Welcome to the second edition of Oppo Dream Garages With Chris ! In this round, parking will be limited, as you can probably tell based on the title. Full requirements/restrictions are as follows:

The total amount of money alloted for this round is $650,000.

You will have only three garage bays to use, and the you cannot use the driveway as "overflow" parking.

There are no performance restrictions for this round; cars can be of any power or speed.

So, with those things in mind, what cars would you fill your Oppo Dream Garage with?

Very fine choices, especially fitting a supercharger onto the R8. Well done.

You're going older with your picks, I see. Like Matthew McConaughey said in the Lincoln MKC commercial, I can respect that.

Luckily for you, I didn't put a size restriction. That would've been too complicated anyway, though.

are Singers known for breaking down? I always thought most 911's are fairly reliable.

It might be a little more interesting with a lower price cap because pretty much anything is on-limits as-is. But with a $650,000 budget, I'd go:

C8 Aileron

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

S63 AMG, for, ya know, practicality.

$650k = £425k

1. Audi RS6 Avant - £77,000 - For practicality, obviously.

2. Military-spec Unimog 5000 series twincab flatbed - £80,000 - Because the countryside needs to be taught a lesson.

3. Aston Martin Vanquish Volante - £200,000 -Because

All in all; £357k and a big smile on my face every morning when I open the garage door

Lister Bell STR for stage rally

1. ATS-V Sedan, 6MT, not sure about options but likely this dark colour or electric blue or a bright red, likely wouldn't stay stock, probably around $80k.

2. GMC Sierra 2500HD All Terrain Duramax, mild lift (3inch), decent tires, some mods (tune), total should be less than $100k.

3. 2015 Nissan GTR Black edition (don't see the NISMO on the Canadian website), in gun metal, $120k. Drive it, track it, modify as needed once my skills match the car.

No no, all of these are to get to my secret lair in a Volcano large farm in the boonies.

Ya, I think I covered everything

Ariel- Summer DD, twisty track toy, summer cross country road trip toy

Ram- Snow, off roading, toy, hauler, truck stuff

Hellcat- DD, straight track toy, cannonball run toy

Oh yeah, I am going to need a trailer but I can put the Ariel or Hellcat in it when they aren't being used. So 3 spots good.

Audi RS7

Ford SVT Raptor

Porsche 911 GT3 RS

$35,000- 2013 Ram 2500, diesel, manual, 4x4, locking diff., lifted, beadlocks, A/T tires, all of the torques.

Excuse me what no it's gorgeous.

And it's a whole load more spacious than the CLA, because no idiotic sloping roofline.

Good Lord, three parking spaces is a massive luxury!

1) Tesla Model S P85D. Quiet, clean and very, very quick. Good for cruising around the city on errands, while reducing the urban heat island effect. (Geographers will know what I'm on about.

2) Spyker C8 Aileron. This is for doing my Knightsbridge-esque cruising.

3) Original Mini. You said urban, you got a proper urban runabout.
