I'm thinking about changing mine - the tax and the petrol are getting so expensive!!! And I'm already claiming the max allowance for fuel ...... But, then I look at it, and remember why I bought it in the first place..... A bit like a marriage really! LOL

Yes, but this is in the dream lottery win world.If money were no object I would have my Mustang to race at track days AND an every day car.
In the real every day world I drive hubby's 20 year old LPG conversion £500 Range Rover! Looking at getting a car of my own from the auctions very soon though.

If I won the lottery I'd be out of this country as fast as I could - a nice villa on the Gulf Coast in Florida would do me. I wouldn't stick around here.

I would move, but stay in the UK. I would move to the West Country and have a self buid eco home where I would run my holistic therapy business from - I would keep busy, I think.

I wished I could have got out of this country a long time ago - couldn't afford to though.

When I retire, we are thinking of selling the house and using the proceeds from that, together with my lump sum and possibly moving to France or Spain.

If we won the lotto this week,we've always said that hubby would get an Aston martin DB5 convertible and I'd have a Triumph herald soft top, would still keep penny pug though as I wouldn't want to part with her,[:I]..Then we'd move to either Ireland or Scotland and build our own art deco style mansion, with a view one side overlooking the sea and the other overlooking the hills,oh and a helicopter too would be nice[;)]..First priority though would be to triple check that the money was definately in our account first and it wasn't just a dream[:D] and secondly,pay off the IVA (yippee)..I wouldn't forget the family,friends and my forum buddies on here either[;)]..Looking at this shopping list, it would have to be a pretty substantial lotto win as well,oh!! how nice it is to daydream eh!![:0]
