The motoring dealership Jardine Motors has revealed the best-looking car brands currently selling in the UK, according to motorists.<\/p>\n
According to a study conducted by Moneybarn, only 32 percent of UK drivers think the design of a car is important, however nearly half believe they represent their owner\u2019s personality.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson from Jardine Motors noted the way many cars are styled is based on a golden ratio.<\/p>\n
They explained: \u201cThe ancient golden ratio has been used historically to measure something, or someone\u2019s beauty by its, or their proportions. Using the formula, we can find out how aesthetic a car is scientifically to the public eye by calculating its width against its height.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe closer the decimal is to the golden ratio\u2019s calculation of 1.61803398875, the more attractive the car is stylistically. And with cars varying in lengths and sizes across brands and models, this will determine, scientifically, if the most attractive car brand matches the public opinion.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Audi is the most attractive car brand, not only by public opinion but also according to science, and it is the sleek, sporty Audi TT which clinches first place.<\/p>\n \u201cThe golden ratio has determined that this is scientifically one of the most aesthetically pleasing cars and, by extension, the drivers must be too.\u201d<\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
