THAT is a really tough, tough call. If money was no object, I could easily think of a few cars I would like to own, but this one intrigues me the most. I love the look. It is not a Ferrari, but it will show nicely, thank you!

Seen as how Art has nicked my current favourite production car I'm going with this:
Eagle Speedster - a bespoke build, £700k+ sports car styled to evoke the classic E-Type.

Robin,
A truly worthy choice, but I don't wish to nick your first choice. I will conceded the DB11 to you. I would be just as happy in a Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible....

When money is no object, why be fussy.
Mind you, I like the design of the Jaguar F-Type a lot as well, another sweet, sweet ride.

I do like a Bentley though I might well buy a Rolls if I won the Lotto for no other reason than its so ostentatious its actually quite cool.
Day to day I would drive a range Rover as I have always loved them - not god forbid a Sport - a proper RR with its imperial driving position and split tailgate. To be honest there would be very little on the market as a daily driver that would tempt me away from this.
When I wanted a dirty weekend away with the missus assuming she managed to pry me out of the Range Rover then a little two seater would need to be in the garage.
As Art has nicked the F-Type and the Eagle I have above doesn't come with a roof (which might be a little limiting) I'll go with another car I have loved since birth - a 1954 300 SL Gull-Wing
I do have secret desire, something I'd tuck away in the corner of the garage for when middle-age spread gets the upper hand and I want to be a little silly.
Something for a Saturday night blast through the city with music blaring - a Fiat 500 Abarth

All these dream cars and I must be a simple minded guy since I was a kid a Chevy truck was always my dream car and still is. Here is my baby washed and waxed but I have this stuff on the wind scoop I can't get off a friend is bringing me some special formula plastic/rubber cleaner to remove it.

These are some examples of shots i did for our car club at a road cruise event. Ist time I did something like this. Had to do a lot of post processing as the back ground was filled with a lot of grimble and a dull, cloudless sky. Ramped up on my PSE learning as I used layers, etc. Added the greenery and lake, cloned out power lines and lamp posts. Used my 18-55 kit lens, f/9 at 1/200 sec, ISO 100. D 7100

My DREAM GARAGE
If money was no object, these are just some of the vehicles I would love to have in the Stable for occasional driving.... in NO specific order.
The new Miata MX5. I used to have one of these in an older version and I still love the car. The new one is sweet!!

I want to ADD ONE last vehicle to my STABLE that would TRULY put a smile on my face for a very, very long time.
It is a BUS!
But, a Touring Bus like no other. I would start at one end of North America and travel top to bottom, end to end as far as the roads would take me, while I still could.
Check it out. I am sure I have posted some link to this some time before. Arlon's post reminded me!
This is the ULTIMATE Motorhome!
