I might as well come clean: I know nothing about fashion.
So it is with some trepidation that I introduce you to one of the world's leading fashion designers, Ralph Lauren. Mr Lauren designs clothes for a living and that, ladies and gentlemen, has exhausted my knowledge of the man. Sorry Ralph.
However, Mr Lauren has other strings to his bow. He may make his living designing underpants, but he's one of the world's biggest petrolheads. And thanks to the money he's made designing hats and whatnot, he's been able to indulge his passion by amassing one of the most impressive car collections in the world.
What follows is a stroll around the Ralph Lauren virtual garage. And remember -- some of these cars are extremely rare, so don't touch anything.
