This is perhaps Clarkson's favorite auto of all time because he has owned multiple Volvo XC90 midsize luxury SUVsover the years. He has reportedly owned as many as four different first-generation XC90s. According to Business Insider, at first, Clarkson was skeptical about the second-generation Volvo XC90, but he has since said that the well-appointed, stylish, spacious interior; and whisper-quiet diesel engine make it a real winner. We expect him to continue to buy XC90s for many years to com...

“What we’ve got is one of those 11-year-old wonder kids that have just graduated from Cambridge with a degree in quantum physics,” opined Clarkson about the dependable and sporty Ford Focus in his Sunday Timescolumn. “What people want from a family car is safe, heavy, but also economical and fast. They want total reliability and air conditioning standard, and they won’t pay 15,000 pounds for it. It's a chocolate cake that makes you thin, a cigarette that cures cancer, and classical literature...

“The nightmare on Elm Strasse, the supercharged fist in an iron glove,” Clarkson wrote of the Jaguar XJR 4.0 Supercharged limited edition sports sedanin The Sunday Times column when he reviewed this luxury sports car. Not only did he own the XJR V8 in 1998, but before that, he also owned the Jaguar XJR 4.0 in 1995, which was extremely powerful thanks to its supercharged 4.0L engine in the sport-oriented model. Clarkson might just love Jaguars as much as he loves Mercedes.

The Lotus Elise 111s is a fun driving machinethat certainly seems more like a car that Richard Hammond would drive, but Clarkson did own one of these tiny sports cars. The 111S had a VVC Rover K-Series engine with a modified head and VVT-type technology, which produced 158 brake horsepower. If you wanted something sporty and fun, and you were on a budget then this was one of the best sports cars you could get at the time. The 'chip cutter' front grille gave this car a sexy and sleek look, and...

“If you want a relaxing and stylish ride, nothing even gets close to the Jaguar,” Clarkson once wrote in hisSunday Timesdriving column. The car journalist has made it no secret how much he loves Jaguars. He is always giddy and excited when he gets behind the wheel of any Jaguar, and the XJ6 - which was part of the "Experimental Jaguar" linewas no exception. It’s one of many Jaguars he has owned throughout the years since he has been reviewing cars. He just can't help wanting to buy a new Jagu...

Jeremy Clarkson has never shied away from gushing about Jaguar. He loves the British (now Indian) car manufacturer, and he has been a diehard fan of many of the automaker's finest autos - including the Jaguar XJR, which first appeared in 1988. He once owned a 1999 Jaguar XJR with a V8 engine, but it has since sold at auction. Clarkson is so confident in the quality of the Jaguar XJR that he drove a 2000 XJR through the snowy Colorado countryside in an episode of The Grand Tour.

Clarkson has owned a Honda CR-X, and it’s no surprise considering the pedigree of this Japanese sport compact. The CR-X had it all: Nimble handling, superior performance, and impressive fuel economy. This was a speedy and sporty car, and it was extremely popular, especially with gearheads. So, Clarkson naturally gravitated towards this car. "CR-X" supposedly stood for Civic Renaissance X, and that makes total sense because the CR-X was a renaissance for the drab and plain Civic. It was far sp...

Clarkson once owned an Mk1 Scirocco (produced until 1981) and an Mk2 Scirocco, but things have changed a lot over the years. He despised the Volkswagen Scirocco 2.0 TDI and called it a moose. He even put it on his "worst of" list in a Sunday Timescolumn in 2016. “Truth be told, I didn’t really want to drive the new Scirocco, for all the reasons that you read about on the Dear Deidre page in The Sun. You know how it goes. You enjoyed a year-long relationship 35 years ago. You hook up again, th...

Clarkson owned a Toyota Land Cruiser Amazon from 1999 to 2004. For a guy who supposedly loves cars he sure does hate a lot of them. He really didn't like this full-size SUV. Contrary to Toyota's world-renowned reliability, the Land Cruiser Amazon SUV was not dependable according to Clarkson, and he really regretted not springing for the extra warranty. "As it was designed to go from Adelaide to Darwin, it should be able to manage the school run without exploding in a maelstrom of cogs and wir...

In 2015, Volkswagen got in a lot of trouble with its diesel emissions scandal. It leaked that Volkswagen installed emissions software allowing cars to cheat on EPA emissions drive cycle tests. Clarkson didn't care about the scandal at all, and he tweeted that he loved his Golf GTI right around the timethe scandal broke. However, the Volkswagen Golf GTI was not actually one of the Volkswagens that included the deceptive software used to bypass emission standards. While people complain that VWs...

- 1994 Porsche 928 (Father) The 928 has every right standing here at our number one spot and is monumentally special to Jeremy Clarkson. No, it's not because of its immense performance figures, neither is it due to its one-of-kind set of pop-up headlights, nor its out-of-the-box design—the Porsche 928 holds sentimental value for Clarkson.
- Lexus LFA. To quote Clarkson: "If somebody were to offer me a choice of any car that had ever been made, ever, I would take a dark blue LFA—that's how much I love this thing."
- 2012 Ferrari 458 Spider. It's not often that you hear any automotive connoisseur, especially one with Jeremy Clarkson's high standards, want to give a modern sports car a 7-star rating, but here we are.
- Range Rover Vogue. Out of all the cars on this list, the Range Rover is the only non-sports car entry on our list. Over the years, Clarkson has owned more Range Rovers than we can count, and that's mostly responsible for Land Rover's sheer lack of reliability, but that's a mere inconvenience to Jeremy, not a deal-breaker.
- Alfa Romeo GTV6. Clarkson is quoted as saying the Alfa Romeo GTV6 is the "best and worst car" he has owned. Anyone that has owned an Alfa Romeo, known someone with an Alfa Romeo, or has read about Alfa Romeo ownership will understand this.
- Lexus LFA. The Lexus LFA is among Jeremy Clarkson's favorite cars of all time, which is understandable. The sound alone of the 553-horsepower Yamaha V10 is still one of the seven wonders of the automotive world.
- Volvo XC90. Another car Clarkson has heaped glowing praise upon, mainly in his newspaper and website columns in the UK, is the Volvo XC90. They have been a mainstay as one of Jeremy Clarkson's personal cars over the years and he's owned at least four.
- BMW 3.0 CSL. A few years back, in a Q&A session with Drivetribe, Clarkson revealed that selling his BMW 3.0 CSL for a few thousand pounds is his biggest car-selling regret.
