So I got what the prizes are for my latest pre paid lottery, $40,000 cash, a RAV4 Hybrid or a BMW 18i

The driver in me wants the BMW, but the greeny in me wants the hybrid.

If the one in a million happens, what do I do?

Yes I know some of you would take the money and do something else with it, but I think I'd go for one of the cars.

when you drive either of the cars out the showroom they are worth 10% less there and .and the value will keep going down.
the cash will be worth the same ,pity about the crap interest

I'd take $20 grand and a one year old Beemer
Naaa , I'd take 20 grand and a perfect , only driven on road Landcruiser .

Sell it and spend a third on hookers, a third on booze and drugs,. Then waste the rest.

Get the beamer. Then put solar panels on your house to offset the slightly increased carbon footprint

Take the cash and buy windsurf kit and a cheap van

Cash and buy a 2-year old version of the Beamer.

Well a hybrid is the worst of both worlds so scrub that one for a start, either go full EV or full internal combustion engine.

Don't know much about Beamers but I agree get a 2 year old car over the new one, and avoid any of the modern diesels, DPFs are bad news.

Get a hybrid and some attitude
