Anyway, we need to move levers and pedals and wheels the components that the car is built from.These move mechanically, and their actions have the capacity to cause us satisfaction and joy. So we asked everyone to name the car with their favourite gearbox, brakes, steering and throttle response, and because we"re not completely backward-looking, to see if they could find fun in paddleshifts, skinny tyres and wings, too.Photography: Mark FagelsonThis feature was originally published in issue 285 of Top Gear magazine.
