    Spend the £15k on high class hookers, drugs, booze and wild parties. Then just squander the rest.

        Assuming here that you don't actually need either: I'd suggest an old Ferrari 348 GTB.

          Seriously, conservatories are a waste of money in my opinion. They're far too hot in summer, way too cold in the winter. Build a "proper" extension if you want more space in the house.

            Good idea that.

              Wouldn't he need 15k every year to keep it going? An 80's 911 would be a better investment.
              Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                Buy 15k worth of gold - & the real stuff not paper 'rights'

                You have no idea how useful it will be in the coming years

                HTH

                    Ouch, no no no! Old 911? Nah, too hairdresser, too much looks like 'tried but failed'.

                    You're not going to drive it too far. Think conservatory: it's just to stand about and look pretty. Turn the engine over and get the oil flowing with a run to Church and back on a Sunday morning*. Then wash and wax it. It really is good for you to do such to something exotic on a Sunday after lunch.


                    * The gear box on one these is a bit of a bugger on a cold morning. The rest though is actually pretty good and reliable actually, and what with a tame mechanic, really not as expensive as you'd think.
