May 29, 2023 Why we would (mostly) choose sports cars over supercars #163
Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel discuss sports cars and why they would normally choose to drive one over a supercar. They may be less powerful, less exotic and less valuable, but they are so often more enjoyable to drive on the road. Dan and Andrew also have news of a pair of new British sports cars in the Caterham EV Seven and Aston Martin DB12.
