Awww, I remember the van! My parents drove a Toyota Previa when I was a kid, which looked a lot like your rendition of the Leyland-Rover ... van (forgot it's full name), especially in the front part. .

Also, while I had totally forgotten you did one, that's the best Westwind I've seen so far.

Thanks! But yeah, that van was only a couple of years ahead of the real world designs at the time... which made it look great when it was published, but now it doesn't look science-fictiony at all...

No. Like the drones, it looks ... disturbingly recent. Like much of those 90s cyberpunk settings.

Little did we know cars would become more box-like: [link]

Well, a couple became more box like. Most of 'em have become weird combinations of smooth rounded shapes and knife edges...

makes me thing of that one Buick Wildcat prototype that sadly never made production.
We will never reach the future if we don't start putting glass domes on our vehicles.

Ha! Glass domes immediately make me think of the episode of the Simpsons when Homer designs a car...
