Might not be fast and lairy, but it's the embodiment of good automotive design and innovation.

The McLaren F1 has been my all time number 1 for as long as I can remember and I think it always will be, timeless.

Maserati GranTurismo Sport.

What. A. Car.

Its beautiful, sounds amamzing, isn't as common as a Ferrari and the lines are just perfect.

I know it's only a humble Clio, but they're just awesome. You'd be hard pushed to find something more fun!

I recently saw what looked like a 2 door one of these on the back of a trailer. Heading north on the M20 and on French plates, it looked like a barn find tbh. I have no idea on the exact model though. HAd bags of potential to look stunning though.

Lamborghini Countach LP5000 QV. The definition of a supercar (IMHO).

Got to be an Alfa 8C.

It's an Alfa.
It won Grand Prix, Le Man, Millie Miglia and Targe Florio.
It was driven by Birkin and Nuvolari
It was designed by Vittorio Jano
It gave a start to a young team principle called Ferrari
It was clothed by Zagato, Carrozzeria Touring, Carrozzeria Castagna, Pininfarina, Brianza Graber, Worblaufen and Tuscher of Switzerland and Figoni of France.

Nothing else comes close.

I'll take an Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Touring Spider

Actually mine is the Macca F1. Just awesome I was in secondary school at the time and the macca I think was partly responsible for my love of cars.

+1 on that, I'd sacrifice an awful lot just to spend some time having a good look over one..
