I can understand why someone would dislike the Mini 2000, but I think they
make for a respectable update to an undisputed classic. I will admit to
not knowing enough about it's engine specs to make any knowledgable
comment, but marketed correctly, they could easily compete with the VW
Beetle, Mercedes A Class and the typical output of any other competitors in
its class (e.g. Ford Focus). Speaking of...did the A Class ever catch on
in Europe?
I'm also quite a fan of the new Ford concept car designed by J. Mays
recently featured in Wallpaper* (name eludes me, sorry....ci3 or
something?) The only problem with Fords though is that well, they're still
Fords.
Scooter transit? How about:
Subaru Brat
Chevrolet El Camino
Ford Durango
Now excuse me while I duck from the tomatoes being hurled at me.

p.s. Just kidding about the pickup recommendations.
p.p.s. In other transportation news, how about Peter "I'll do anything for
a buck" Max painting planes for Continental in 2000? I actually think it's
a great idea, very in line with the Calder planes for Braniff.
