How can a 2nd generation Elise be greater than an early one? It was the early one that made the impact on the market and made people's heads spin, even if the "new and improved" one was technically better.

"Greatest" is very open to interpretation.

My thinking too - Mini for influencing car design and the Landrover for being everywhere in the world!

Not that I'd want one of the either personally biggrin

I am just asking for your overall opinion, not the car which sold the most, handled the best, was the fastest etc.... just the car you think would be no.1 of all the cars ever made in Britain.

Probably the Mini then. Or maybe something like the Lotus 49.
