I don't even think the most ardent Francophile would claim that the Renault Safrane was one of the 1990's greatest cars - not even in loopy Biturbo form. Nor the ZX for that matter!!

1. Ford Focus
2. BMW 5-series (E39)
3. Lotus Elise
4. Porsche Boxster
5. VW Golf Mk IV
Each of these, in their own way, either raised the bar significantly in their own sector in one or more disciplines, or saved their maker's bacon.

Methinks this one's an '80s mobile originally, even in 8.32 form.

So you found it so hard to limit your choice to five, and lets be honest, who could pick between a Nissan Primera and an RS2, that you've listed the lot. Brilliant.
