Photos: 16 best green cars at the British Motor Show 2008

Tesla Roadster

I had to fight to get near this car, which was the green queen of the show. It's certainly a gorgeous-looking bit of kit, though the Lightning easily rivals it for sports style. You can order one in the UK today -- nearly 100 have been ordered across Europe already -- but don't expect delivery until May next year! In the UK, we can only order the pricey limited edition version which clocks in at a cool £79,000.
