Greatest F1 cars of all time

Sorry if this has been discussed before, but what are your favourite F1 cars (from any era).
Remember this is a discussion of the cars themselves and not necessarily the people who drove them.

Here are some of mine:

Williams FW14 - love the colour scheme

McLaren MP4 - Last of the "turbo" era

Ferrari 412 - Last of the V12s, possibly the best sounding F1 car ever made

These are some of mine, but what are yours?

My choices include the MP4/4 as above and I'm quite keen on Lotus!:

Let's not forget the guy who designed the Lotus 97T should also be remembered for the monstrosity that was the Ligier JS5. Google it but you may have to remove your filters first.

You're not a big fan of the Ligier JS5 then, the air intack reminds me of a Smurf hat :lol:

I don't know how the team could've let it get as far as a race. Someone must have realised it was wrong, in so many different ways.
