Mercedes Roadster 'sexiest car'

The sexiest car for a lady to be seen in is a vintage Mercedes SL Roadster, famed for its appearance in High Society being driven by screen siren Grace Kelly.

That is according to a poll out today of the top ten cars to turn men's heads by Evecars.com.

The top ten features a mix of modern, high-performance racers, refined and classy vehicles from years gone by and old-school 4x4s.

"The vintage Mercedes SL Roadster is undeniably a beautiful car, which oozes style and class. Buying one isn't cheap, but proves the owner appreciates the finer things in life," commented Alex Jenner-Fust, editor of Evecars.

"The men we polled love the idea of a woman at the wheel of a high-performance car, but only if she knows how to handle it.

"That's why the idea of a Land Rover Defender driven by the Queen is far more appealing than a modern Mercedes convertible being driven, or crashed, by the likes of Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears."
