Miss Motors
Image is everything when it comes to star cars, and some brands are just a cut above the rest. Celebrities know it is just as crucial to be seen stepping out of the right car as it is to be seen wearing the right labels, so here’s a quick guide to the dream brands and who drives them.
What are they?
Mega-luxury cars for those with plenty of cash and good taste. Neatly avoids falling into ostentatious whilst still reeking of class.

Who drives them?
Old money and new money, but very few lottery winners.

Celebrity owners:
David Beckham and a handful of Premiership footballers.

Which one should I buy?
Azure – possibly the world’s sexiest convertible.
What are they?
The ultimate 4x4 that came out of the mud and onto Park Lane. They're equally at home on the farm or on the catwalk, which is why they are the choice of many. They’re also immensely practical and good looking.

Who drives them?
The yummiest of mummies, royalty and their close protection teams.

Celebrity owners:
Kevin Costner, Sean Connery, the Royal Family.

Which one should I buy?
No question – the Vogue SE is it.
What are they?
The original sports car, Ferraris are still winning in Formula 1 and so their kudos on the street remains pretty much untouchable. They’re also enormous fun to drive and are guaranteed to have men drooling at your feet, at least as long as you’re stood next to the car.

Who drives them?
Girl racers with cash, older men with time and plenty of money on their hands.

Celebrity owners:
Jay Kay, Nick Mason, Britney Spears.

Which one should I buy?
The F430 Spider is all you need.
What are they?
The sensible yin to Ferrari’s yang, Porsche make the only high performance cars that are comfortable and reliable enough to be used all the time. They’re also a bit more subtle, which can be a good thing in the wrong part of town.

Who drives them?
No longer city bankers, but well-heeled and smart girls and boys who like their speed.

Celebrity owners:
Colleen McLoughlin, Cameron Diaz, Jade Goody.

Which one should I buy?
The Porsche 911 is a dream machine.
What are they?
Back to reality – here’s a celebrity special that almost everyone can afford. The new Mini has been a worldwide hit, it has cheeky charm, is fun behind the wheel and everyone wants one of their own. Best of all, there are hundreds of different ways to personalise your car, so the chances of turning up at party with the same style Mini as another reveller is almost impossible!

Who drives them?
Everybody, but it still cuts a dash.

Celebrity owners:
Sharon Osborne, Madonna, Jayne Middlemiss.

Which one should I buy?
A Cooper will do just nicely, and spend ages choosing the colour!
