The Second-Hand Jets You Could Buy For Under £10 Million
If like David Cameron you’re in the market for an aircraft, and have a £10 million budget burning a hole in your pocket, here’s what’s on offer if you shop around.
How about a whole fleet of jets like the one below. Coming in at £787,634 you could have 12 of these with change left over… maybe for a union jack paint job?

The 1981 Dornier Alpha Jet is a light attack jet, although not a huge amount of passenger space with just two seats. The PM would probably need some flying lessons...
For just over half the budget the PM could have this 1998 Falcon 900B. The French built corporate jet aircraft features an S-duct central engine. It has the capacity for 19 passengers and has a cruising speed of 590mph at 36,000ft.

Perhaps you'd like to get your hands on a Sea Harrier? Want to know how, then check out the video below from a retired Lt Col test pilot who bought his very own fighter jet... #lifegoals
Coming in at almost twice the price of 'Cam Force One' is this Boeing BBJ. 12 passenger seats, sleeps eight and only one previous owner. With plenty of room, beds and a sofa, perhaps the Prime Minister could get the other MP’s to chip-in to make up the short fall – there’s certainly room for them on board!

Or if you’re looking for a project, what about this fixer upper? At just £20,000 you would have plenty left over in the budget to do it up. This Tornado was put on Gumtree by aviation enthusiasts Dave Blisset and his wife Lesley, from Lincolnshire. Fair warning, you need to bring your own engine and guns.

Or last but certainly not least you could buy the flying car from Harry Potter. One of the One Direction boys has just bought the Ford Anglia which swooped through the skies in the second Wizarding world blockbuster for an undisclosed six figure sum. You might need to give Ron Weasley a call to work out how to get it off the ground though.
