quite compute spending 1.5 billion on a weekend toy.DMC63 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 19, 2018 12:30 pm With the necessary funds I'd be going down this route I especially like the fact I'd have my own missile defense system
