The Mazda MX-5 has been crowned as 2016's UK Car of the Year, beating the Volvo XC90, with the Skoda Superb Estate taking third place.
Launched in 2014, the UK Car of the Year Awards are judged by 27 of Britain's most-read motoring journalists, including Paul Barker, BusinessCar's Editor.
Each judge picks out a top performer in 12 vehicle categories, before deciding the overall winner from their favourites in each class, with contenders for the overall gong ranging from the Smart Forfour to the McLaren 570S supercar.
"With the latest MX-5, Mazda has created the perfect roadster. A lightweight, engaging, simplistic and even practical vehicle, which is an absolute pleasure to drive," said John Challen, director of the UK Car of the Year Awards, while Barker added the MX-5 is "still peerless in its ability to provide motoring joy on a budget."
