Top Gear Beauty Parade (2014.017)

This week's WBC theme is "beauty". This little lot was assembled by the Top Gear crew as part of their beauty parade. The hosts (in the background) then tried to argue which of the cars they would have as their only car. Interesting (yet utterly useless) debate that continued in our car on the way home.

Cars are very definitely one case where beauty is in the eye of the beholder. One man's meat being another man's poison. And none of the hosts chose their car purely on its aesthetics either.

In my view, the most beautiful are probably the one at each end (Aston V12 Vantage and Ferrari 458), the blue one in the middle (Lexus LF-A) is the one I'd most want to drive, and the white one next to that (Mercedes SLS Black) the one I'd choose to own.

Oh, and we can probably all agree, that none of the men in the background could possibly count as being on-theme for this week!
