Best car you have ever driven and why?

Not the best thing to post on here, true or not.
 
The best I have owned is my current Clio 182. A 2 litre engine in a car of that size certainly shifts.

But the best I have ever driven is without a doubt an Aston Martin DB9. Amazing power and a thing of pure beauty.
 
Given my previous job I have had the pleasure of driving some rather nice cars in my time, and driving them like I had stolen them too which was always nice. I worked for an experience day company wwwe.experiencemad.co.uk.

For speed it would have to be a WRX Impreza which had been tuned to the nuts, 0-60 in just over 4 seconds.

For nostalgia and dream come true value an M3 around Brands Hatch, I have wanted to drive around there since I was knee high to a grasshopper. The M3 was nice to drive but I'd have been over the moon about driving a skoda around Brands. I love the place as it holds so many special memories to me.

I drove a Caterham 7 with a welded differential which was awesome, had great fun drifting in that and doing donuts.

But for me, the most fun and best experience I have had driving in a car would have to be a Vauxhall Astra, everything ripped out of it, roll cage in and allowed to rag the granny out of it on a rally track in Oxfordshire with the rain coming in sideways. Brilliant fun and would choose doing that again over driving any Ferrari or Lambo.

Toss up between an absolutely immaculate Ferrari Dino with less than 20,000 miles on it or a black Ferrari 430 Spider.

They both belonged to the same person who generously let me drive them both on a trip down to Monaco for the Classic GP 2 years ago.

Fastest I have driven was 184 in a friends SL55 AMG (at Bruntingthorpe) which was impressive
 
Best car i have drivenwas probably a BMW M3 around brands hatch.

most fu has to be my current car, 2007 Mitsubishi colt 1.5 turbo, ive spent way to much money on it but its a hobby, its now at 260bhp over the factory 150and weighs arond 950kg rather than the factory 1100kg, far from praticle with no rear seats and super stiff suspension but its fun!
