If we gave each of our presenters, and you at home, three choices with an uncapped budget on each, the tendency would be to veer towards astronomically expensive hypercars or ultra-rare classics. So in the name of variety, we devised a plan: three cars, three categories, each designed to focus the mind in a different way.
