Ford 021C
The 021C's debut marked the moment that car designers realised they couldn't carry on designing cars to impress other car designers and had to consider what consumers wanted instead. When J Mays, Ford's design director, hired Marc Newson, the Aussie who'd never designed a car before (you might be more familiar with his brightly coloured plastic Dish Doctor dish rack, or his 'Stavros' bottle opener for Alessi) to create a multi-million dollar concept car for Ford, he intended it as a 'wake-up call' to the petrol heads who'd dominated automotive design for decades. It was the first time a car had been unveiled at the Milan Furniture Fair in 1999. Newson's cute 021C - shorter than Ford's existing Ka - looked like a cross between a prop for Monsieur Hulot's Holiday and 2001: A Space Odyssey. To ensure easy access, the rear doors are hinged at the back, front seats swivel, and a slide-out luggage tray is hidden in the bumper. The seats were made by Italian furniture manufacturer B&B Italia, and Prada made a set of luggage specially for it.

the wheels aren't that much of a giveaway, since u can put them on most bmws (there's several E36 318s round here with them wheels, wankers that they are), the main giveaway is the rather attractive vents in the wing just next to the side repeater, only M3s have them.

Mark u gonna go for the SMG version or not mate? :)
