We’ve seen – and we’re sure you have too – a lot of places telling you what they think are the top 10 cars to drive before you die, so which should you believe?
Unless you’ve driven pretty much everything and have no personal preference towards a type of car then really it’s just an opinion, unique to whoever wrote the list.
So we did things differently, offering the chance for everyone to vote on what cars they’d choose from a shortlist.
The list had a wide range of cars famous for being fun and desirable, ranging from hypercars and luxury barges to 4x4s and microcars. We asked people to choose whether they would like to drive one or not, (or whether they weren’t too bothered) and whether they’d already driven one, taking the opinion of those with real experience at greater value.
After the numbers were fed through the computers we found the top 10 cars to drive before you die as voted for by the people of the UK.
There are only 10, so your personal favourite is almost certainly not there (if you’re wondering, the Bugatti Veyron missed out in 11th place) – and a lot of our own favourites didn’t make it, like the BMW M3, Mazda MX-5, Citroën DS, Lancia Stratos, even Reliant Robin – but who are we to argue with a public vote?
