Jaguar E-Type Wins "Most Beautiful Car Of All Time"

Jaguar E-Type

The Daily Telegraph newspaper asked its readers to vote on what they thought were the most beautiful looking cars of all time. The poll has been running online for the last 6 months, and the results are in. Unsurprisingly, the Jaguar E-Type topped the table, with over 4 times as many votes as any other car!

This follows countless other polls in newspapers, motoring magazines etc. where the E-Type won the aesthetic vote ahead of some far more expensive machinery, and it seems the results are similar worldwide with the E-Type claiming first place in most other countries, as well as Great Britain. (Although the vast proliferation of English cars in the top 20 do tend to suggest a slight national bias in this particular survey!)

Other classic Jaguars don't fare badly at all either, with the Mark 2 in 12th place, the D-Type in 11th, and the XK120/140/150 in a heady 3rd position.

The top twenty are listed below for you:

  • 20th - Ferrari 288 GTO

  • 19th - Bugatti Type 57 Atlantique

  • 18th - Ferrari 250 GT SWB

  • 17th - Austin Healey 3000

  • 16th - AC Cobra
