Description
The ever-changing nature of the sports car is reviewed in this book, based on authoritative contemporary road tests published in the weekly journal Autocar.
The cars have been selected to represent a cross section, from the traditional MG TC Midget of the late 1940s to the Lotus Esprit Turbo of the 1980s. They range from models produced by tiny specialist companies to those made with the mass-produced components of major manufacturers; from spartan wind-in-the-hair machines to svelte modern cars.
The text of each contemporary road test has been retained, together with the accurate performance data recorded when the model was new; these are supplemented by freshly-written comments designed to place the model in perspective.
