KEITH ADAMS EDITOR

No I wouldn’t buy this F1. I’d buy 10 Ferrari 288 GTOs and actually use one of them to enjoy driving the most desirable of all 1980s supercars.

JAMES SADLIER MANAGING EDITOR

I love McLaren F1s, but I couldn’t spend £10m on any car unless it came with a matching yacht and helicopter. Something for McLaren to think about.

GARVAIS SEYMOUR PRODUCTION EDITOR

Hmm. I’d have to road test it first, see if there’s any smoke at start-up, do an HPI check and assess the panel gaps. Can’t be too careful.

DAVID BROWN ASSOCIATE EDITOR

No, I would invest in a very nice house in the country with a long drive plus plenty of garages to contain a multitude of beautiful BRMs and Volkswagen­s.

DAVID SIMISTER FEATURES EDITOR

No. I’d buy a barn to store 100 classics to enjoy in the real world. Why do 240mph when an MG PA Midget is more fun at a tenth of that?

MURRAY SCULLION ACTING NEWS EDITOR

I’d drive it occasional­ly to Goodwood, and then watch £20m drop into my bank account in 10 years’ time.

CALUM BROWN WEB PRODUCER

What a ridiculous question. I’m Scottish. If I had £10m, I’d buy a house, a distillery, some staff and a herd of classic Land Rovers to pass the time.

LEISE ENRIGHT OFFICE MANAGER

I need a new car for taking the kids to school so yes, I’d buy it. I would then sell my husband to pay for tyres and servicing.
