A rocketship. This is Ferrari’s replacement for the 599 GTB and the company has thrown everything at it to ensure it’s vastly quicker than its seminal predecessor, but also that it’s more enjoyable at low speeds. The headlines are that’s it’s considerably smaller (50mm shorter, 60mm lower, 20mm narrower and with a 20mm shorter wheelbase), 70kg lighter at 1525kg (dry), produces more downforce and has a much lower centre-of-gravity. But you’ll need to have exceptionally deep pockets to get into one: it costs from £239,736.

The F12 isn’t just faster than the 599 it replaces, it’s taken a giant performance leap. Despite packing the same power output as a Formula one car, and possessing a brutal turn of pace, it’s more forgiving than you’d think and effortless to drive fast. The mid-engine 458 is still a marginally sharper driving tool, but you could easily drive the F12 everyday and there’s space in the back to for your bags, too. Without doubt, this is the world’s best all-round supercar.
