Celebs and their classic cars

The celeb clues: She's an iconic runway model-turned-style icon who once dated bad-boy rocker Pete Doherty (listen to his "Back From the Dead "), is praised for her cutting-edge fashion sense, and who has a pretty good taste in cars. Here she is squeezing out of a tight parking space in her classic Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow.

Bing: Which beauty owns this ride?

The ride: The luxury sedan was first produced in 1965 and cost just over $11,000. It was initially planned to be called the Silver Mist, progressing from the Silver Cloud that preceded it, but this was later changed to Shadow as the German translation of mist is manure.

The celeb clues: There's no question this "Grey's Anatomy" star and Hollywood A-lister, known sometimes as "McDreamy, " is something of a serious motorhead. When he's not acting or flying around a racetrack, he can often be seen driving around L.A. in a Lotus Exige or Porsche 911 GT3 RS.

Bing: Just who is the McDreamy owner of this car? | See him in race car gear.

The ride: He also has a soft spot for classic Jags, including a gorgeous XK120 and this stunning E-Type. Born in the '60s, the E-Type picked up where the XK150 left off by offering stunning looks and an exhilarating drive in a typically British package. It's even rumored the great Enzo Ferrari referred to it as "the most beautiful car ever made."

Bing: Jaguar E-Type

The celeb clues: The Hollywood hardman-turned-politician may be a keen advocate of "driving green," but he's also a fan of old-school motoring, too. This action-movie star (his most famous film?) was married to a descendent of the Kennedys (who?) until earlier this year when it was revealed he had fathered a love child with the family's longtime maid (see a photo of her and the son).

Bing: Who owns this classic car? | See photos from his bodybuilding days.

The ride: When he's not driving around in his fleet of gas-guzzling Hummers, he can be spotted driving up and down the Hollywood boulevards in a classic Excalibur. Built in the '60s in Wisconsin, it was modeled after the 1928 Mercedes SS but was fitted onto a Studebaker chassis and featured a 5,362 cc Chevy engine. The latter grew to a 7,500 cc V-8 in later models.

Bing: 1928 Mercedes SS

The celeb clues: This Hollywood A-lister is known mostly for his romantic-comedy roles and had a cameo on "Sex and the City." In the mid-2000s, he dated another A-list actress (who?) before her marriage to actor Javier Bardem (of "No Country for Old Men" fame). He's now married (to a non-celebrity) and has two children.

The ride: His classic car is the Chevy Camaro Z28. While most movie stars are opting for eco-friendly hybrids, this star has gone for the other end of the scale with this muscle car designed to take on the highly successful Ford Mustang. The Z28 differs from the standard Camaro by featuring an air-induction hood scoop with an intake door that opens under full throttle; oh, and a big Z28 sticker on the side.

The celeb clues: This supermodel married a rocker (who?) from the band The Kills this year and has a daughter from a previous relationship. See photos of her wedding.

Bing: Which iconic runway and print model owns this car? | See a photo of her Vogue photo shoot with her daughter.

The ride: This nimble little MG Midget is handy for nipping around the city. The Midget in question is the first-gen version that featured a 948 cc engine with a lowly 46 horsepower, meaning it was good for a top speed of just 87 mph and capable of reaching 62 mph in a leisurely 18.3 seconds.

The celeb clues: There appears to be a theme with supermodels and classic British cars. First Kate Moss with her Rolls and MG, and now this Australian model, whose nickname underscored her enviable physique. She's known for having appeared on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition multiple times (see photos of some covers).

Bing: Which bombshell owns this ride? | What was her nickname?

The car: She was spotted being driven around London in her classic, drop-top version of the Aston Martin DB5 convertible, which was strictly limited to 123 cars in its two-year production run between 1963 and 1965. Of those, only 19 were made in left-hand drive.

The celeb clues: He is one of the most prolific celebrity motorheads with a collection of cars that would shame most motor museums.

Bing: Who is this TV funnyman/collector?

The ride: One of the cars in his collection includes this 1908 White steam-powered car. Quite possibly the first people mover of its kind, the White touring car could seat seven, and was one of the first official cars of the president of the United States. Needless to say, the birth of the gas-powered combustion engine meant demand for steam cars waned, with the last models rolling off the production line just two years after its launch.

The celeb clues: Here's America's leading talk show host (his show?) proving that classic cars aren't designed to sit in a garage gathering dust.

Bing: His collection is so large he has a site dedicated to them. Check it out.

The car: He's been snapped behind the wheel of his 1930 Duesenberg J Walker Legrande Torpedo Phaeton, cruising around Los Angeles. It was one of the biggest, fastest, most powerful and luxurious cars of its time. Around 481 cars were made before production ceased in 1937.

Bing: Duesenberg

The celeb clues: It's not often you can say supermodel Elle Macpherson and this member of the royal family have much in common, but it appears they have a similar taste in cars. He is also the ex-husband of one of the most famous women in the world before her untimely death (who?).

Bing: Who is the prince of this vehicle?

The car: Here he is driving his classic Aston Martin DB5 convertible to the Cartier International Polo day in Windsor. Very James Bond. This also is the vehicle his son recently drove on his wedding day, which was only the most streamed event of the year (what was it?).

The celeb clues: if there was ever a band that epitomized the '60s, it was the Beatles. The owner of this car is a living Beatle.

Bing: Who is the musician?

The car: If there was ever a car that epitomized the '60s, it was the MINI, so it only makes sense that the Beatles star and the MINI were united for the unveiling of a tribute to a deceased Beatle (who?) at the 2008 Chelsea Flower Show.

The celeb clues: The Hollywood actor might be most famous for his role in an iconic action-movie trilogy (which one?), which offers a take on what the future might hold.

Bing: Which actor owns this ride?

The ride: He clearly likes his old-school Porsches, as he's snapped here driving around in his classic 911.
