E-Type voted greatest all-time car

JAGUAR'S iconic 1960s E-Type has won the race to be crowned the "greatest car of all time" in a new poll of motorists. The car was put at the top of the podium from a list of 100 by more than 2,000 British drivers quizzed by One Poll for the Discovery Channel ahead of the return of its Wheeler Dealers show next week.
