The iconic Aston Martin DB9 has been voted the nation’s favourite car of the past 25 years, in a poll to discover which car is the nation’s best loved motor of the ‘80s, ‘90s and noughties years by Direct Line Car Insurance to mark its 25th anniversary this week*. One in ten Brits (10 per cent) said the Aston Martin DB9, synonymous with James Bond, was their favourite car of the past 25 years, while the Volkswagen Golf GTI, the original boy racers’ favourite ‘hot hatch’, secured second place in the vote (5 per cent). The BMW MINI, the modern take on a long-term classic, came in third place (4 per cent). Motorists were asked to vote for their favourite car from a list of 30 of the most iconic car models from 1985-2010, from the ‘80’s Audi Quattro, most recently made famous for its starring role in the TV series Ashes to Ashes, to the DeLorian, the legendary car from the Back to the Future films, to the ‘90s everyman’s classic the Ford Mondeo. The quintessentially British Jaguar XJ was named the second most popular car by voters in the East of England and Wales. More
