Very interesting. But why do they make such prototypes so ugly? No one wants to drive in that. Even blind people would avoid that.

LOL yeah it looked slightly better on the show. The driver was complaining about the heat on the day but that review says Aircon is one standard feature Big Grin I also noticed they mentioned a 5 door family saloon version for full production Tongue
