3 Cars that define British motoring.

1. A P6, because it defines what can be achieved when everything is working as it should in the design and manufacturing process.
2. Austin Allegro, because it defines what can be achieved when everything is going terribly in the design and manufacturing process.
3. Austin FX4 taxi, chose this one because it is such a British institution, designed to do a job and is still doing it even now albeit in a slightly modified form. Anywhere in the world a black taxi is recognised, people holidaying from abroad view going in a black taxi is an essential part of their holiday. Not only is it functional it also represents British aesthetic design too, a typical curvy Austin in a lot of respects.

Austin 1100/1300 did the same before rust got to it

Aston Martin DB5 - quintessentailly (is that the right word?) English
