O.k that's why :mrgreen:

The Zagato did really steal my heart 20 years ago but I like Aston's a lot in general :wink:

But i never understood why they let Zagato style that car.

It hits like plyers on a pig. As a dick in a cup of porridge!

True, they work well in black, dark blue, dark red and even my favourite, bright red.

Still in doubt: Super 7 or the ultimate driving machines from Radical...
(and the good news: Radical is working on cars that can also have German or Dutch license plates :D !)

Like for example this one:

Probably Van der Kooi Sportscar from Lochem (or Amsterdam)?

BTW: They haven't put this one the site next to the Lotus, Noble and Caterhams.

This leaves the question as to the definition of 'best'. What is the best British 'toy' car? I think the Radical and its ilk certainly qualify. What is the best British 'fun' car likewise. But they are not 'the' best British car by a long shot.

True, as that is very different probably. To me, a car is about fun, hence my choice.

Not wanting to stir up any trouble but I believe the best British car has already been identified in this thread:

For those who still need convincing I give you this:

You see? Unbelievably cool and yet still classy enough for you to pop to McDonalds when you're on a date :D

What more could a man ask for? Did I forget to mention that McDonalds has become increasingly important now that we are a nation of chavs? :wink:
