Oh, and get drunk a lot! (but not at the same time as clocking up miles!)
Then when I got bored of having nothing but cars, friends, girls and alcohol (maybe that'd take a bit longer than a year or so) I'd go to college and learn mechanics.
After that i'd buy a Unit and some classic cars incl. a Mk1 Golf project and an old Mini project.
Then at least i'd have something to get up for!
No long term plans; probably just enjoy all that until I met…the girl of my dreams… haha, then buy a big house and maybe open a garage or something. Employing people to do the work obviously, i'd be the suit and tie man.
So yeah, that's what i'd do!

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

I agree though! I'd get a rough beaten up old banger (taxed and legal) and park awkwardly, practically blocking in all the idiots who've done it to me over the years… :twisted:yradave said
First thing I'd do is buy a bus and drive round all day not picking anyone up. That'd sort the first few weeks for me. :y:
But I think that'll just be me on that one though. :dontknow:
And go into a city centre nice and early, bag a really good parking space in a desirable spot and sit and read the paper and see how many people roll up and ask me if I'm leaving anytime soon!

get a nice house out of town with a barn to put my golf and the mrs bus in. buy an early mint mk1 gti.
spend a few weeks driving it around england, ireland, scotland and wales taking in all the sights and staying in nice cosy b&b's eating out at nice pubs and eateries sampling as many local beers as possible and having no cares in the world.
go amsterdam for a few days and chill out.
a week somewhere hot with amazing surf with a load of mates then home to spend endless days painting pictures and tinkering with cars/surfing and eating great food and drinking loverly beer.
in this day and age it would just be nice not to worry how safe your job is and if you can afford monster munch or is it going to be no-frills crisps again
my trainers have a big hole in so i would replace those before anything mentioned above
funny this thread popped up as i bought my first lottery ticket this morning in ten years.
