2012 New Car Championship
We name the best new cars of 2012, with 72 contenders for Gold, Silver and Bronze
On your marks, get set... go! As Great Britain prepares to host the most famous sporting event in the world, we have decided to celebrate.
To commemorate the 2012 London Olympics, we have conducted our own New Car Championship, where we name the best cars in 12 popular sectors.
In each category we tell you which models deserve to stand on the top step of the winner’s rostrum, and we also award silver and bronze medals. We even highlight the cars that didn’t quite make the podium.
And to ensure you don’t sink your hard-earned cash into an also-ran, we tell you which models fail to make it out of the starting blocks altogether.
So, if your current car is about to throw in the towel, our 25-page guide will help make sure its replacement is a genuine contender...
