1. The winner is everyone's favourite, The Italian Job. It’s pure Swinging Sixties, featuring Michael Caine and Noël Coward, as well as those three Mini Coopers and the greatest cliffhanger ending of all time
2. Cooler than a pair of refrigerated underpants, it's Steve McQueen again, this time in Bullitt. His co-star, a Ford Mustang, was involved in one of the most famous car chase scenes in movie history
3. It's top three time, with the Steve McQueen vehicle Le Mans (1971). The film about the French endurance classic is definitely of its time, but still resonates with car fans today
4. Genevieve is a 1904 Darracq that regularly takes part in the annual London to Brighton Veteran Car Run. It was the star of the 1953 film of the same name, a romantic comedy based on, yes, the London to Brighton Veteran Car Run. Here are John Gregson and Dinah Sheridan in the film
5. Jean Reno, together with a certain Robert De Niro, star in the 1998 crime thriller Ronin, renowned for its car chases through Nice and Paris
6. Herbie is the world's favourite Volkswagen Beetle, with a mind of its own. Pictured is Herbie in its third adventure, Herbie Goes To Monte Carlo (1977)
7=. Ghostbusters was the other film tying for seventh. In the 1984 comedy, the paranormal exterminator service Ghostbusters used this 1959 Cadillac Miller-Meteor ambulance conversion to rid New York of evil spirits
8=. Gone In 60 Seconds was equal seventh. The 2000 film starred Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie among a crew who have to steal 50 cars in 72 hours in order to prevent the killing of Cage's brother by a powerful crime boss
9=. The evergreen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) tied with Back To The Future. Both cars were advanced, but Dick Van Dyke's flying car thrilled several generations of children before aviation was considered old hat and time travel took over
9=. There's no number 10, because two films tied for ninth place. One of them is Back To The Future (1985), a time-travelling trilogy featuring a DeLorean DMC-12. Undoubtedly the most famous DeLorean ever made.
