I'd love it if the salesman turned out to be awesome and you came back having paid £11k, and still didn't have any floor mats.

I'm guessing it's this one.

Would be fantastic if you just turned up, ran up to the desk where they were sorting out the paperwork and shouted WHATEVER HE'S GIVING YOU, I'LL PAY YOU MORE!

I'd definitely do things like that if I won a silly amount on the lottery. Go in, trump his offer, pay in cash, then just go outside and set fire to the car and walk off.

We've had people crash their new cars as they drive away from the showroom in years gone by. One bloke nosed out into the traffic and was hit by a van the once, nearly tore the front off his Brand new Micra!

I appreciate it's only a Micra so he was probably doing the world a favour, but I can't even imagine the sinking feeling you'd get in your stomach when that happened.

I just think things like speedboats and jetskis would get boring very quickly, whereas doing things like that would keep me entertained for years.

Hell, if you wanted to you could even buy the guy a brand new car to say sorry. By the time I'd finished p**sing myself I'd have made the money in interest anyway.

Oh yeah! Owain is proper mad he is! He needs locking up, he's 'crazy'.

I'd do 'crazy' things too like buy you a lambo but fit a micra engine in it and have it resprayed in poo brown, which I know is your favourite colour so the jokes on me , but I dont care, I would still do it.

not really, I wouldnt buy you anything.

Yeah I'm off the chain.

If I won the lottery I'd probably employ Soulman to entertain me in various ways. I quite like his Lambo idea.

"Here, I bought you a lambo. But it's painted in brown using Dulux emulsion and it has a cock painted down the side, enjoy"

I'd love that anyway. Would be funny to drive about in something so expensive and and have it ruined by emulsion paint and cocks. I'd add police lights on the roof and a comedy horn and also adds some flagsto it. I'd smash through bins in it and take it off road and just wreck the f**k out of it. Then really take pride in my Micra and have it on a rotating platform in my garage.

I'd probably employ people to cross roads holding panes of glass, and a guy with a melon stall for me to knock over.

I do, but I'm not sure that's the biggest thing standing between me and my plan.

One year at the boatshow I queued for an age to get a walk round on a Sunseeker 75, there's no way in my lifetime I'm owning or even visiting someone who owns one so the chance of a guided tour was really appealing. So I politely enquired with the pretty lady on the gate if I could be allowed aboard. She paused, looked me up and down, then appeared to think about it, then, looking down her nose at me said in a snooty voice "they are showing prospective buyers around, you will have to wait"
Feeling embarrassed my first though was bugger this I'll be off, but then my belligerent side kicked in and I reminded myself that the sign said I was welcome to have a tour. So, I said "fine, I've got all day" sat down, right ther on the spot and waited for over an hour to get on. Eventually the b**ch poked her head round the corner and said " oh, are you still here? I suppose you can go on now, but don't speak to the clients" as if I wanted to, but by now I was determined to see what this f**king floating cocktail bar was like inside so I swallowed the reply I had forming in my mind and went up the walkway. I was met a top by a friendly smiling lad who introduced himself, asked my name and shook me by the hand, he then proceeded to walk me around the boat, pointing out clever features, answered all my questions and was a knowledgeable and courteous host. (Take note, sales prevention b**ch) I left happy that I'd had a chance to have a small taster of a lifestyle I'm never likely to experience.
I'm waffling now, but the point I'm getting to is that I really, really wish I had the money to be able to walk back down the gangplank, ask to see the c**t at the gates manager and explain to him/her that I liked the product very much, but would unfortunately be placing my order elsewhere because that little cow needs taking down a leg or three.
