Most Wanted Cars 2020: poll

Decide which classic car you would most want to see brought back from the dead by an all new model

Car manufacturers are never shy about raiding their back catalogues for inspiration when creating new cars. Many have a century or more of history behind them that can, and does, influence their new car design, branding and marketing in a big way. 

Many also have particular models that have gained iconic status over the years. Some have never been out of production, others have been reimagined for the modern era but in some cases, the brand concerned has steadfastly refused to revisit classic cars that the public love. These are the ‘Most Wanted Cars’, models that people would dearly love to see make a comeback, be it for aesthetic, conceptual or emotional reasons.
