If I won the Lotto, I'd buy Corgi's, and save the rest.

They make you look like royalty for a good price.

Call me simple but the first thing I would buy would be a BF GT-P in Toxic, every option that is worthwhile and probably a 6spd Auto (would have to try out the manual though). Then I would take the Gecko off the road and do a ground up on it. I would definately have to order that SHM 6L alloy block with beefed up internals and hot heads among other things. Then I can have the GT-P as the daily hack and the Gecko as the weapon, bliss!

I'd spend another $30k on the torana to get it finished and on the road. Then I'd buy a nice new landcruiser or something similar for Dad so I can tow with it and go offroad. I'd buy Mum a new car.

Pay off the parents house, buy the place next door then invest the rest in property and rent those places out.

first thing would be a money making machine to make more money

nah honestly
i'd buy every X series model ride from start to finish
then i'd buy house in the sticks far way from neighbours but within travelling distance to the city by car then a few more things like build my
dirt bike track in the middle of my
speedway track that runs on past my
go kart track that joins onto my own personal
race track the house would be wooden vintage style all rooms opening onto a verandah
with pool running around half the house(rear of house)
would have to be on 1-200hectares of course need room to make a 4wd course too you know ;)
personal vehicles: NEW BF SEDAN to go with my family WAGON AU 347 STROKER on 20's and my own full off road on road PATROL or LANDY on a 4inch body lift with 6 inch lift kit on 34's during the day and off road 37's,with my bike R1 and my dirt bike (yamaha) and you have to own a boat of course..

I would get Red Octobers Monkey a packet of his own ciggies, cause he looks like he's enjoying that one so much, he must have botted it, and as us lepars of society know, it always tastes better if you botted it off somebody else.

I’d invest half a million on booze, drugs and hookers then I’d blow the rest.
