    The Best BTCC Car of All Time....

    I know this has probably been done already but I'm just wondering what everyone thinks is the best car the raced in the BTCC is.

    I want to know The Car, Best Livery, Best Driver etc.

    I'd say the Astra Coupe, VXRacing 2004, James Thompson

    What about you....?

    1997 Renault Laguna, no contest (well in my opinion at least)

    Whaaaat!

    Sierra Turbo Cossie, surely no contest?!

    If I were to be biased then it would have to be Audi A4 - Vorsprung Durch Technik! My father bought a spanking new one when it was first released and has been loyal A4 customer ever since.

    The problem with the Sierra Cosworth's is that they never had anything to race against...

    Easy one this, the 1996 Audi Sport UK A4 Quattro just looked awesome in silver with the red rings on it.

    So probably not BMW 320i, J-Team Motorsport 2007, Jim Pocklington? :

    It's a tricky question, as I can only comment on cars from 1992 onwards (I've only ever seen a couple of races from the before the super touring era). I quite liked the 2005/06 Honda Integra with Matt Neal. Joachim Winkelhock's 1993 BMW 318i was another good one.
    I think the best livery of any car good or bad was that on the 1999 Arena Motorsport Renault Laguna.

    In terms of winning championships it's either got to be the Vauxhall Astra Coupe or the Mini; for my money it's the Mini.

    John Whitmore and John Love took the car to the Championship in 1960 and 1961, and Richard Longman won back to back in 1978 & 1979, some 18 years after the first time it won the championship.

    The Mini also had victories at Bathurst, several Monte Carlo Rally wins, as well as the BTCC and therefore I think is probably one of the "greatest cars ever raced", let alone in the BTCC.
    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

    For me its the MG ZS. I have been watching BTCC since 1996, but really got into it when MG returned and even bought a ZS.
