A meteor is heading to earth, zombies are shuffling their way towards you, and a deadly virus is giving people terminal cases of the hiccups. You’ve got precious little time before the world vanishes out of existence and you need a ride to see it all out. Welcome to the last cars you’ll ever need…
Ford Raptor
It’s got a 3.5-litre V6 with 450 horses and 510lb ft to play with, it’s the size of a house, and it’s set up to take on stuff like the Paris-Dakar with ease. It’s essentially the go anywhere, do anything car that survivalists have posters of on the wall of their nuclear bunker. Ok, it’s not got the shiniest interior, and you can only have one in LHD because it’s not really meant for the UK, but who cares if it’s too wide for a road? Just drive OVER any obstacles.
Volvo 850 T5
We all know that Volvos of old were made of practicality and rocks. Find yourself a T5 amongst the rubble and you’ll be able to mow down the undead, and maybe outrun the meteor for a few seconds. Hell, you may actually survive the whole thing and have to restart the human race from the back of your estate.
Ferrari F40
If you’re going to get terminal hiccups while the earth’s crust cracks in to a dozen explodey chunks, why not spend it hammering around in one of the most iconic supercars ever made? Can’t take ‘em with you…
Land Rover Defender Works V8
The Land Rover Defender is one of the most iconic off roaders in the world. They’ve seen military service, worked the land, and ferried countless children to school from lovely detached cottages in the countryside. However, until JLR’s SVO team stuffed a 388bhp V8 under the hood it was able to go anywhere, sure, but only very slowly. Now though? Those zombies will be eating your dust.
Tesla Model X
Of course, there's not likely to be any electricity when the world comes to an end, but before you run out of juice in your electric Tesla at least you'll benefit from air filters the company says it has tested against a number of biohazards. Perfect for a post-nuclear hellscape. Or Salisbury.
