Geneva. Seat of the original League of Nations, home to the United Nations and base for dozens of organisations working for a greener tomorrow.
And right now, it is also home to a load of scantily clad ladyfolk luring bedazzled and sweaty auto-enthusiasts into the charms of Cars.
Yes, it's motor show time, and it's a big ’un. Lamborghini, as always, stole the show with the new Aventador, but Alfa threatened a David-and-Goliath-shaped upset with its diminutive 4C concept - arguably one of the standouts.

Bentley Continental SS Convertible Ice Speed Record

Weismann Spyder
The ice-cold Weismann Spyder pinches the V8 from the M3 and sticks it in a body weighing roughly 1,000kg, meaning a top speed hovering around 175mph and a close relationship with your heart surgeon.
Bertone B99
This is how Bertone reckons a Jag should look, fusing elements of the old XJ into a two-door body. Good effort, we say.
Citroen Metropolis
This hybrid beasty was styled in Citroen's Shanghai studio and is huuuuge - at 5.3m, it's longer than a LWB Audi A8.
Abarth 695 Tributo
180bhp from a spanked 1.4-litre engine and a shouty exhaust looks promising, with body gubbins inspired by Ferrari. Costs nearly 30k, since you're asking.
