That Me 262 is so neat ... oh to have that sort of money.

Doesn't Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden collect military tanks?

I used to live in Brixton in Sarf London. A neighbour often had a Scimitar light tank parked outside. It looked quite nippy. It might even escape the kengestion charge if it has 7 seats inside.

Living in Brixton he probably needed one. Still, if you're worried about parking, you can pick yourself up a T-34 for about £10k: Red Army's war-winning weapons are up for sale

Does that fellow do the 262 with the optional 20mm cannons? If not, I'm not interested.

I'd rather have one of these...



Only £4.5 Million to buy and about £450k a year to maintain...

Once you've bought it you also need to recon on spending 300k UKP to keep it running each year.

Of course you could crew it yourself, but that's being a bit stingy innit.

She hasn't told him because he is crap with money and used to have a drug problem, and he would blow the lot within a short period of time.

If it was the other way around he would be a low-life, good for nothing piece of scum no doubt

You seem to know a lot about this, sure you haven't got £1.5m in the bank and a druggie husband?

I read about some bloke in the States making fully flyable Me262 replicas. How about one of those? Might attract a few admiring looks at the local aerodrome.

Looks the business - don't think Farnborough would be too happy if I buzzed the runway!

5 Live were talking about the lotto this morning - does money bring you happiness etc. Anyway one woman rang in who won 1.5 million and she has never told anyone, not even her husband ! Just think some poor bloke is fighting his way through traffic every morning to earl a living and his wife is sat on 1.5 million - it could be one of you.

But then again would you tell your other half if you won that much ?

Anything from £500,000 for an older model (1977) to £3m for a 55 depending on avionics.

Perhaps an older Citation would be a little cheaper!

However, is there happiness in blowing £8.7m in a year and having £1m left in investments?

How the hell do you blow £8.7m? I mean, I would buy a LearJet of course and pay for training but the interest alone on the capital and a rental option should pay for the fuel and op costs.

All I remember is seeing the guy drive around his backyard with his chav mates getting pissed.

How much does a Lear Jet cost?

Btw, don't forget you'll need a safety pilot...

[hyperD]

But then again perhaps there is something in the womans mindset that delights in depriving a man of his pleasures, dont you think?

You mean like grabbing your gonads prior to the vinegar strokes?

I prefer the feminine abstract.

It may be Poetic license, but its how I like to express myself.

You see Gentlemen how quick the Ladies are to deny us even the simple pleasures of expressing ourselves ?
