disappointing - i was expecting it to be a british university
otherwise, very interesting.
Boring, uninventive, unoriginal, foreign.
I drew better at school when doodling.
I like it - pity they didn't go with middy layout though.
If varsity is this interesting now can I please go back or is 61 too old

i liked how the first photo was taken in the dark, went a bit downhil from there for me i'm afraid
Like the spelling; 'brosure'.
Even babblefish does better than that!!

hahahaha
i thought the whole concept was rather a non event
Sorry if the first impression is "This is so bad we have to hide it in shadows"
Needless to say I didn't look further than that, and they need to get rid of that picture if they intend anyone to do so
I think the whole thing is fantastically well done.
It's meant to be an exercise in a feasible proposition for a full production car.
As such, it's hugely impressive to me.
I thought it was quite intresting but as above the styling was very bland.
I was impressed by the whole process, fantastic learning exercise for everybody involved.
Designing a FWD coupe is always going to be very difficult, accommodating a transerse engine ahead of the front wheels is well tricky. Plus they had
to use all the sub-assemblies such as the pedal boxes, steering etc.
I liked the chassis design and I liked the way they built a jig from the donor shell. The actual shape might not please many people but I can't
think of too many production FWD sportscars that look any better
