Revolting Rover
British fashion designer turns his 'talent' to the Rover 25

No. Perhaps if it was grey/silver/black with subtle FCUK or DKNY labels, it might.
As it is, it looks like an Indian restaurant crossed with My Little Pony. No self respecting queen would be seen dead in it.

As much as I am repulsed by the hideousness of this concept, I like some of the ideas, such as the transparent, backlit cubbies. This is where loony fashion designers have thier place. They have a tendency to come up with ideas no other designer in any other discipline would. This can spawn other ideas that maybe, with refinement could become really smart. Apart from anything, we're all talking about a Rover 25 here, surely the creation of this LSD induced tandoori wagon was worth it just for the publicity.
Well matey boy Williamson or whatever his name is, is going to be a design consultant for Rover. As has been said back in this thread, he will at least throw some wacky ideas into the melting pot.
Let's face it that's what the mainstream motoring industry needs currently. I'm bored stupid of 'lifestyle' vehicles catering to some mythical windsurfing pantyliner generation.
If it takes a Chicken Rover Masala to do it then good luck to him.
