100 Greatest Cars
Nominees
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ
Cadillac Eldorado - 1959   Won the war of the fins in Detroit, hands down, and went on to become the king of kitsch. Also immortalised in 'Pink Cadillac' by Natalie Cole, who claimed 'we can park it out in back/ And have a party in your pink Cadillac.'
Caterham/Lotus Seven - 1973   The superlight, super-agile Seven affords its owners some of the most unadulterated driving pleasure available. As a club racer, it'll run rings around Porsches and Ferraris.
Chevrolet Corvette -  1958   America's answer to the performance cars on offer from Europeans in the late '50s. Fibreglass sportscar went on to become an icon in its own right.
Citroen 2CV - 1948   Designed to carry a basket of eggs across a ploughed field without breaking one of them, the 2CV charmed Gallic peasants and Francophiles alike.
Citroen DS - 1957   The DS's unique hydraulic suspension cemented Citroen's reputation as a maker of comfortable cars, but its unusual, sleek profile made it a style leader from day one.
Citroen Traction Avant - 1934   A national institution in mid-century France, the Traction Avant was the first off-the-peg model to feature single-body (monocoque) construction mated to front-drive and new torsion bar suspension. For the era, this was spaceship design.
Citroen SM - 1970   What do you get when you cross the most technically advanced car in the world with the engine know-how of Maserati? The most eccentrically loveable supercar ever.
