What is the most loved car in the UK?

[RoseyG21]

Enough of the unhealthy hating!

What car do you feel the vast majority of us would like to have?

My three choices would be:

1. Original Mini
2. X300 XJ
3. Lotus Elise

[Codswallop]

4. Defender.
5. Range Rover Classic (this would be my choice).

6. MX-5
7. 911s

[LordHaveMurci]

By the masses? Probably a Ford I'd guess, Mk1 Escort or similar.

[RevYob]

I guess Defenders & classic Minis always seem to be a welcome sight. Old jags are nice to see around too.


And TVRs, naturally.

I suspect it's this Range Rover:

Brilliant...a passionate man! I hope he gave it time to cool down!

Not that I particluarly like them but the Morris Minor has to be up there in the most loved stakes.

[Zwoelf]

Most PHers or most "normals"?

The former would be a multi-car garage consisting of an MX-5, an Elise, an E36 328i, an E39 M5 and at least one LandRover product, varying according to the individual level of financial masochism and technical ability. Plus at least one hypercar.

The latter: Something that does 60mpg+ has free VED, low insurance, is cheap AND doesn't depreciate, costs no more than £100pa to service and will never, ever, ever have any faults.

Classic Minis and DB9s?

[U T]

The Morris Minor Traveller is a car that seems to make people smile.

I don't fancy the sin bin; hence posting the censored version of the picture. If it's OK for Top Gear to broadcast on BBC Two to millions of viewers, then it should be OK on here.

[EDLT]

Judging by the "What car?" threads, some sort of BMW.

Cunning. The censoring makes all the difference in the world

[Chris_]

If the question is, most loved by the general public and that put a smile on the face when they see one, I would say;

1) E Type
2) Aston Martin DB5
3) Mini

[FreeLitres]

Jaguar X-Type

[RoseyG21]

What about big bentleys. The arnage or older continentals

[e8_pack]

Any 90's RS badge or old hot hatches - pug 205 is still a great car.

if they could make a new sports hatch without safety features that would top it.
