Over 1,000 people voted for their favourite screen vehicle in the survey and the white Lotus Esprit car was the favourite securing almost a third of the vote followed by David Hasslehoff’s car Kit from Knight Rider (17%).

Patrick Oqvist from Yahoo! Search says: " With rear firing mud sprayers, an underwater kit that changes the car into a fully operative submarine, surface-to-air missiles, underwater smoke screens and torpedoes the most desirable screen vehicle has to be Bond’s."
