A perfectly intact Beaufighter sitting in a fresh water lake, which managed a perfect landing on the frozen surface, and slowly sank to the bottom with minimal damage when the ice melted. In my dreams... :)

A slightly more achievable option though is that extremely forlorn looking Lightning (E.E, not Lockheed) which sits in that yard at the side of the A1 near Newark. If my back garden was big enough to keep it in, I'd love to rescue it.
