At last, you don’t need to buy a Cayman GT4 to get a flat-six engine. One of the world’s greatest sports cars, this

A brash, addictively brilliant sports car. But is it truly £75,000-worth of ‘brilliant’? Hmm…

VW’s tiniest, cheapest hot hatch has similar horsepower and weight to the original Mk1 Golf GTI. Time to party like it’s 1975

Heavy-handed in its performance and ride quality, but with way more depth and finesse than its predecessor

Less a car, more a sort of mobile shrine to V10 worship. The show-off's super-spyder of choice

As an object lesson in corralling the discordant forces of petrol and electricity, it’s stunning

It’s sublime, a rolling sculpture that stays with you for a very long time afterwards

Ferrari's twin-turbo F8 Spider might be a facelifted 488, but it's still a bloody good supercar

Seat's take on the VW Up & Skoda Citigo is a damn good EV. Though of the three, it's not the one we'd have

It'll be a perfect tool for some, but cheap plastics and an underpowered drivetrain mean it'll never be loved

The third JCW to get the stripped and spoiler treatment is the fastest, most powerful car Mini has ever made, but far from the most fun

The Traction Avant is perhaps the world's most innovative car. Lovely thing to drive, too

A true icon of beauty and technology. Always drive your heroes

A hot hatch that weighs as much as an early Lotus Elise – of course it’s fun. But it’ll always live in the 205 GTI’s shadow

Turns out, the Navigator's baby brother is - when specced correctly - the pick of the Lincoln litter

It's cheap, sure, but the rest of it won't make you run away screaming

Almost everything we like about the Up, but unpretentiously electric. Could be the ideal first EV

It's one of the cheapest electric cars you can buy. And, happily, a good one too

As good as front-driven BMWs get, but arguably not as stylish as its sub-niche requires

A clever bit of engineering wrapped up in a tedious package

Yes, it’s effectively a van with windows. But it’s also magnificent
