Aston Martin DB9 tops UK’s dream car list

November 14, 2007 by George Skentzos  

Despite the obvious favoritism as Britain’s most iconic super car manufacturer, a poll of over 3,000 UK motorists has found that the stunning Aston Martin DB9 tops the list of ‘ultimate dream cars’ outshining the likes of the Ferrari Enzo and even the Bugatti Veyron.

The notable absence of Rolls-Royce from the list and a poor 8th place finish from Bentley indicates it was more than just patriotism which saw the DB9 take the top spot, with the Vanquish and Vantage V8 not far behind.

The remaining results of the UK poll reads as follows:

1. Aston Martin DB9
2. Bugatti Veyron
3. Aston Martin Vanquish
4. Audi R8
5. Aston Martin Vantage
6. Mercedes McLaren SLR
7. Ferrari Enzo
8. Porsche Carrera GT
9. Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
10. Lamborghini Gallardo

CarAdvice would like to know what your Top 10 list would be, feel free to add your list in the comments section.
