1) Stunt Car Racer - a big favourite for me on the Amiga, but surprisingly playable on Speccy as well.
2) Rick Dangerous 1
3) Xenophobe

128K Stunt car Racer all day for me, one of Pete Cooke’s marvels.

And why is it Hitler who’s strangling the poor fellow. This seems like a very dark game to me!!!

I don't know where to put my vote here. I think i played these on Amiga, never on speccy.

I mostly played them on the ST myself, but there's one stunningly good Spectrum port in there.

Stunt Car Racer easily won this, with 21 votes.

A distant second for Rick Dangerous 2, with 7 votes.

And way back in third place, with just 2 votes (still 2 more than Oriental Games), it's Xenophobe.

Proportional results:

Rick Dangerous 2 12
Stunt Car Racer 12
Xenophobe 6
