2021 FORD MUSTANG MACH 1
FOR SOME YEARS now, Ford has claimed that the Mustang is the world's best-selling sports car, a description that must irritate folk in Zuffenhausen - but then, Porsche describes its Cayenne as a 'sports car for the whole family? And, after a week living with the latest Mach 1 version of the Mustang, I've started to think that Ford has a point.
'But sports cars are supposed to be compact and nimble!' I hear you cry. Well, consider this stat. The 911 Carrera, the closest in horsepower to a Mustang V8, is about 1.9m wide with mirrors folded out. A Mustang measures 1.92m. Yes, the Mustang is longer and heavier, but it's not the bloated barge many Brits imagine it to be.

Don't judge a book by its cover
TO ASSUME the creation of Hervé Valliet is yet another Lotus Seven imitator would be utterly wrong. A quiet perfectionist and entrepreneur from the Isére region in the French Alps near Grenoble, he has owned numerous sports cars, such as Caterham, Wiesmann, TVR - even a Ronart W152.

The Magic of a Shadow
Even today, when prices for a good Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow have risen to a level vaguely commensurate with their stunning quality, these are still hugely undervalued cars - victims of their own success, because lots of them are still around.
