Stylish, fun to drive and distinct. British automakers have given car lovers many great vehicles. The MGB, Mini Cooper, Jensen Interceptor, and the Lotus Esprit are some fine examples of iconic British cars.
With so many choices, what is your favorite British car?

My choice? 1963 Aston Martin DB5, due to my love of 007 movies.
E-Type Jaguar
S1 Bentley
Pre-War Rolls Royce
Sunbeam Tiger Mark II.
My 1970 TR-6 in Damson Red. In later years, Aston Martins.

1939 Lagonda V12 Rapide
19y0 Lotus Elite(my first car)1955 Aston-Martin Vantage Drophead(4th car)many more over my 75 years. Now 2003 Mercedes sl500.
1989 Aston-Martin Vantage X-Pack
Early MGA’s. Very nice driving cars, easy access to parts. With a few mods they go from nice drivers to very good performance cars. Reliability, performance and eye candy.
I also love my 70 Lotus Europa. Mid engine car.
jaguar xk120 fixed head coupe. extreme british styling still turns heads to this day.
1955 Bentley R Type. Rare, majestic, fast, comfortable and iconic. What more could one ask for?
Austin-Healy 100 M A fun car to drive looking over the drop-down windscreen at the belt secured louvered bonnet…
Jaguar XJ
My favorites were my ice blue 63 XKE when I was in college and my black 95 XJS convertible (27 years ago)
Still enjoy British vehicles today:
White Range Rover/White Bentley
Triumph TR4A
Jaguar XJ220
D and E type Jaguars
1964-5 Aston Martin DB4 & DB5
my 1867 Austin Healy 3000 was my favorite one, followed by my 1964 E Type. Liked my Triumph Stag but the engine issues certainly took it out of the running of favorite. Driving a 2020 Range Rover Sport which is a joy. My wife likes the Bentley Continental.
Sunbeam Tiger!
Ahh a Get Smart fan
Yea!
The amazing Morgan Aero8 GTR, the Morgan Aero8- any dark color, although I am partial to their deep Navy blue. Pre-war Lagondas and Invictas a close 2/3.
Can’t believe I’m the only Morgan fan. Philistines!

Everyone have a lovely holiday!
Be well!
Jaguar XKE Convert
All things Jaguar
Your are right. Most elegance cars Jags. up to 2003.
Lotus Cortina
I’ve liked the Jensen Interceptor since seeing one come into the Chrysler dealership that I worked at when I was 17. Still a beautiful car!
TR 6
MORGAN !
Austin Healy MK III tied with Marcos GT. I owned one of the Marcos GT cars, and while it was a pain in the but to maintain, it was fast, got 25 mpg, could not be rolled. Combo lousy car/ wonderful car. The Healy was much more civilized and was a true hoot to drive. Both had ground clearance that kept you out of drive-ins!
