I have done a few of these already, but if I hadn't already, they would be a must!
1. do some crazy rwd antics in front of the plod and the rush hour and get away with it 2. win the semsec championship at lydden 3. Pull up at your local hang out in a wet dream motor and get all the attention 3. get in the guiness book of records for doing something car related 4. build a q-car 5. build a custom workshop that you could eat your dinner off the floor (not that you'd want to) 6. learn how to ride a quick bike and learn some tricks 7. live on an airfield 8. do a banger race 9. experience stunt driving for a year or two 10. bang jakki degg on the rear seat of any motor and be on the front page of the sun for doing so, legend!

Shag a model on the back seat (check) ;D It's 07:42 and I've left one wrapped up in my duvet....And I'm on here. Some people would call that foolish. Anyhoo: 1: Shout at the DVLA enough that they actually give me my provisional (long...long story) and get my full licence shortly thereafter. 2: Lap the 'ring in under 7:30 3: Drive the length of the American continent (north-south) 4: Build that Ducati-powered Polo I keep wittering on about. 5: Have my own garage/workshop, fully-equipped (including hub-mounted dynometer) 6: Own a road-legal rallycross supercar (sub 2 second 0-60? yes please!) - must have unassuming bodyshell...poverty spec Astra Belmont or similar. 7: Have a 1600cc Turbo'd Radical for occasional on-track shenanigans. 8: I've wanted to do this for years: buy a large amount of land and build a sprint/hillclimb track or buy a mountain in the highlands and build a *proper* hillclimb 9: build an excessive amount of Q-cars. 10: kill Bernie Ecclestone. *n

Top grammar tips! Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

1) Build my dream car - which is in progress! 2) get my bug to the states and joing the 200mph club out at the salt flats. 3) obliterate a 'supercar' from the lights or on a m-way in my bug 3) own a motorsport team. 4) build the V8 powered vw squareback race car that i have in mind. 5) build a '55 Ford F100 pickup 6) build a track car (prob porsche 914 or 356 or 911) 7) win a trophy 8) get a Duacti 998 and ride some traks - especially the 'ring! 9) at some point in the year they have a race in Oz - its the champ cars supported by V8 supercars and top fuel drag racing etc. I seem to remember it was on streets, but I'm not too confident on that. Anyway - i want to go to that event someday!!! 10) get a lotus sunbeam and go rallying.

1) Buy all the cars I've ever liked. 2) Buy a house with garge/land big enough to keep them all. 3) Have workshop at big enough house for all the cars, complete with lift and pit (yeah I know greedy) 4) Do a Gumball in a classic. 5) Do coast to coast in the US in a Dodge Charger. 6) Do a charity Lands end to John o'Groats in something very visible, loud and crazy. 7) Give a 1960's S-Type jaguar a supercharged lump, and full on pimp treatment to the outside. Teach kids what real bling is. 8) Build a real hotrod from the ground up. 9) Do a track day (yep sad I know). 10) Win an illegal midnight drag race.

1) Completely lose control of your car but still manage to bring it back without crashing. (If your mates are in it and don't realise that you've lost it then extra points.) 2) Restore a car. 3) Buy a car that you can't afford, don't need, and that your wife/partner/family doesn't know about until it turns up on the drive. Why? Because you always wanted one. 4) Own a car that you used to drool over when you were 10 years old. 5) Take part in a race/rally. Preferably in a sub-£100 car, preferably over more than 2 countries. 6) Get a car featured in a magazine/TV show. (Preferably not Scrapheap Challenge.) 7) Be involved in a police chase. 9) Do 200mph. (Or if you own an Imp 100mph ) 10) Think of another 10 things to do once you've done all the above.

1) Race & be competitive in some form of club motorsport series. 2) Take Eu' Rouge at Spa flat without lifting 3) Go on an aimless random road trip around Europe taking classic roads & mountain passes aswell as famous cities/towns and race tracks 4) Obviously do the 'Ring' 5) Build a ground breaking car that alters people's opinions i.e a Touring car spec VX Nova 6) Drive a genuine supercar or exotic on the road - just spend a day driving about exploring the car's limits and spend the evening 'lording' it up checking out if owning such a car enhances your pulling potential ;D 7) To own an early 911 (obviously preferably a 2.7 RS) 8) To be a better driver than I am now (not hard ) And be able to be completely confident at push a car to and beyond its limits at will - including being able to feel exactly what the car is doing beneath me & react accordingly. 9) To completely inhalate [Sp?] A very fast & flash road car (Ferrari or Porsche etc) In something very unassuming and descrete that I had built - like my Derby with a turbo'd G40 engine ;D 10) Can't think of anymore at the moment

Just cos something is good for you doesn't mean its good for everyone - for example Marmite does not make good Dog Food.
