    Back then: Aston Martin AMV8 (The original one)
    Back now: Probably the Tuscan or the Elise.

    Here is the most beautiful of the E-Types IMO. Un-ruined by its re-styles over the years.

    A S1 2-Seater Coupe. It would be better in British Racing Green.









    You need it with a 3.8 litre engine and manual 'box.

    Nice pics but I have to disagree, E-types HAVE to be red
    Green was for the tweed jacket and wellies brigade. Red was for a real man !!!

    To be quite honest, being an E-Type, it looks stunning in any colour.
