Hi guys,

Just found this,

http://www.telegraph...C-mostviewedbox

It is a link to the Telegraph website. There is an article regarding the top 100 most beautiful cars ever made.

And the classic mini got in at 91st, just ahead of the Nissan 300ZX! (speed isnt everything lol) I know we would all like to see it higher up the scale, but that aint too bad at all!

It beat some real corkers like the Toyota 2000 GT, the Triamph Spitfire, Stag, TR4, TR5 and TR6. Have a look.

(new mini didnt get a look in)

There is a bit on there to add a message to the site. i have done so stating that the mini needs to be moved up a notch or two! Have a look and let me know your thoughts.

do you really follow a poll that puts the citreon DS 2nd?

[panelbeaterpeter]

Oi! The citroen DS (The car in their picture is actually an ID) was an amazingly well designed car. Had lots of features that no other car had at the time, but are now the norm, like disc brakes. At number 32 they have a Karmann Ghia, should have been higher in my opinion but hey. Anyway, I noticed they used a picture of one of the last ones, which were the ugliest and furthest away from the original design. Why can't people research these things?

OH YES E-TYPE AT No.1!!!!


And rightly so.

[Down&Out]

woo an e type at no 1 looks a bit like ours

[s_robinson91]

U got an e-type, what type my dads got a mk1 FHC.

[cap'n crunch]

how is the GT40 only at 39! should be waaaay higher

[johnnie]

So a Maserati Ghibli is better looking than a Mustang?????
The fact that the 1967 Shelby GT Mustang (Eleanor) isn't in the top 2 shows it’s been put together by the blind or stupid or both.

[s_robinson91]

an e-type at no1

No way!!! the E-type is a lovely car u must be blind or something!!!!!!!!!!

[*DJH*]

no mate, i've got taste. the e type is frigging ugly and out of proportion. the c and d type are way nicer than that.

[s_robinson91]

No they are on a level par, the e-type is spanking gorgeous!

[HARBER07]

Im not a huge fan of the E-type but i could live with it . Has to be the AC Cobra for me though. I saw a bunch of 4 ORIGINALS last year at a show and they were sweet as.
