You know what I'm talking about... the fantasy garage you have in your mind where you store your 10 favourite vehicles of all time, that you promise when you win lotto you will go out and buy them all, and be happy for the rest of your life... What's in yours? Mine, in order of preference, are (excuse the cages):

1. Ariel Atom - Extremely simple, extremely fast, absolutely perfect.

2. Ferrari F430 - Farking beautiful

3. Aprilia RSV-R - Ditto

4. Porsche 944 - The only affordable car on my list, at about $15,000 for a pristine example. I love the styling (although it may be an acquired taste?) and having driven a 924, I can only imagine how well it must handle... mmm...

5. Chrysler 300C - Well, up until the other day the 300C would have been in this spot, because it is the only big car I would ever buy as it is beautiful and sounds awesome. However, it was voted Gay Car of the Year 2005 in Australia, so it is forever banished to the dungeons of my Fantasy Scrapheap. I can't think of anything to replace it with quite yet.

6. Mugen CBR1000RR - Have you seen this thing (http://www.ibike.com.hk/01_bike_report/local/honda/05_cbr1000rr_mugen/m02.jpg)? Wow.

7. Koenigsegg CC - Bloody fast, and while not terribly sexy, it is a rather more obscure supercar, which makes it cool.

8. Jaguar XJ220 - It is a cornerstone in the supercar revolution. Set a benchmark for all future high performance cars.

9. Suzuki GSF1200 Bandit- Because naked sportsbikes are cool

10. Toyota Motor Triathlon Race Car - or the MTRC - click here (http://www.wallpaper.net.au/wallpaper/automotive/Toyota%20MTRC%20Concept%202%20-%20800x600.jpg) to see what I'm on about.

Well I guess I'm obligated to back up my GN250 choice.

They're perfect.

The design of the bike hasn't changed much, if at all in like 20 years. The bike is designed to be a cheap, sturdy commuter bike, and that is exactly what it does. For that reason I'd keep one just in case I trashed all the others.

The GN250... does exactly what it says on the tin.

I just don't understand why, when you're limited to only 10 fantasy toys, you'ld waste a spot on a GN?

Hence why I didn't waste any spots on women, chicks come and go, and you get bored with them quicker.:msn-wink:

Narrowing it down to 10 is hard enough, not a show of putting them in order so I'll categorise into 2 and 4-wheels. I'm going to exclude the 2-legged rides, cos I wouldn't keep them in the garage..

2-wheels
Lambretta SX200
Lambretta GP w/TS1 250cc motor
Rudge TT Special
Triumph Thruxton
One of them matt-black Exile customs

4-wheels
Aston Martin Vantage
SWB MK3 Landrover
1970's Porsche 911
Audi RS6
Caterham Super7

2)....1964 Leyland Hippo,680 engine and 6speed/2 speed

3)...1964 Foden 6x4 with Foden 2 stroke engine and epicylic gearbox.

4)....Some sort of American bonneted truck with twin stick.

5)....Austin Sheerline.

6)...Rickman Metisse,I'd like a T100C motor for the lighter weight and more aggressive feel,but I'd try a few other motors and maybe settle on something else to power it.

7)... Honda RS750

8)...XR750 Harley....there would be a half mile dirt oval out the back to use these two bikes on,plus a number of other bikes I'll have not on the list....I'll also lose 20 yrs of age at the same time to give me the ability to ride them.

9)...W650,set up as a dual purpose/streettracker - this will be the bike with which I ride every road in New Zealand,my mission if I had no money/time worries.

10)....First prodution Norton Commando,colour to be decided.

In no order at all because if I won lotto I'd buy them all at once

* 3 minibikes - for the kids
* Indian Spirit or Scout for Strayjuliet
* BMW F650GS Dakar for adventure touring
* BMW R100CS
* Gixxer 1000 streetfighter to prowl down Victoria St and laugh at the Boi Racers in their wanked out cages and annoy the Revenue Collectors by riding a blatant Ticket Magnet strictly according to the law
* WWII BMW R75 with sidecar and machinegun (with my lotto winnings I could buy the references for the "C" licence)
* Suzuki DR250 for commuting to work
* relaible and economical 8-seat "people mover" - who cares what make and model, it's just a fucking cage that'll fit the whole family and the groceries
* 1970s Mini for Strayjuliet though why she'd want one if she had the Indian I have no idea
* Fully restored VW Kombi because, as Lias keeps pointing out, I'm just a fucking tree-hugging hippy :devil2:

Have you been taking your medication?
Nah, I've gotta agree with Weasel, the GN250 is not much but they're cheap, fairly basic and economical - you going to ride 10-15 mins at 50km/h (if the traffic lets you go that fast) and sit for ages at lights to and from work 5 days a week on a 4-cyl litre bike if you've got room in the garage for a cheap "work hack"? Me, if I had the money for a fleet, I'd be fucked if I'd waste a good tourer on commuting.

My choice of commuter would be a 250cc road-trail like the DR or a Honda XR/XL but the GN is a good commuter - it's not really designed for anything else but WTF, that's why you have the other bikes parked in the gargre.

The GN250 belongs in the Fantasy Yet Totally Practical Garage, along with:

1. 1985 Honda Civic - One elderly lady owner, 15,000kms, recently serviced, only used to go to the supermarket next door on Sundays

2. 1990 Toyota Hilux - 2.0 litre diesel, no wof/rego, used only for getting around the farm.

3. Ford Transit Van - The fastest thing on 4 wheels: no matter where you are, or what you're driving, there is always one right up your arse, waiting for a passing lane.

4. Trusty Pushbike - 15 years old, 3 speed, low performance.

I don't know about you, but if my garage was full of those I would NOT be a happy chappy!

My ideal garage has a special guy in it.

Vintage 1946-1952 model, single cylinder, keen to adapt to V-twin configuration. Bald tyres, loose nuts, tight chain all OK - but the bike doesn't smoke and neither does he. Goes well when oiled up.
