Though Pistonheads' favourite also launched that year:

Across the pond is good In fact, cars or bikes from any corner of the planet should be considered

Not strictly a car (actually its not a car in any way, shape or form!)

1992

Honda NR750, carbon fibre, oval pistoned goodness.

I've ridden one of those...from the Honda UK HQ - in Power Road, Chiswick. But that's another story...

I was born in 1972 - and I see we haven't had one of these yet. It's not an exotic 'as such' but there's something so honest, so beautifully resolved, so pretty and yet shouldn't really be, based on a rather boring family car. But, I love them SO MUCH. If I get a lottery win, I will be having one:

Mark One Escort, in either Mexico or RS 1600 flavours:

The AVO RS2000 is the one car I really regret selling back in the day. Modena Green with stripes, custom pack trim and original Webasto. Idiot

Ans of course, for the Northern gent who didn't wish to appear to be a highly sophisticated Southerner there was:

Ladies and gentlemen, direct from 1968 I give you the Ferrari 365 GTB/4...

1992 wasn't such a bad year
