Car of the Year 2007 : 8 nominees instead of 7

Round one is over for the COTY 2007. But instead of having 7 nominees, this year we're going to have 8 cars compete (from a total of 41 contenders) for the first place as there was a tie in points for the seventh place. For the final vote, the 58 members of the jury will have to apportion 25 points among at least five cars, providing a written justification of their choice. If you're asking for my personal opinion, I think that the three most prominent players for the first place are the Citroen C4 Picasso, Ford SMax and Honda Civic. The result will be announced on November 13th, 2006.

• Citroen C4 Picasso
• Fiat Grande Punto
• Ford S-Max
• Honda Civic
• Opel/Vauxhall Corsa
• Peugeot 207
• Skoda Roomster
• Volvo C30
