docwra Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Lotus Elan Triumph TR6 (Or TR5A) Jensen Interceptor E-Type The first two were direct competitors and you could argue the last two were as well ........... so which are the definitive cars? There can be only one in each category (but as many categories as you like, Im loving the moon car section ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Name what your car is the definitive version of chaps, not just a list of cars you like Audi Quattro turbo SWB Just a superb car in its day. Lancia Delta Integrale... Was the best of the bunch,brilliant drive. Nissan Skyline R32GTR...Just killed everything when it turned up. Mitsubishi Evo 5... Much better than the scoob,a car than anyone could drive fast... Superb A road weapon. BMW E39 M5.... Much awesomeness and probably the best BMW ever built. Jensen Interceptor FF..Blew my mind when i was a kid,proper GT car. E type.... The most beautiful car ever built ? Bugatti Veyron.. Just for being technically brilliant and very very quick. Auburn boat tail speedster... Beautiful design and exquisite from every angle ...as otherwise stuff like this makes no sense. I'm struggling to think what the E39 is the definitive car of, the E34 was better looking and the E60 the better engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Gotta take some issues here, a 2 seat cant really be an everyday hero (the 350Z is far from a giant killer either) and the Clio V6 isnt really a hot hatch at all, it has an engine where the boot should be. Not picking on Aashenfox either but the Golf Gti, 205, R5GTT et al are faaaaar more iconic than a (mk3 remember) FRS will ever be. And having just seen the last reply, this isnt about what "you" think, its about icons, game changers, seminal cars, decisions that people simply cant argue with. An F type is pretty for sure, but ask 100 people which is prettier and I bet 99 will go with the XKE, even Enzo himself did. European taxi: E class Mercedes Techological marvel: Bugatti Veyron Off roader: Land Rover I think I'd go for the Jeep Wrangler for definitive off roader, after all, most people call any SUV a "Jeep". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That very much depends on your era and whilst its a classic now, the humble Escort was the boy racers (now classified as chavs) car of choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

European taxi: E class Mercedes Techological marvel: Bugatti Veyron Off roader: Land Rover Ok on the Clio, but the Focus RS is probably going to go down in history as the greatest hatch of all time. A hatch that is appreciably better than a Mitsi Evo in just about every respect? RESPECT! If you wanna be boring about it, FINE, the mk1 Golf GTi is the definitive hatch (by definition of the word definitive, despite personally agreeing with Dan, and preferring the mk2 (I've owned five over the years, so I should like them!)). but if each person lists the definitive cars, we won't have much variation, as this has already been decided by history, I just wanted to mix up the game a bit.
