There are a few cars that tend to dominate the banger scene in the UK. These used to be Jaguar xjs/xj6/xj40, many other models Volvo 240s (normally estate models) the main one being the Ford Granada mk1/mk2. The MK3 Granada wasn't such a success as they do not seem as strong, a trait that the MK3 shares with the Sierra. For the smaller meetings, often referred to as "unders" meetings, the Ford Cortina and Capri were the usual weapon of choice. Unlimited meeting tend to be dominated by big American cars, known as "Yanks." However, these days, with the older vehicles diminishing from British roads, newer vehicles have been pressed into banger racing service. The Vauxhall Cavalier and the Nissan Bluebird have developed a following and are used almost everywhere, the Bluebird being more dominant as some will say that they are a stronger car. The fact that they are front wheel drive also gives a substantial advantage to the older rear wheel drive vehicles which are becoming increasingly rare on UK raceways.
