Nothing too girly i suppose.... definately nothing pink..... (dont wanna get laughed at!) maybe a full sized mirror under the driver's sun screen with room to store some make-up ummm.... an in-built aroma from the fabric to disguise all the nasty boy smells when they get in.... good so far?

Has to be small, have plenty of holes to stuff things, plenty of bootspace.

yep, so far extra smart storage is top of the list, as is swapable seat covers and pedals that collapse in an accident to prevent possible leg/ankle damage....

i no what u mean, the projects aim is to design a car for everyone, but take in to account the needs of a women more.

Ok then lets ask my mum: I think that her ideal car is loads of storage ie tissues and other stuff and a very big boot. Her car is full of stuff.

Rubbish, a car liked by most everyday women is despised by men. Girly cars like Yaris', Corsa's, low end Clio's, Tigra's, all these are suggestive girly cars because of their feminine appearence. Fair enough, they can be made to look better than factory standard, but there is no doubting that they are fairly girly cars. Women have different tastes to cars IMO, since they are more into the looks of the car rather than the functionality and technical aspects of the car. My girlfriend keeps saying that the Ford Ka is the sexiest car on the roads, i despise her thoughts on this, since it is small, slow and oh so common. Its not a 'mans' car. A 67' Mustang on the the other hand...
