I'd like a Hanger sized Holodeck with built in replicator and transporter capability and long lasting power supply so that I could replicate everything I wanted, including shuttles and starships (in parts of course), and if I fancy a couple of cars etc then I've got that as well.

I would either have The Transporter or Holodeck.
Actually, the replicator can make tools, weapons (fully charged) spare parts, and materials in general just as it can foods and beverages.
As a matter of fact, it hasn't been stated on screen what the limitations of replicators are, apart from the fact that if you want to replicate something much more complex, such as a rare resource, it would simply take much more energy.
And even then, it wouldn't remain such a problem indefinitely because over time they would simply figure out how to make those things with smaller amounts of energy, simply increase their power output generators, or just move beyond the need to use the resource in question.
I'll take a replicator with a sufficiently strong and renewable energy source.
That way I'll just fabricate whatever I need in parts, and assemble accordingly.
I'd want the holodeck. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't need anything further.
No... I accidentally posted the same thing twice but you can't delete posts so I changed the second one to explain that I had accidentally made a double post...
Whoosh! (waves flat hand over head)
Not almost, but completely.
In fact, we had the tech to eliminate currency for a few decades now (no, not the replicator) ... society simply doesn't want to do it though.
Something about the premise that everyone could live luxuriously without the need for current misery, problems, diseases and whatnot puts off people and companies in positions of power/control.
