Greatest Ever Sports Car

 Question: what’s the odd one out in this list? Sports cars, vodka Martini, beautiful women, stamp collecting, James Bond. You’re right if you say that alcohol and cars just don’t mix. But the subject of this edition of The Greatest Ever is really for people with something of a sophisticated lifestyle. Our experts have sought out ten vehicles that define the term ‘sports car’. They outdo each with extravagent design, speed and price, but say you didn’t have to worry about the latter, which car would you choose to take for a spin on a Sunday afternoon?
