Britian’s Best Car Awards 2012

AutoExpress Magazine has just announced their winners for their “Britain’s Best New Cars 2012”. There were many nominations but only a few were selected or commended for each category. See what they said about some of the cars you can hire directly from Signature Car Hire, offering you the opportunity to see for yourself what you think of these supercars.

Britain’s Best Compact SUV: Range Rover Evoque – Previously awarded “Car of the Year 2011” by Top Gear, its stylish concept-looking appearance and attention to detail does not compromise on its rugged capabilities on this amazing all-rounder SUV.

Britain’s Best Roadster: Porsche Boxster – The Porsche Boxster has shocked the nation with its brand new muscular lines, improved handing and increased performance. The Boxster will always be on top of all other Roadsters as we believe it is one of the best roadster ever made. We love the new style Boxter S so much, we just added one to our fleet.

Britain’s Best Luxury Car: Mercedes-Benz S-ClassWith no doubt, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class will always obliterate its competition when it comes to luxury. Its interior has been stretched for extra leg room yet still maintaining its practicality, there’s no doubt the Mercedes-Benz S Class deserves that 3 pointed star. We are so impressed with this car that we have a fleet of S Class Models to meet any car hire requirements.

Commended Britain’s Best Luxury Car – Range Rover/Bentley Mulsanne – Even with the Mercedes-Benz S Class taking the crown, Range Rover and Bentley never seem to be far away, with Bentley’s new Mulsanne, you feel enriched with leather without compromising performance. Whether it is a Range Rover Vogue or Range Rover Sport, in our opinion Range Rover will always be one of the best SUV’s ever made.

Britain’s Performance Car of  The Year: Ferrari 458 ItaliaSince the release of the 458 Italia, rivals have struggled to match its success. With that screaming V8 that revs to almost 9000RPM hitting 0-60MPH in an impressive 3.3 seconds, it’s no wonder why this performance car deserves the crown.

Commended Britain’s Best Coupe – Bentley Continental GT V8 Even commended, the Bentley GT V8 is still up in high ranks. It’s been complimented on its all new V8 engine that rumbles at idle and creates a great exhaust note when accelerating without getting rid of any comfort that Bentley already offers.
