So here is mine.

Hmmm... I would clear out the 5 MINI Cooper race cars (:p) presently cluttering up my garage to make room for...

1. Lotus Carlton (completely standard)

2. Ferrari 355 Berlinetta (although I might be tempted to switch this for a Radical SR8... the sexiest car ever!)

3. Audi Q7 (the proper engined 6.0l V12 one of course)

and since there is no mention that they HAVE to be road cars...

4. P34 tyrrell (the six wheeled F1 car)

5. Ferrari F2004 (Schumachers 2004 championship winning car that just blew everyone away!)

3. BMW M5 in white, red leather interior.

4. Aston Martin V8 Vantage (Drove one on a track day last year...amazing!)

5. Range Rover Vogue in black.

...and if i had room to squeeze a bike in there, it would be a Ducati 998 in Troy Bayliss Infostrada colours!

RS4 for every day use (would have an RS6 but I despise auto boxes/flappy paddles)

Caterham R500

Bowler Wildcat

To be honest, I’d be happy with those, but if I had to pick another 2:

Shelby Cobra

F40.

If the Veyron was the car worlds “Concorde” the F40 was the EE Lightning
