1 million straight to my parents before I have even spent a penny of it. I'd love to be able to do that one day 
The rest would be 1.5 - 2 million in the bank and 1 - 1.5 million on a house (no more than 750k on the house), holidays, cars, motorbikes and what was left after my intial spend would be put in a sperate account for luxury spending in future so I didn't go fluttering away what was in the bank for investment and childrens inheritance etc.

Course, if you want to use your wonga to build a games/guest annex, the above is irrelevant...

I'd buy and crash as many Vauxhauls as possible
I'd love to buy concours cars and smash them up too, in front of the owners, holding the cash obviously
Alternatively buy a fast bike and give the cash to charity as I won't be round long enough to enjoy it!

And if I won 4mil then I certainly wouldn't be having any! I don't think I would be able to conceive after the battering my insides would get from my year long celebration bender

I would buy a Caterpillar D8 Bulldozer and paint the blade in like a Union jack (flag) and hope the French had another lorry strike hahahahahahahaaha!!
I would also buy one of the 2nd had challenger tanks and create mayhem on my new rather large field
Then the usual nice pad, assortment of exotic cars and a honking great big sunseeker motor yacht and a seadoo jetski, and i would like one of those kites you sit under and float about off cliffs on, and a go kart with a jet engine would be cool

A million on illicit pills,
½ a mill’ on guns, rocket launchers, and nitro triggered flares
a stuffed saber tooth tiger
a barrel of Rennies
enough ****** to last out the few years I would be alive for
an article in Rolling Stone on dangerous lifestyles
a contract hit on George W
and the finest collection of brass rubbings known to Fred Dibner
