Most Reliable Cars 2021| Top Gear
This Top Gear-style list makes a case that a surprising range of cars, from Toyota workhorses and the Land Cruiser to Volvo's P1800, Mercedes W123 and air-cooled Porsche 911, can sail past 300,000 miles, with anecdotes of owners who ran them to a million or more. Its tone is jokey and hyperbolic, but beneath the banter it is a practical argument that conservative engineering, mechanical sympathy and robust design, rather than luck, explain why certain models outlast nearly everything else on the road.
