Car Icons....

[slomax]

Just thinking about iconic cars that have been produced.

Obviously you have the obvious ones
-Mini
-E type
-AC Cobra
-Citroen DS
-etc etc etc

But, what about those curveball vehicles that are icons too.

Here are a few that i think should get a mention
-Reliant Robin
-Smart fortwo
-2CV
-Ford KA
-BMW M1
-Jaguar XJ
-Honda NSX

now- over to the masses, what cars would you suggest?

The Sierra Cosworth, as recognisable as it gets.

Merc SL

[Jayho]

Was it Audi Quattro which brought 4wd to the masses?

FIAT 500 (But could be the retro fad we're having)
Mazda RX-7 (Good use of Rotary and turbo )

Then the pistonheads usuals
MX-5
Ford Puma

I agree that the Lotus Elan is an icon.

But are you saying that the MX5 is not an iconic car also?
