Following on from deQ's fascination with the BMWs current grille design direction - who has thoughts on their favourite grilles through the ages?
Some that spring to mind for me are -
1967 Pontiac GTO with the stacked headlights and the inward tapering grille somehow managed to combine aggression with elegance, height with width and still looks fresh.
Bugeye Sprite. Is there a happier car?
Jag E-type lightweight. Try not to think of a guppy.
2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia. Poor old Alfa doesn't get it right like they used to but this works.
Mercedes Benz 540 K. Now that's Teutonic!
The Diana Dors Delahaye. Look at it long enough and it starts to look...err...anatomical.
That's enough to get it started.
