Saw a white car this morning that looked very like a class 180 nose in shape, complete with the ugly "evil eyes" light fittings; a close look at the badging revealed it to be a Honda Jazz.

That shape has an interesting pedigree. It started with Bugatti [link], then went via the A4s to the 180. The Veyron also has some evidence of that shape.

Saw one of these Mitsubishi "i Miev's" on the road today. Uncanny resemblance to a Pendo. Wonder how close it would look in Virgin livery?
