Jaguar MK2 - Withnail and I

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 20 October 2008 14:21

Ranking: 36       Year of release: 1987 The car: One of the most clapped-out Jag MkIIs you’ve ever seen. Why it’s special: It’s one of many cinematic appearances for the Jag MkII – one of the landmark cars of the Sixties and perfect transport for this idiosyncratic British pair. The saloon is so knackered, the wipers don’t work and the protagonists specialise ...

Rated 4 out of 5

Greg Fountain, 20 October 2008 14:21

Ranking: 20       Year of release: 1981. The car: Citroen 2CV. Why it’s special: It’s great fun to see 007 reduced to escaping in such a lame old sh*tbox after his Esprit explodes. The 2CV mysteriously does a sterling job of keeping two pursuing Peugeot 504s at bay in a chase involving switchback roads through steep-sloping olive groves. Best bit: The ...

Rated 5 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 20 October 2008 14:21

Ranking: 3        Year of release: 1969 The car: Mini Cooper S Why it’s special: It’s the best loved screen moment for the original Issigonis Mini. And films don’t come with better – or more literal – cliff-hangers… Best bit: All of it, basically. The Italian Job has one of the epic car chases in British cinema history. It’s hard to ...

Ranking: 22        Year of release: 1976. The car: Ferrari 275 GTB (audio), 6.9-litre Mercedes 450 SEL (actual car). Why it’s special: It’s nine minutes of flat-out driving across Paris. In traffic. With pedestrians. No closed roads, and no safety considerations. Best bit: All of it. It’s a single take of nine minutes, as that’s all the film the camera could ...

Rated 3 out of 5

Tim Pollard, 20 October 2008 14:21

Ranking: 28       Year of release: 1962 - 1969 The car: A virgin white Volvo P1800. Why it’s special: Bit of a swizz this one. There was a Saint film, but it featured other Volvos. The one voted for in our poll was the classic Sixties P1800 from the TV series. It's one of the most elegant Volvos in the Swedes' ...

Citroen XM/Peugoet 605 - Ronin

Rated 5 out of 5

Ben Pulman, 20 October 2008 14:21

Ranking: 24       Year of release: 1998. The car: Citroen XM. Why it’s special: Simply because it features several brilliant car chases, including the most incredible chase sequence ever committed to celluloid – a rip-snorting thrill ride through Paris in which Robert de Niro drives a Peugeot 406 in pursuit of a BMW M5. Best bit: The whole of the Paris chase ...
