Thread: Ten Iconic British Cars.

Always loved the E-Type Jaguar.

The Morris Minor must be #11.







What is the Caterham doing there?
Surely the original Lotus should be included instead.

I thought the Range Rover classic or the car that started it all for Land Rover,the lovely Series I,would have got a mention ahead of the Defender.

My list would include the Rover P6, RRC and the Bristol 411 or 405.

Interesting that the well known London taxi is not there.

Here's my offering



It was my first car and until this years purchases my favourite.

I learnt to drive in it and owned it from 1990 to 1996. Had to sell it as fitting 2 toddlers in the back safely was too hard. Sold it to my dad who kept it for about 5yrs then sold it to a musician who was rear ended and I think the car was written off.

Absolutely loved driving it. Double clutching for first gear, had a crank start for when the starter motor gave up.

I always laugh when I see the ads for push button start cos you turned the key and pushed a button on the dash to start.

The thing could move as well, people used to get a shock when I used to leave them behind at the lights.
