Thank you!

More than 23,000 of you voted for your favourite new cars of 2011, making Driver Power the biggest survey of its type in the UK.

Once again, you got straight to the heart of everything you love and hate about your cars, your views couldn't have been clearer.

Your top 100 cars are listed below, but before we get stuck into the highlghts, let's take a look at the winners!

Skoda's domination of this year's survey is plain to see. Three out the top four models come from the Czech firm’s range, which now looks stronger than ever before.

At the top of the pile sits Skoda’s Superb. The flagship model is part executive saloon, part full-sized family car and all-round superstar. Pioneering an innovative twin saloon/hatchback bodystyle in entry-level form, the Superb is also available as a classy estate.

As far as we can tell, only badge prejudice prevents the load-lugger from tempting buyers away from premium badged German rivals. If you’re buying an executive saloon, a family car or even an MPV and the Superb isn’t on your shortlist – it should be!

Joining our trio of Skodas to complete the top five is the Jaguar XF, which finishes in third place, and the Nissan Qashqai, which takes fifth.

With the help of a substantial facelift last year, the Qashqai has launched itself from mid table mediocrity to a sought after top five position. One look at the scorecard and it’s clear the Nissan has cleaned up its act.

Finally, hats off to Jaguar for its third podium finish in as many years. You voted the XF number one for performance, number one for braking and number one for ease of driving - truly a breathtaking achievement. Jaguar has created a model that perfectly meets the dynamic brief of a sporty executive saloon.
