Autocar.co.uk readers have chosen the Range Rover Vogue as their Car of the Decade.

Autocar's resident car experts nominated and championed 17 great cars launched during the past ten years for readers to choose from. Of more than 7500 votes, some 18% - nearly a fifth - were for the Range Rover Vogue, a car launched in 2001 to widespread acclaim.

"The Range Rover is a fine choice for Car of the Decade," said Autocar editor Chas Hallett. "Most polls like this have results skewed towards the latter end of their timescale, but not this one. That the Range Rover was launched nine years ago yet remains a benchmark speaks volumes for the brilliance of its design - and for the taste of the people who voted for it."

The Range Rover saw off strong showings from the MkII Lotus Elise, which took second place with 12.5% of the vote, and the Bugatti Veyron and Nissan GT-R, which each polled 8.8 percent of the total to finish joint third.
