Strewth, er looking at my Fantasy Garage on here, rather alot..

Am i limited to 100k in total?

If so:

Tuscan / Cerb 20k (with a groovy paint job)
Dodge RAM SRT-10 20k (hopefully within budget) great for lugging the guitars around etc.
Rover MGZT260 + Supercharger Install 16k (for taking my nan to the shops)

This leaves 44k which i would try to find a Lamborghini Countach LP5000s in Black for..
Maybe a little tight on the cash.. so i may have to do a couple of ram-raids in the dodge.

100K is your pocket money as a rule...keep it tidy until they find a huge oil reserve under my house.

Sierra Cosworth RS500
TVR Griffith 4.3 not sure which colour to choose
TVR Cerbera 4.5 in yellow

There was no such car, for sure a 911 Turbo or a 911 Speedster but never a Turbo speedster
