We see quite a few flash sports cars in the village I live in because we have the closest petrol station to Bedford Autodrome.

I grew up lusting after Aston Martins because one of the Directors of the company lived over the road and had a succession of new and classic ones to use. If we were standing at the bus stop waiting to go into town he'd always stop and give me and my mate Ray a lift. Over the years we were doing that I think we travelled in every major AM model produced since 1960, and a few rarities. The village was also on the Aston Martin test route where they took all new cars and prospective buyers - Newport Pagnell, where they're built, is about 8 miles away from there.

The R8 looks good by itself but get it parked next to a real supercar and it just looks dull and out of place.

It just doesn't look like a supercar. I certainly wouldn't have one over a Ferrari (although only if I get to pick the Ferrari, F40 for me )

Don't get me wrong, I'd have an R8 but I'd be thinking of something prettier.

Oh yes, I'd have an m12.

My dream supercar isn't a modern one though, I want a GT40
