Some of the supercars and stars from the Dubai Motor Show

One third of the 'Holy Trinity', Porsche's hybrid hypercar proves that a classy design ages very well indeed. Bravo.

Don't see these very often, right? This one's been tuned by Fab Design, because of course.

Remember this? Clamshell-roofed supercar gets a home motor show spot. It's built in Dubai, after all, and gets a Nissan V6. Nice.

Need we say any more about this car?

Still got a soft-spot for the big-hearted, gullwinged Merc SLS.

Pista means track. The 488 Pista is exceptional on a track, yes, but can it do the daily grind? We found out, here.

Been a while since we've seen the gorgeous One-77. And with 77 built in total, will probably be a while before we see one again.

This is a simply marvellous Chinese limousine and we're having zero arguments about that. 

It's a very big, really very armoured car.

This too, has been armoured. INKAS told TG they strip the interior and retrofit all the armouring, so there's no visual cues as to its capability. Apart from the really bloody heavy doors, which you won't be able to blow off. Arf arf!

Now for a little change of... um, pace. Jag's electric SUV gets a prime spot on the Dubai show floor...

... as does the new LR Defender.

We're not saying it. Nope. Nothing at all.

The new mid-engined 'Vette got a Middle Eastern debut, in this fetching colour combo. You lot still 50/50 on the looks?

Now for something a little older... and so, so very cool. Oof.

Another entry from Maranello, here. V12s FTW.

Million dollar question here: classic old Countach, or...

... lairy new Aventador?

Ah, nice and subtle from Brabus, as always.

And last, but definitely not least, the 812. So 'not least', in fact. This thing is terrifyingly quick.
