Tomorrow's World's resident petrol head William Woollard reports on a special car designed by David Ogle, that makes extensive use of glass and is replete with built-in luxury features.

The car has twenty-two rear lights, pop-up head lights with their own windscreen wipers and washers, a dashboard panel that indicates trouble in parts of the engine, and a heads-up-display that reflects onto the windscreen. The top of the car is made from a specially heat resistant glass, giving it an extraordinarily sleek appearance.

Sadly for those of you already feverishly rummaging around for your chequebooks, the car is a one-off prototype.

Originally broadcast 11 January, 1972.
