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

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.
In a White Room, With Black Curtains, By the Station.

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
As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I've got a little list-- I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed-- who never would be missed!
