I'd rather have had Patsy Kensit.

Mike Oldfield's first car after the success of Tubular Bells was a
quattro.  It's still on the road, owned by a UK club member.  There's
also a car once owned by someone from Pink Floyd, but it was horribly
"restored" and sold a couple of years ago.  The new owner brought
it to Roger and myself for appraisal and we gave him a list - we haven't
seen him since.
