Question What's in your Dream garage

1st off i want to make clear that i will
(even if i win the lotto) NEVER sell
my Bug. It's means the world to me


A Splitty so i can enjoy owning one
with 60's music being the only tunes
being played on an old 8-Trac << think that's right
head unit, and one that looks like it was made in the 60's





A Moke as my favourite ever TV programme
is still The Prisoner, if it's good enough
for Patrick McGoohan it's good enough for me
(P.S. Any of my good friends in the U.S. not seen
The Prisoner starring Patrick McGoohan, it was
made in the 60's and if you watch it you'll realise
i'm not Mad but in the world of The Prisoner)






2 Bubble cars as i may need to go shopping
with the wife (Hey, it does say dream )




Ford Shelby mustang 500 even before it was on
Fast & the Furious has this been a dream car for
me




My all time favourite ever car that i'd be happy to use on just weekends:
The T Bucket




Orange Hummer, so i can hold up traffic in
country lanes as i leave home for a night
out in london and not have to put up with
Porsche Carrera 4x4's or 4X4 Mercs thinking
they own the road



A Jetpack as there now available to buy for $40,000

(I've been watching their progress closely and they
do actually work now )




Lets be honest here, if you had a dream garage
would you actually have time for a pedal bike ??
Maybe a Schwinn 9ft long LTD Edition Spoiler bike
i sold it, too many hills

But if were talking bikes with an engine there is
only one



Well that's it But don't forget
my Bug i have now, just reminding ya'll

I would love a 2007 3 series BMW hardtop convertible or a 2008 Ford Mustang California Special. An ex boyfriend had a 1968 cal special and that thing was sweet. He gave me my 66 mustang I still own.

First of all, i'd want a garage to house all these cars and at least one bay with a hydralic lift to work on em. Second, I'm not getting rid of 'Cup so she'll be the first car of the stable. Now the dream garage would consist of.

'09 Camaro Convertable- my next car purchase.
Chev Avalanche...Gotta have a truck for my parts run
'66 beetle
VW bus
Old School bug convertable
Type III Notchback
C6 convertable
1951 Chevrolet 3100 pickup
DeTomaso Pantera GTS
Dodge Charger- the new versions
A harley bagger
Custom built chopper kit.

These are some potential goals for me. Maybe one day i will have them. I try not to have unrealistic goals. These are obtainable in my future if i stay focused. I want my dreams to become reality, so not to put down other posts, but this is my modest selection today.
I want a Herbie or Herbie themed Type1



I want a Mk1 Jetta and once the Bug is paid off, i'm looking. So...ballpark figure 4 years from now.



2008 or later Jetta Sport Wagon (as of last week). In case i end up breeding someday. I saw one at the dealer the other day and i got the trading/post card of it there. Total Euro hotness.

Well not too long ago a NB and an Audi were a dream or 2 away. After nearly 10 years both are in my garage currently. The NB is my baby and the Audi A4 is my hubby's but my name is on the title so I can claim ownership I drive it sometimes.

Other cars in on the Dream List include (and in no particular order):

BMW 335i


BMW 760il


GTM


Bentley Continental GT


Lamborghini Murcielago


Saturn Outlook (to haul toys)


1969 Dodge Dart GT - track toy


Land Rover LR3 - I just love how they look


Mercedes SLK - sex on wheels


Italdesign Nazca C2


Luxury RV for travelling - and a place to keep BeBe safe while traveling
