SEAT Mii by Mango

4. The SEAT Mii by Mango isbuilt on the belief that thinking small shouldnt mean sacrificing on style. Right.Sadly, this isnt a fruity collaboration, rather a partnership with Spanish fashion brand, Mango. As with any fashion label, if you get up early enough on Boxing Day and wait in a queue for a couple of hours, you may pick up the Mii by Mango for 50% less than the .....

MercedesBenz CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake by Spencer Hart

5. Is this the longest car name in history? Its called the MercedesBenz CLS 63 AMG Shooting Brake by Spencer Hart.

Nissan Micra ELLE

8. The Nissan Micra ELLE. Not a patch on the Nissan Micra Wave. Oh, how we chortled about that one.The problem with the ELLE which saw Nissan team up with the fashion magazine to produce 500 Micras is that the name gets lost in translation. Say you drive a Nissan Micra ELLE and people of a certain age will have visions of the baseline L models from the 1970s and 1980s. Nissan Sunny L, anyone? .....

Maserati Quattroporte Zegna

Fiat 500 You Wear app

10. If only I could find an app that analysed my Facebook photos to discover the colour I wear the most, before telling me what that might mean about me. Said nobody, ever.But Fiat begs to differ. Which is why it developed an app that does just that. Naturally, it also tells you what colour Fiat 500 youre best matched with. .....

Its designed by the selfproclaimed last rebel of the fashion scene, Jeremy Scott, who says the Smart is something that expressed dreams and fantasies.One mans dream is another mans nightmare. Shame on Smart for removing the one interesting feature from the original concept those wings no longer double up as brake lights. .....

Matthew Williamson and the Rover 25

14. We never really had the Rover 25 down as an Art Car, but this represented the start of a partnership between Rover and British fashion designer, Matthew Williamson. Apparently the inspiration for the car was Bollywood meets Moulin Rouge, which might help to explain the pearlescent antique gold that flips to pink.Matthew Williamson said cars are the ultimate fashion accessory. In which case were sorry to say we wouldnt be seen dead in this Rover 2 .....

M W and Rover 25

15. The interior of the Rover 25 Art Car puts us in mind of the result of someone who has walked into Homebase, selected the most lurid paints and fabrics, then had an unfortunate road traffic accident on the way home. In other words a total mess.The door cards and ceiling are dressed in fuchsia and gold Indian silk, the floor is lined with a Persian rug and the dashboard moulded in translucent plastic and backlit in pink. Erniice. .....

Matthew Williamson and the Rover 25 Monogram

16. Fortunately, Matthew Williamsons interpretation of the Rover 25 using MG Rovers Monogram programme was a more subtle affair.The exterior was painted in a very British, Monogram Chatsworth Supertallic bronze paint, with the interior featuring Alpaca leather seats with twin needle stitching. On the outside the 25 sat on 15inch Serpent alloy wheels. .....

Paul Smith and the Jaguar XType

17. Paul Smith is perhaps best known in the car world for his work on the classic Mini more on this later.This, thankfully, is his lesserknown creation the Paul Smith Jaguar XType. To us it looks like a roll of wallpaper has been applied liberally to a standard XType body. But what do we know? .....

Victoria Beckham and the Range Rover Evoque

18. As the Range Rover Evoque was unveiled back in 2010, Victoria Beckham was announced as the brands creative design director. In other words, if youre not a big fan of the Evoques interior, blame Mrs Beckham.It was only a matter of time before a special, limited edition, musthave accessory Evoque Victoria Beckham was unleashed. Strictly limited to 200 pieces, every one of these posh (sorry) Evoques came with a signed handstitched leather wallet. We .....
