Occupying the corner office is not just about the seat and the clout; it’s also very much about the drive – the drive to succeed, and the wheels you drive.

Not surprisingly, Rolls-Royce reported a 22 per cent rise in regional sales in the first half of 2012; BMW Group Middle East saw sales increase by 13 per cent during the period, and Audi is all set to open its biggest showroom in Dubai later this year.

Gautam Sharma, the group editor of Autocar Middle East and F1 Racing magazines, lists the wheels that make the cut and explains why they stand out from the rest.
